Need a way to tote your fur baby with you wherever you go? Check out this list of the different styles of pet carrier bags and dog backpacksand what each can do for you!
Bubble pet carrier:
The newer style of pet carrier bag- Its adorable! Comes in a full view version with the entire front of the bag is one big window, or space capsule style where there is a cute little dome for your pet to peak out of. Usually waterproof, ventilated by a few large holes up top. Some owners like them because they prevent your pet from hopping out. I’ve seen lots of cats in these, which seems to work well for them since kitties are known escape artists 😉
Pet hiking backpack:
This style is a favorite among dogs. It gives them comfort and security, plus the backpack design scores extra snuggle time with the human.
Front legs and head are free for pup to enjoy fresh air. There are usually extra pockets and lots of room for stuff, and lots of possible adjustments for pup’s comfort. Larger, sturdier pet hiking backpacks are usually available for big dogs.
Handbag dog carrier:
For the fashionable pup! Usually resembles a high-end handbag or tote! They are comfortable for the dog inside with foam or other soft padded bottom, and easy for you to carry your small pet with top handles. You’ll usually see this pet carrier bag with an open top or a space for the head out on the side with zipped mesh. Either way your fur baby can breathe easily.
Rolling:
A rolling dog carrier is super easy for airport maneuvers! Takes weight off you and gives your pet a great view! Most will have mesh openings and a padded bottom. Some come with a removable wheel base, so that the pet carrier bag can be stored under your seat. A tip…most cats don’t love being rolled 😉 . These are better for smaller dogs or other pets.
Sling pet carrier :
These are super soft for pet comfort & often resembles a kangaroo pouch lol. Usually adjusts by velcro or adjustable clips. It keeps your dog snuggled comfortably & within view. Smaller, chill dogs love these. Another benefit is the dog sling is often machine washable- so low maintenance!
Traditional:
The one we’ve all seen before! Pretty straightforward- 😊 soft side, well ventilated with mesh sides/top for pet comfort. A fleece or other soft bed bottom is standard & for extra room for your pet when not in motion- many are expandable! These pet carrier bags may be strapped into a car seatbelt depending on strap locations. Most have top handle and/or strap option for human comfort! If you’re plane-hopping, check to see if yours is airline approved before packing your pet.
However you are traveling, be sure to check ahead for pet-friendly establishments and that your pet meets all the other requirements for entry: size, breed, up to date vaccinations etc. Now you can make your trips and adventures comfy & easy! Pick the pet carrier bag for you and get going!
