Petsfit Pet Dog Carrier Backpack with Upgraded Weight Reduction Design, Cat Dog Backpack with Large Ventilations, Easy-Fit for Traveling Hiking Camping for Small Medium Dogs and Cat, Black

I bought this bag as it fits the dimensions required for a Frontier flight. I had an excellent experience while on a cross country flight with my cat. It can be worn on your back like a traditional backpack swung to the front if you need eyes on your pet but also need to be hands free for things like ticketing or bag retrieval. HOWEVER, there are many things you need to consider before purchasing and understand that your experience may not be like mine.1. My cat was sedated for my flight. He was relatively compliant as a result and was not anxious. As such, he was curled up comfortably while the bag was upright or laying flat when I placed the bag under my seat. An anxious animal that is trying to wiggled around or stand and pace will not work in this bag. My flight was only 5 hours and my pets sedation was effective for this length of time. If you are traveling for a longer period of time than this please consider flying with an airline that has better bag dimensions as this bag is quite confining.2. Animals that are not as flexible as cats (dogs) may not work well with this bag as they require more room to stand and turn around. My partner initially bought this exact bag for our chihuahua mix that is the exact same weight as our cat but he could not tolerate this style due to its height compared to his leg length. Shorter/smaller dogs work best specifically puppies or below average sized toy breeds.3. If you are not conscientious with your movements this can be a bumpy ride for your pet. If you bend, they roll. If you skip or run, they bounce. Again, this can be distressing for anxious pets. You must walk at a normal pace and keep your torso as upright as possible for their comfort.4. My cat is a 13lb bowling ball and I could feel that the entirety of the international airport but I would also walk through the fires of hell for him. If you have back trouble, this is going to be a difficult carry. However, this bag does comfortably fit on top of my carry on (see pros below).Things That I Love:- This bag does fit under the seat without any issue when laid long ways and simply moved the straps to the sides. You will want to comfort your pet and SLOWLY switching from upright to flat. I would also recommend removing the hard pad at the base of the backpack when laying it flat as it gives your pet and extra inch or so to stretch out. While awaiting my turn to deplane I slide this hard pad back into the base of the backpack, remove the pad, and transition my pet back upright. I personally put a thin terry cloth mat that I bought for other carriers in my carry on/personal item (you can only have one or the other with Frontier when flying with a pet) and place this across the bottom.- The hard pad I mention above can be removed with a different zipper located at the base of the backpack so you don't have to move around your pet clumsily.- The base pad also has a zipper on it so you can wash it and remove any pet hair, mess, or spills.- There are multiple zippers around the back to allow you to remove you pet or interact with them mid flight. I can see this being helpful in emergency situations from code browns to simply offering your pet reassurance.- There are pockets! They aren't massive but they can hold quite a few things. I used these to store my phone, ID, credit card, pet treats, etc and it kept me hands free during my TSA check.- The bag can sit on top of luggage and be strapped on. This is helpful when I need a bathroom visit for myself and don't want to put my pet on the floor of the bathroom. The waist strap is made for securing the bag to your body but it is possible to place your pet on top and secure them with this strap so they don't fall off.Overall: I love this bag for the purpose that it was purchased and the price was extremely reasonable.

Super comfortable and good quality! I love it

I chose this one because it looks nice and is more like a backpack than a carrier. While I liked it, my cat did not. She found it dark and claustrophobic, similar to the kennel she hates. (The other colors with mesh on the sides are more suitable for a cat.) The backpack arrived factory sealed with a strong chemical smell. She wouldn't get near it.The photo says the bottom is 11.8 inches long but it's actually around 12.35 inches. The top is 11.8.

This was recommended to me by a stranger in the pet store. I could not find something I liked and he showed me his. He said his cat still loves his at 13 lbs and just sits in it after they arrive home. Our kitty does fine in hers too. I take her shopping and carry her on my back, or we take her on a walk in this backpack. Car rides are easy too with this.

Light and well made. It has mesh so there is air flow for the dog. Our dog is an 11 pound dachshund and he fits comfortably in it.

