Traveling with your beloved pet can be an exciting adventure, but ensuring their comfort and safety is paramount. The Sherpa Travel Pet Carrier is designed to provide a stress-free travel experience for both you and your furry companion, whether you’re heading to the vet, embarking on a road trip, or flying across the country. Renowned for its quality and thoughtful design, the Sherpa Original Deluxe Carrier stands out as a top choice for pet owners seeking a reliable and comfortable travel solution.
Key Features That Make Sherpa Travel Pet Carriers Stand Out
Sherpa Travel Pet Carriers are packed with features designed with your pet’s well-being and your convenience in mind. Let’s explore what makes them a preferred choice for pet travel.
Airline Approved and Guaranteed On-Board
For air travel, the Sherpa Original Deluxe Carrier offers peace of mind. It’s approved for use on most major airlines, and the small and medium sizes are even part of Sherpa’s Guaranteed On-Board program on specific airlines (always check with your airline before flying). The patented spring wire frame is a game-changer, allowing the carrier’s rear end to compress by several inches. This ingenious design ensures it fits comfortably under most airline seats, making it an ideal under seat pet carrier.
Comfort and Safety are Top Priorities
Your pet’s comfort is essential during travel. Sherpa carriers feature mesh panels strategically placed to provide excellent ventilation and airflow, keeping your pet cool and comfortable throughout the journey. Locking zippers are incorporated to prevent accidental escapes, ensuring your pet remains safely inside the carrier. Inside, a soft, cozy, and removable faux lambskin liner creates a comfortable resting space. This liner is also machine-washable, making cleanup a breeze. For added safety, each carrier includes a seat belt security strap that doubles as a luggage strap, securing the carrier during car rides or airport transits.
Designed for Convenience
Sherpa Travel Pet Carriers are not just about pet comfort; they are also designed for pet parent convenience. Top and side entry options simplify loading and unloading your pet, reducing stress for both of you. A large zippered side pocket offers ample space to store essential pet travel documents, treats, or any other necessities your pet might need on the go. Carrying the carrier is also comfortable, thanks to the adjustable, no-slip shoulder strap with padded support.
Choosing the Perfect Size Sherpa Carrier for Your Pet
Selecting the right size carrier is crucial for your pet’s comfort and safety. Sherpa carriers come in small, medium, and large sizes to accommodate various breeds and sizes.
Size Guide for Sherpa Original Deluxe Carriers
- Small Carrier: Ideal for pets up to 13 inches in length and 7.5 inches in height, weighing up to 8 pounds.
- Medium Carrier: Suitable for pets up to 16 inches in length and 10 inches in height, weighing up to 16 pounds.
- Large Carrier: Designed for pets up to 18 inches in length and 11 inches in height, weighing up to 22 pounds.
It’s important to note that these carriers are designed for pets to lie down comfortably, not necessarily to stand.
How to Measure Your Pet for a Sherpa Carrier
To ensure the perfect fit, accurately measure your pet:
- Length: Measure from the front of their chest to the end of their rear.
- Height: Measure from the floor to the top of their back when standing.
Always choose the carrier size based on your pet’s measurements first, and then consider their weight, ensuring you do not exceed the maximum weight limit for the chosen size.
