Cory Baizan Robinette has been promoted to chief operating officer at Air Animal Inc. after 30 years in the business.

Walter M. Woolf, Air Animal founder and chief executive, said: “Cory’s leadership in the management of the global pet move process for expatriate pet owners has earned her high marks and consistent 5-star Google reviews over the years. Her experience with all aspects of our business will be an asset to our executive team.”

Woolf opened Air Animal in 1977 as one of only six pet movers in the world. Today, the industry association IPATA (International Pet and Animal Transportation Association) has 440 members and a suite of useful animal safety regulations which Woolf and Robinette helped create.

“The fact that we’re moving family members is always top of mind for our entire Air Animal team, “ Robinette said. “Controlling the logistics and the communication between all the parties is especially important for corporate international moves because the regulations for importing pets to some countries can be daunting.”
