Best Travel Accessories for Your Pets

Traveling with a furry friend this year? These are the top travel accessories for pets, whether you’re traveling by land, sea or air!

Whistle 3

Whether or not you’re traveling with your dog in a new location, this is one gadget any dog owner would love — but it comes in handy when you want to monitor your pet’s behavior and health in a new place. This small, waterproof box clips right onto a collar and connects to an app on your phone via WiFi. Then, you get text and app updates on your pet’s location, as well as their activity and whether or not they’ve been active enough based on their age, weight and breed, which may clue you in to any health concerns.

Dog About Town First Aid Kit

If you’re doing any kind of hiking or even just traveling via car with your cat or dog, you’ll want one of these pet-friendly first-aid kits. This particular kit includes not only a guide to pet first aid, but also things like bandages, wound wash, gloves, scissors, antiseptic towelettes and a few things most pet owners hope they never have to use, like fecal sample bags.

Pawhut Carrier Backpack

If you have a difficult time toting your pet in a purse, the Pawhut is another option for taking your pet out and about. The heavy-duty bag is perfect for pets under 20 pounds, and the extendable handle and rolling wheels make it similar to most carry-on bags.

Crate Fans

If your pet is confined to a crate while you’re getting from point A to point B, it can get a little uncomfortable, particularly in warm weather. A dog crate fan can offer a little relief. This quiet device is battery-operated, and can not only circulate air, but also be outfitted with a cartridge for extra cooling power.
