Wheeled Pet Carriers

Wheeled pet carriers make traveling with dogs a breeze. Whether you are looking for a carrier with wheels for just going around town, or for traveling longer distances (including by air), Pet Frenzy has a large variety of stylish, durable, and comfortable pet carriers for all of your needs.

Similar in design as a suitcase with wheels.
Wheeled pet carriers are designed to work like a suitcase with wheels that you can pull behind you instead of lifting and carrying. Obviously, this makes “carrying” your dog a lot easier and more convenient. Wheeled pet carriers are especially helpful for people with a medical condition that restricts the amount of weight they can lift or carry. Even a small dog can begin to feel heavy when you have to carry him or her for long periods of time.

And speaking of suitcases…
If you are planning on traveling with your pet on an airplane then there is nothing better than wheeled pet carriers for moving through the airport. Easy-rolling wheels will allow you to get through the airport quickly and more efficiently. And dogs get a much smoother ride in wheeled pet carriers than with other style carriers. Dogs tend to bounce around quite a lot in carriers that you lug by the handle or in carriers that you wear with a harness or shoulder straps, especially if you're hurrying to catch a flight!

Most of the pet carriers with wheels in our lineup have a telescoping handle, luggage tags, and handy pockets for easy access to essentials such as airline tickets and dog treats.

We cannot emphasize enough that you should first (before buying a new carrier) contact your airline to find out what the size limitations are (not just for the carrier, but for your pet, too). Limitations for pets traveling in the cargo area likely differ from limitations/requirements for pets traveling with you in the cabin. In addition, most airlines require a recent health certificate from your vet.

The good news is that most airlines have complete information on their website, but you may want to call and confirm because the last thing anyone needs are problems boarding their flight. That could be a very expensive problem.

Weight matters.
All wheeled pet carriers have weight limits that vary by model, so be sure to check the weight restrictions before purchasing. For your dog's comfort, most of our wheeled pet carriers have padded or fleece lining. Other convenient features to look for are models that have storage compartments and a shoulder strap or handles for carrying when you come to an area where you are unable to pull the carrier on its wheels. One model even converts easily to a backpack, which allows you to keep your hands free to carry other things.

Double duty.
As a bonus, most wheeled pet carriers can double as a portable crate so your dog has a safe and comfortable place to sleep while away from home. One model, the Pet Roll Around, can be used as a car carrier and has seatbelt slots to properly secure the carrier for ultimate protection. This dog carrier has even been crash tested at 30 mph for pets up to 30 pounds!
