JESPET Soft-Sided Kennel Pet Carrier for Small Dogs, Cats, Puppy, Airline Approved Cat Carriers Dog Carrier Collapsible, Travel Handbag & Car Seat

My dog is small and as you can see he has plenty of room. I got the largest size for that reason. I did initially buy the smaller one but decided since he is a puppy there might still be room to grow. I love this bag. I travel a lot with my dogs (retired airline employee) and want a good lightweight bag. I have used Sherpa and Kugro backpacks (LOVE) but recently a gate agent wouldn't let me go on board with my lovable Kurgo backpack. She didn't think it had enough air holes (I beg to differ but what can you do?) So I was on the hunt for a bag that would work for all gate agents! Here are some of the features I love best....1. You can slip it over a bag! I had a Sherpa bag originally that was twice the price but junk when it came to slipping it over your roller bag. The strap was too thin and it kept spinning around. This one has a wide strap that actually has velcro below so you you don't have to use it as a roller bag strap but as an extra pocket. It still spins around but no where near like the Sherpa. I think it would be helpful it wasn't so wide. Just monitor while using it and you will be fine.2. Love the peep hole on the side. It's just enough that he can poke his head out. He loved it as well.3. Good height and soft enough that it still fits under an airplane seat.4. Just enough pockets to make it useful.5. Nice shoulder strap and carries well.6. Plenty of room for my 10lb dog that is 12in long.Over all, a good bag. I might buy more for my other dog that travels with us as well.

Good sized carrier, easy to clean, good quality, cats didn't make a fuss in it - they could see everything around them, which helped to calm them down.

I have small dogs and I do animal rescue work, finding them new homes. My work often involves airplane travel so I own several pet carriers.I’m writing a detailed review for this carrier because it’s hands down the most well thought out, helpful, versatile, pet friendly carrier out there and I’ll tell you why:• When you put an animal in a small container their body heat is trapped into a small space and they can quickly overheat. This carrier is vented on every side which made my dog so much more comfortable. The other bonus is that the vents allow the pet to see out of the carrier which in return makes the animal much calmer.•padded shoulder strap: This is great because again, it’s another option that allows the carrier to be carried over the shoulder. It also has a zipper on one side which allows the carrier to safely slide over the handle of the suitcase.• inside one of the pockets is a little attached key ring. This is a great place to attach a laminated card with your pets info.•Thin washable pad: I can’t stress enough how a thin pad was nicer than the thick pad. The biggest challenge (when flying) is how hot a pet can get in a carrier then stowed under the airplane seat a thick pad just adds to the heat and is really unneccesary. The thin pad allowed for more interior space yet is still soft and cozy.•reflective strips on the end of the carrier, again yet another cool detail they added for increased visibility and safety for your pet.•another side zippered storage pocket. I used this to store a portable water bowl and poo poo 💩 bags and wipes in case my doggie has an accident.•See my photos, you can see how this carrier fit my 6 month old chihuahua.

My senior15 yr old, 12 lb male Siamese cat Rocky and I went on a 3 1/2 hour plane trip. In the past Rocky had only been to Vet visits in a hard carrier. He's always hated going anywhere. I decided to order the Jespet soft-sided carrier, soft pad included for his comfort, anxiety and to fit under the seat in front of me. The carrier is very attractive and fit under the seat. Rocky being Siamese is very good at escaping by unzipping the carrier. That was the only down side, but can easily be remedied by using a large safety pin to the top of the zippers. Traveling with an untraveled cat is a challenge to begin with. Of course the cat will try to escape becoming a wildcat. The carrier is made well and didn't suffer any damage. He calmed down and once the plane got off the ground, Rocky slept the entire time. I definitely would recommend this high quality carrier to anyone. ***The only thing to remember is to safety pin the top of the zippers so they can't be slid down by your crafty kitty!

Did my Kitty enjoy riding in this carrier? Definitely not. But she was comfortable, it felt sturdy and secure and she had plenty of room. It is well made. It fit perfectly under the seat on our American Airlines flight from Colorado to Florida for a relocation move. It was easy to carry through the airport and easy to help her in and out. Plenty of mesh windows for air circulation. I doubt she will ever need to fly again but if she does, we would be happy to use this carrier again.

I paid more for this than I wanted to, letting myself believe that *this* time, extra money = better quality. Verdict: Not so much. The bottom is fine (I added a flat bed) and the straps seem to be good enough. However the zipper (because the structure is so weak and spastic) can be hard to zip up while your dog is maniacally trying to rip his head out of this thing. The pockets just fold over and aren't deep, which led to losing his collapsible water bowl before we ever even got through security. The worst part is that it's so flimsy, when using the shoulder strap alone, the sides smash in and basically leave your pet in a mesh net. I had to walk through the airport with my arm out using the short straps one at the elbow and the other at my wrist) so it wouldn't smoosh the pupper. The return window closed way before I ever used this, so I'll either sell it or get some tiny pvc and reinforce all the sides to give it some kind of stability. Neither of which should be necessary given the cost of thid thing. I don't recommend this at all, especially at a price point over $30.
