So here is some information to help you get your furry (or scaly or feathered) friend to Sweden.

Julieta founded The Newbie Guide to Sweden in 2015 together with two brave partners in order to ease the journey for newbies in Sweden. Even though Julieta isn’t a newbie in Sweden herself, she has been a newbie in other countries and a newbie in different life situations enough times to know how hard it can be to catapult yourself into new geographical, practical and emotional situations. This has been the driving force behind her work for Newbie Guide and Newbie Learn and why she keeps going when an undisturbed vacation would be so much nicer:-).

Great table of content! Every single thing you should have in mind to bring your pet to Sweden is covered in this course. So nice that I can also browse exactly what I want from the course if it's about dogs, cats, or another type of animal.

For someone who recently moved to Sweden from the UAE with two dogs, this course was extremely helpful. I was able to find information that I wouldn't know where to look for or knew that I might have needed certain paperwork. I highly recommend this course if you are not sure about pet relocation and what might be needed.
As someone who moved their cat from Canada to Sweden, this course covers all the details you need to know about moving your pet to Sweden. I was so impressed with the level of details and tips, and really wish this resource had been available to me when I moved here.
