20 Smart and Stylish Pet Carriers

Brit + Co
Dec 07, 2013

Travel used to be such a stylish affair. It still can be, even with a furry friend in tow! You just need to hook up your favorite canine or kitten with a pet carrier that has a little extra something, ‘case you know, a well-traveled pet expects nothing less than the comforts of home while its owner racks up air miles. ;) These 20 pet carriers will give pampered pets a cozy spot to rest en route and won’t cramp your style.

1. Petagon by Teafco ($75): This posh pup carrier is a go-to for fashion-loving owners. That quilted honeycomb design is so on-trend.

2. Amelia Collection Carrier by Sherpa ($118): Faux leather trim and a lambskin interior make us want to curl up and be carried around inside this handsome pet carrier! This eye-catching design is perfect for a pampered pooch.

3. Argo Petascope Carrier ($135): Active pups and kittens will be ready to go for Olympic gold after a trip in this sporty carrier. While the design is super lightweight, this carrier doesn’t skimp on quality—the interior is fleece lined, and the carrier strap is well padded. Plus, it comes in a handful of bright colors like this chipper blue.

4. Lucy’s Luxuries Charlie Pet Carrier ($599): Even the most finicky of felines will approve of this luxe patent leather carrier. But watch out! Your cat may start demanding nothing less than tuna tartare for every meal after a trip in its plush interior. ;)

5. SoHo Pet Carrier ($190): It’s only appropriate that such a trendy bag would be called the SoHo Pet Carrier, which is a must have tote for artsy pet owners. This butter yellow bag is made out of animal-friendly leather, boasting a roomy inner compartment for Fido.

6. Cambridge Messenger ($190): Hipster pets will love cruising off the shoulder of their bike riding owners in this smart carrier. There’s even an additional pouch to fit a small laptop or tablet. Score!

7. Navy Stingray Leather Pet Carrier ($1,296): There’s no denying that this bag is worthy of being featured on the cover of Vogue, but you have to seriously love you pet to splurge on this statement carrier. Satin napping pillow not included! ;)

8. Reversible Pet Sling with Pocket ($40): Whether your pup is tuckered from scampering or just downright lazy, tout him around in this reversible sling. Each handmade carrier holds up to 20 pounds (sorry Bulldogs, you’re not getting a free ride!)

9. Wooflink Hipster 2 ($120): You know that bold colors are our jam, so we’re obsessing over these vivid colored carriers. It’s definitely a Brit-approved way to showcase your pup while you stroll.

10. Wicker Bike Dog Basket ($79): Here’s another great way to take your pooch for a stylish spin. With this canopied rattan basket lined in cozy sheepskin, you can rest assured your pet will enjoy the plush ride (in rain or shine!), especially since it comes with an adjustable safety leash.

11. Lookout Sherpa Lined Dog Car Seat ($90+): Yes, they make cozy carseats for dogs. That means…road trip! Turn on the radio and channel your inner Griswold. It’s time to buckle up and head to Wally World!

12. Bark-n-Bag Barkwell Classic Pet Carrier ($99): We have to admit: we’re totally mad for plaid! Relive your grunge days on your way to doggy daycare with this tartan pouch.

13. Snoozer Euro Pet Backpack ($60): We’ve said it before, backpacks aren’t just for high school students, and now, they’re not just for humans either! Instead of weighing yourself down with books and broken pencils, why not tote your four-legged companion around the halls…er, we mean the streets? ;)

14. Sleepypod Bed, Car Seat  and Carrier ($180): Why choose between a pet bed, car seat, or carrier when you can have it all in one awesome pod? The adjustable dome-shaped top means this tote is ultra versatile, making it perfect for both curious pups or cats that just want some privacy.

15. Zack and Zoey Vineyard Quilted Dog Carrier ($70): This might be the chicest pet carrier we’ve ever seen! You can bet your pet will appear just as timeless as they sit inside the berber covered bottom of this quilted, faux leather bag.

16. Zack and Zoey Sherpa Dog Carrier ($60): Doesn’t this pet carrier look something straight outta the UGG store? This furry bag is perfect for lugging your pooch around in cold weather.

17. Outward Hound Sling Pet Carrier ($50): This shiny pet sling is made of durable nylon that is as soft as it is sturdy. Plus, it has a safety clip that attaches to your pet’s collar so they don’t jump out while you’re strolling around the neighborhood. Courier-style carrying FTW!

18. M. Issac Mizrahi Gingham Dog Carrier ($220): The poshest of pooches will be lining up to jump in this carrier, made by the notorious fashion designer Isaac Mizrahi. With this plaid number over your shoulder, you can definitely treat the sidewalk like a catwalk and strut your stuff. ;)

19. Hemp Messenger Dog Carrier by Doggles ($85): Eco-friendly and made from hemp, this messenger-style pet carrier is perfect for the pet with a green paw! You can choose between two sizes—one holds tiny pets up to 10 pounds while the other can accommodate heftier ones up to 25 pounds—each comes complete with a soft pillow, a cuddly blanket, and portable water bowl.

20. Ware Twist-N-Go Carrier ($18): Even though we love the stylish stripes, the main selling point on this patterned carrier has to be the extra large mesh windows. Its light, yet scratch-proof material is perfect for quick trips to the vet and when you’re back home, it folds away for easy storage.

What kind of pet carrier do you use to tote your pooch? Does style win out or do you go for ones with ones that focus on pampering your pet? If we missed any awesome pet carriers, tell us about ’em in the comments below!

