Who can arrange pet-transport from Kastrup?

Does anyone know of an individual or organisation based in Copenhagen, Denmark, who can organise the transport of pets (specifically dogs and cats) from Copenhagen's Kastrup airport to the UK?

Road/ferry transport of the pets from Denmark/Southern Sweden to the UK is also an option. Assume the animals in question have their EU 'passports' already.

In case future searchers have similar questions:

- we didn't find anyone specialising in animal air transport from Copenhagen / Kastrup (the nearest major international airport to where we live in southern Sweden) - which is not to say there aren't any - it could be we just never figured out the right Danish terms to search on.

- we considered a service which would have done the transport by road to Stockholm and then by air from there to Manchester.

- we also considered a couple of road-transport services, before booking The Pet Transporter, whose usual itineraries take him from the UK back & forth to Iberia, but who is open too to trips elsewhere in Europe - his quote was in the same ball-park as the Stockholm-based outfit's.

- we're not actually travelling until the end of July, so I can't give any recommendation yet.

Another quick follow-up: I can wholeheartedly recommend The Pet Transporter - he did an excellent job in moving our dog & cats from Sweden to the UK.
