Pet Carriers

It is versatile with two different straps, three different entry ways, side and top ! There's plenty ventilation provided because of the unique side flaps which can be rolled up and held in place with straps. Most of all, I love the wheels, and with the long strap, it makes it so easy to wheel your pet along with you as you walk. It could almost serve as a pet stroller ! I use this carrier to take my cat to the vet ! It is so much easier to take my cat out from my car in the parking lot and into the Vet clinic with this carrier. I can open the door with one hand while wheeling my cat along with the other hand. My cat is a quite a large heavy cat. The top entry makes it easier to put her in it. This carrier made my life much easier. So many strangers have come up to me asking where I got this carrier from. I tell them to google "Wayfair" and "the Sherpa.""..."  Read more

One of my three cats HATES standard hard-sided carriers and completely freaks out whenever I have to get her into one. No matter what kind of training or acclimation tools I tried (leaving the plastic carrier around with the top off and comfortable bedding inside, spraying with "happy cat" pheromones, etc.), she wouldn't go near it. Although it took a while with the I-GO2, I have caught this cat napping inside and looking very comfortable. I'm looking forward to seeing how she feels when the screen is zipped up. About the product itself: It's very well made, has plenty of room for any of my cats, who weigh between 7 1/2 and 8 1/2 pounds and fit easily into a standard 11 1/2" H by 19 1/2" L plastic carrier. It's awesome that they can sit up in the I-GO2 and look around (something they can't do in hard-sided carriers) and that they can also lie down for a nap. The expandable sides leave extra room for longer cats to have a comfortable nap. The fact that you can buckle this carrier into a car's seat belt, carry it as a backpack, and roll it like carry-on luggage make this product very convenient for any usage. I'm quite sure this carrier wouldn't fit under the seat in an airplane cabin, but this isn't a problem for me because I have no intention of flying with my cats. But if you're planning to do so, you'll probably want to consider a soft-sided carrier that's shaped more like a traditional carrier."..."  Read more

My dog absolutely loves this carrier...so do I. She is using it also as a dog house, so I just keep it under a coffee table and is perfect. I bought this carrier just to be able to take her with me in the train, but now I can take her EVERYWHERE with me: the store, restaurant, doctor's office, and virtually any place where usually dogs are not allowed. That is the best part of this carrier. My dog is very good and stays calm and quiet inside. Also, I rode my motorcycle with her on my back. I put her in the carrier and used it as a backpack. It worked very well since the backpack was also resting on the seat. So, I am very happy with this product. However I didn't give it 5 stars because of two things that need to be improved: 1)Stability: when you are pulling it can loose stability, so be very careful and keep it straight (may be I am the dumb who is not a good "driver"). Also the handle doesn't feel very sturdy, and 2)Hard on Back: when I put it as backpack (empty, just to carry it), it hurted me on my back a little under my waist when I was walking with it. The lower part of the backpack and wheels are very hard. So, I haven't even tried walking with my dog inside. When it is empty I just carry it with the strap on my shoulder. Overall, I love this product and would recommend it to everyone who loves his/her dog and doesn't want to leave it home alone."..."  Read more

These carriers are great for short trips, including visits to the vet, etc. Because you can open them either at the top or at the end, you have a choice as to how you will get your pet inside. For example, the top opening is great for getting reluctant cats inside, but the opening on the end is good for dogs, who can just walk right in. The carrier is lightweight but sturdy, easy to carry, and easy to get in and out of a car. The only thing I have found is that even the largest carrier isn't quite tall enough. My cat is quite big and has long legs. He can stand when he's in the carrier, but only if he keeps his head level with his body. There is not enough headroom for him to hold his head up normally. Lying down he is fine....plenty of room then, but I probably would not use this carrier on a long trip for a pet at the larger end of the recommended limits."..."  Read more