This thing is so close to being amazing it kinda hurts a little that it falls just short in a few small ways. First, the chest straps do not have enough adjustment so it's only going to comfortably fit a small range of chest sizes. Pay attention to the product specs if you are worried about the chest strap clasp not closing. second, the chest clasp is actually sewed on backwards on one of the straps on the product I received. I hope that's just a one item error and not a product-wide issue but yeah. It adds to the discomfort of the chest clasp that instead of a curve that goes along with my chest it's an inward curve that pokes against my chest. Third, I don't think this thing has enough air holes for my dog to be comfortable in it with the lid closed. Lastly, I don't think this will fit under most airline seats like most airlines require pet carriers to do. This product is sturdy and is made with great materials. It's almost a really great product but ultimately the manufacturing defects combined with the design hiccups lead me to my low star review.

I like the style and look of the carrier. It was easy to get the kitten into it with the multiple wide openings. The kitten is so small I was nervous about putting her on my back and bouncing her around too much. The only thing I would improve is the handle at the top.

Handy to have

Tried a couple different pet backpacks, and this is by far the best! Tall and spacious enough, while compact. Great quality, very sturdy sides and bottom! Some other bags either slouch/slope if your cat weighs more than 5 pounds or are too small that they seem a little cruel. This is the best of both worlds. Top flap rolls open and snaps out of the way. Has a clasp inside to attach to collar or harness. Adjustable, comfortable, padded straps. Nice side pockets. Very happy with this product.

Ich habe mir vor Jahren den Rucksack gekauft, da mein kurzbeiniger Jack Russell an starker Arthrose leidet und keine 3 Stunden am Stück mehr laufen soll.Da wir jedoch gern wandern soll er trotzdem mit.Die Qualität des Rucksacks ist beeindruckend – er ist gut verarbeitet und stabil.Auch nach 2 Jahren kann ich keine Macken am Rucksack feststellen.Mein Hund fühlt sich darin sicher und bequem, und ich schätze die gute Belüftung und die Möglichkeit, ihn von oben und vorne zu öffnen. Das Design ist ansprechend und funktional, mit vielen Taschen für Zubehör. Die verstellbaren Träger und der Brustgurt machen das Tragen einfach und bequem.Ich würde mir den Rucksack jederzeit wieder kaufen.Allerdings finde ich, dass der Hund nicht größer als ein kurzbeiniger Jack Russell sein sollte, da es sonst zu eng im Rucksack wird.

Tem boa qualidade e é confortável tanto para os humanos quanto para os pets. Comprei para viajar com minha gata.

I bought this bag for my toy Cavapoo for her first flight with Aegean Airlines. It doesn’t quite fit the measurements (by an inch on one side) but they didn’t measure it and it fit under the seat fine.Unfortunately my dog had an accident and broke a toe so the bag became her safe place and home for most of our holiday when we were out and about. Considering she didn’t like bags before she embraced this one so much so that she queues up to go in. We carried her on our fronts so she had a bird-eye view of life.We put a cushion in the bottom as it’s quite deep and she prefers to have her head out and hang her broken leg out for extra attention! She used it to sleep in a lot too, we were able to take her into restaurants where they were giving her a chair for us to place her in the bag.It’s sturdy, robust, comfy for both of us and quite stylish. A must buy! I researched so many bags and am grateful I chose this one.

We've used this at least once or twice a week for well over a year now and it still holds up. A bit small for a full-grown cat if you plan on closing them in, but for hanging out it's pretty great.Big pros:- It folds up for easy storage- It's ridiculously sturdy but super light-weight- let's the air flow well which is perfect for warmer days- side pockets are a lot bigger than you'd expect- looks great!A few drawbacks:- no water bottle holders- a little uncomfortable/heavy/unbalanced for longer walks but hard to fix with a moving animal- The location of the tether isn't ideal as the animal can easily jump out and get hung up. We solved this by feeding a leash through the bottom and attaching that to the harness as opposed to the included tether.Overall GREAT PRODUCT if you're looking for an inexpensive pet backpack. Even our vet loves it.
