Wightlink - Pet Booking Information
Note, you don’t need a Pet Passport or special travel documents to take your pet to the Isle of Wight, or onboard Wightlink ferries. The Isle of Wight is one of the UK’s most dog friendly destinations.
To add your cat or dog to your Wightlink booking, when you select your preferred route, simply add the number of dogs or cats that you will be travelling with.
If your pet is prone to unpredictable behaviour in new environments, around new people or other pets then you must leave them in your car during the journey. Remember to keep a window slightly open and make water available. If they are OK with new people and environments, Wightlink have dedicated pet areas on all their car ferries - just follow the signs once you are onboard. There is a comfortable lounge inside the ship as well as access to our sun decks outside for walkies. Registered guide dogs are permitted in all onboard lounges.
