Fort Campbell and Military Pet Transportation
Fort Campbell, straddling the Kentucky-Tennessee border near Hopkinsville, is home to the 101st Airborne Division and one of the Army's highest PCS transfer rates. GoGoPets serves Fort Campbell families departing for bases from Fort Bragg to Joint Base Lewis-McChord, with breed-restriction-free transport and last-minute scheduling flexibility.
Lexington's horse country (Keenwood, Versailles, Paris) creates a unique pet transportation market: horse farm employees and owners relocating to Ocala, FL for winter season use GoGoPets for their dogs while equine transport handles the horses.
Louisville and Kentucky's I-65 Corridor
Louisville is the gateway between the Midwest and the South on I-65 - the same corridor that connects Chicago to Nashville to Birmingham. GoGoPets runs Louisville to Nashville (175 miles), Louisville to Indianapolis (115 miles), and Louisville to Cincinnati (100 miles) as standard short-haul routes.
Bowling Green - halfway between Louisville and Nashville on I-65 - is home to Western Kentucky University and a Corvette manufacturing plant. GoGoPets serves Bowling Green as an extended Kentucky pickup.
