Best Airline Approved Carrier For Small Dogs

Also available at Petco

The Sherpa Airline-Approved Dog & Cat Carrier is perfect for keeping your small dog comfy and by your side while you fly. The inside is lined with soft faux sheepskin, and the mesh sides offer ventilation and visibility.

Because it’s meant to be airplane cabin-approved, it’s only going to fit dogs up to 22 pounds. The Sherpa pet carrier is carry-on approved by most major airlines, but you should contact your airline before flying to make sure it meets their particular requirements. Product reviews indicate it’s been fine with Southwest, Alaska Airlines, Jet Blue, and Delta.

Best Backpack Travel Carrier

If you’re more of a backpack than a shoulder bag person, you might like to carry your pet in the PetAmi Deluxe Backpack Dog & Cat Carrier. It will make traveling through the airport with the pup easy, and the bag fits by your feet on the plane. Like other in-cabin pet carriers, this backpack is meant for smaller dogs.

Best Carrier Sling For Travel

If you have a small dog who prefers to be tucked under your arm, the FurryFido Classic Reversible Dog & Cat Carrier Sling lets you cart them comfortably through the airport or train station hands-free. The sling comes equipped with a safety collar to ensure your dog doesn’t slip out.

Best Travel Kennel For Medium/Large Dogs

Also available at Petco

If you need to fly a large dog, go with the sturdy, reliable Petmate Ultra Vari Dog & Cat Kennel. It goes without saying, but this kennel is too big for in-cabin air travel. It is large enough to fit a dog up to 70 pounds, unlike the above carriers.

Best Portable Food And Water Bowl Set

Also available at Petco

The Gamma2 TRAVEL-tainer is a pet feeding set with two 3-cup bowls. It has a removable carrying handle and seals tightly when you’re not using it to keep stored food fresh and secure.

Best Collapsible Travel Bowl

The PRIMA Pets Collapsible Travel Bowl includes a carabiner for easy attachment to a backpack, purse, belt loop, or your dog’s leash. As the product title indicates, it easily collapses for quick storage and opens up just as fast. It’s a great on-the-go bowl.

Best Travel Water Bottle For Dogs

Trying to offer your dog water from a standard bottle can be challenging. The PETKIT Dog Water Bottle was specifically designed for dogs to drink from. When your dog’s thirst is satisfied, you can easily draw the extra water back inside the bottle, so nothing goes to waste.

Best Dog Backseat Cover

One downside to letting the pup ride in the car is the mess he leaves behind. The PetSafe Happy Ride Quilted Hammock Seat Cover will protect your car’s interior while ensuring your dog is comfortable on long trips.

Best Booster/Car Seat

Also available at Petco

Just like with small humans, a booster/car seat will keep your little dog safe in the car. The K&H Bucket Booster Pet Seat can go in either the front or back seats. It helps keep your dog put while the vehicle is in motion and comfy on those long road trips.

Best Car Harness/Seatbelt

Also available at Petco

Standard car seat belts tend not to work on dogs. The Kurgo Tru-Fit Enhanced Strength Crash Tested Smart Car Dog Harness attaches safely and securely to standard seat belts. This harness was crash-tested and can protect dogs up to 75 pounds (check to make sure you select the right size for your dog.) It works great as a walking harness outside the car too.

Best Dog Barrier For The Car

The Jumbl Pets Heavy-Duty Adjustable Car & SUV Dog Barrier keeps your dog in the cargo area of your car without blocking your view while you drive. It’s easy to set up without tools and won’t damage your car seats.

Best Calming Treats for Travel

It’s hard to explain air, car, or train travel to your dog. All they know is their routine has been disrupted, and they’re surrounded by strange sounds and smells. Calming supplements can help soothe your dog’s travel anxiety.

Cannanine Soft Chews are made from calming hemp oil (not THC), and best of all, when you buy a 60-count container of chews, you help provide 7 meals for shelter dogs.

Pet First Aid Kit For Travel

The great thing about the Me & My Dog Medical Kit is that most of the tools inside can be used on both dogs and people. It contains useful items, such as gauze, an emergency blanket, alcohol wipes, and nitrile gloves. You can see a complete list of what’s inside the first aid kit when you click one of the above links.

On The Go Dog Washers/Cleaning Kits

When full, the Kurgo Go Shower For Dogs can release a 2-minute steady stream of water. It’s perfect for cleaning your dog after a hike or when you don’t have time to stop at the hotel. When you’re done using it, the bag folds up easily.

Best Travel Treat And Waste Bag Dispensers

No one wants to be the jerk who didn’t bring along waste bags, even on vacation. The Fetch Pet Products Double Doodie Poop Bag Holder & Treat Pouch dispenses waste bags and even has a separate ventilated pocket to temporarily store full bags until you find a trash can.

Plus, you’ll probably want to keep your dog happy while they undergo the stress of travel, and this dual treat pouch/waste bag holder makes their treats easy to access.
