Don’t make holiday travel with your pet stressful. PetSmart has everything you need for a road trip with your pet or if you need a trusted sitter while you’re away.

The holidays are all about spending time with your loved ones. And because your pets are a part of your family, you might not be thrilled with the idea of leaving them behind when you need to travel. But don’t worry; PetSmart has all of your holiday pet travel needs taken care of. The five travel products below will help make any road trip or flight a lot smoother for you and your furry travel buddy.

Accidents happen, and you can’t predict when your pet will get hurt or sick. Having a first aid kit for your furkid is a great way to give yourself additional peace of mind during hectic holiday travel. And just like any first aid kit designed for people, the Kurgo Pet First Aid Kit has everything that you’d need in a pinch.

This pet first aid kit will fit easily into your glove compartment or luggage, and it includes tools like sting relief pads, gauze pads, cotton swabs, and tweezers, as well as antiseptic towelettes, scissors, a first aid guide with instructions, and more.

Perfect for adventurous dogs while they’re on the go, the Kurgo Collaps-A-Bowl will help ensure your canine companion remains hydrated and ready for action as you make your way to your holiday destination.

The great thing about this bowl is the fact that it boasts an accordion-like design, so it will collapse to the point that it will be just one inch thick – perfect for tucking into a travel bag. Whether you store it in your car or in your carry-on bag, this bowl won’t get in the way.

Sherpa Original Deluxe Pet Carrier

Looking for a high quality soft-sided pet carrier? Then check out the stylish Sherpa Original Deluxe Pet Carrier. This carrier features both top and side entries to make it easier for your pet to enter and exit, along with three mesh ventilation panels and a comfy faux lambskin liner inside. The removable shoulder strap makes it easier to carry your pet across airports or to your car, and the locking zippers provide extra security, while the rear pocket lets you conveniently store must-haves within reach. Plus, if you’re headed out for a long car ride, the seat belt security strap will help keep your pet safe.

Petmate 2-Door Top Load Pet Kennel

If you and your pet prefer a hard-sided carrier, the Petmate 2-Door Top Load Pet Kennel is a great choice. Made of durable plastic, this carrier features a top entry and a side entry, and the doors close securely to keep your furbaby safe. There are also plenty of ventilation holes so you can see your pet and your companion can look out to see what’s going on. The handle makes it easy to carry this kennel, but once you arrive at your destination, it could also serve as a quiet space where your pet can relax and nap on a soft blanket until he gets used to his new surroundings.

Snoozer 4-in-1 Pet Roll Around

One of the cutest and most fun pet carriers is the Snoozer 4-in-1 Pet Roll Around. Designed for both dogs and cats, this carrier with wheels is approved for airline travel to help ensure your pet will remain secure and comfortable. Beyond that, however, you could also convert it into a car seat for your holiday road trip, or you could use it as a pet bed or a backpack.

And if you’re ordering all your travel items online, you get fast, free shipping on orders over $49 at PetSmart.com!

Traveling Without Your Pet?

Sometimes, much as you’d like to take your pet with you on your travels, it isn’t feasible to do so. If that’s the case this holiday season, rest assured that PetSmart’s PetsHotel has your back with around-the-clock care in an environment that will feel like an all-inclusive vacation for your pet.

PetHotel isn’t a kennel—it’s a comfortable pet hotel boarding facility that’s staffed with safety-certified associates, so you can have peace of mind that your furry family members will be in the best of hands while you’re away from home. Your pet could enjoy playtime, training sessions, spa services, and more, thanks to the various perks, amenities, and services that are offered. On top of that, this welcoming hotel for pets even features different accommodations, just like a human hotel. Choose from a standard guest room or a private suite for your dog, or book a kitty cottage for your feline.

Whether you decide to travel with your pet or let him enjoy his or her own little vacation, the PetSmart PetsHotel has you covered with everything that you need to ensure your pet’s safety and happiness. So here’s to a stress-free holiday season for both you and your best friend!