I Tried A Dog DNA Test On My New Puppy, And The Results Were So Surprising!

I adopted my schnauzer-poodle mix two years ago, named her Lucy, and went through the painstaking process of house-training a puppy...my shag rugs are still recovering. Just as I was celebrating the end of the puppy phase and Lucy was becoming a dog we absolutely adore, my boyfriend Dan brought home a 4-month-old pup. While skeptical at first — puppy PTSD is real — I was smitten as soon as I met the little guy. He was super sweet and gentle with the most earnest of puppy eyes.

We named him Diego after Dan’s hometown San Diego. He also has the personality of a chill surfer dog compared to my slightly neurotic Lucy (above left, wishing she had her giant dog bed all to herself). His genetic origins, however, were somewhat vague. The adoption shelter suspected he was a German shepherd mix with maybe a smidge Boxer. We were certain of the shepherd part as he was always trying to herd Lucy into a corner — an action often met with fierce objection, but they've since grown to tolerate (and even sort of like) each other. Side note: Diego broke his leg falling down the stairs soon after we brought him home. Highly recommend pet insurance right after adoption!

Over the weeks and months, as he started to grow into his actual size (50 lbs-ish), we guessed maybe he had some pitbull in his heritage. When strangers inevitably asked what he was, Dan would jokingly reply, “American Fence Jumper.”

Meanwhile, my daughter was in dog heaven and kept declaring that when she gets old enough to have her own dog she is getting a Siberian Husky (she’s in the wolf phase of kid animal obsessions).

We used the at-home dog DNA kit, Know Your Pet DNA by Ancestry, to crack Diego's DNA code. The test was pretty simple – easier than a Covid test – and required that we just swab his inner cheek for a saliva sample and mail it off.

We anxiously awaited the results and joked about having a breed reveal party (any excuse to gather, right?). We also wanted to know what we were in for in terms of health and behavior issues. Four weeks later, we received the email that would unlock the mystery.

The test revealed his behavioral traits like willingness to share (yes), separation anxiety (nope), possessiveness (not at all), noise sensitivities (calm), and more, helping us understand him a little better or just confirming what we already knew about him. We even met some of his genetic relatives!

Then of course was the biggest surprise: His breed. Any guesses?

Turns out, Diego is 49 percent Siberian Husky! My daughter was thrilled. His breed mix also included American Pitbull Terrier (26%), American Staffordshire Terrier (19%), and Australian Cattle Dog (6%). He's super social and loves everyone and every dog and is pretty much house-trained...except for the occasional shoe and rug casualty. We're working on it. 😉

What Human Foods Can Dogs Eat?

You love your dog. You love them even when they’re stinky, sleepy little freeloaders that ask relentlessly for pets. And while it's super important to remember that dogs have different nutritional needs than humans, sometimes you just can’t resist those puppy eyes – and you have to slip them a tidbit of human food. We advise against sharing without doing your research, though. Here are some human foods that dogs can safely consume in moderation.

1. Lean Meats

Cooked chicken, turkey, and lean cuts of beef or pork can be given to dogs, but they should be boneless, skinless, and free from seasonings, butters, oils, or spices.

2. Fruits

Photo by Nataliya Vaitkevich / PEXELS

Many fruits are safe for dogs, such as apples (without seeds or core), bananas, blueberries, strawberries, and watermelon (without seeds or rind). Remember to remove any seeds or pits of fruits, as they can be harmful to your pup.

  • Apples
  • Bananas
  • Blueberries
  • Cantaloupes
  • Cranberries
  • Mangoes
  • Oranges
  • Peaches
  • Pears
  • Pineapple
  • Strawberries
  • Raspberries
  • Watermelon
🚨 IMPORTANT: Grapes are highly toxic for dogs. It's imperative to avoid ingestion. 🚨

3. Vegetables

Photo by Anna Shvets / PEXELS

Dogs can enjoy a variety of vegetables like carrots, green beans, peas, and sweet potatoes. Make sure to cook or steam them before feeding to aid in digestion.

  • Broccoli
  • Brussels sprouts
  • Carrots
  • Celery
  • Green beans
  • Peas
  • Spinach
  • Sweet potatoes

4. Rice and Pasta

Photo by Samson Katt / PEXELS

Plain, cooked rice or pasta can be given to dogs, but only occasionally. Plain white or brown rice is suitable for dogs, but you should avoid flavored rice mixes or dishes with added spices that can cause harm. It's important to note that rice and pasta is not really nutritionally *necessary* for dogs, as pups primarily require a balanced diet of protein, fats, and carbohydrates that they can get from their regular dog food.

5. Plain Yogurt

Photo by Mikkel Bendix / PEXELS

Small amounts of plain, unsweetened yogurt without any added flavors, sugars, or artificial sweeteners can provide probiotics and be beneficial for dogs' digestive systems, supporting digestion, aiding in nutrient absorption, and contributing to a healthy immune system. Yogurt also comes in handy for your fur baby when they’re experiencing digestive issues such as diarrhea or an upset stomach. Furthermore, yogurt is a great source of calcium and protein. Calcium is essential for maintaining strong bones and teeth in dogs, while protein is necessary for muscle growth and repair.

6. Eggs

Photo by Olga Burmistrova / PEXELS

Cooked eggs are considered a good source of protein for dogs, helping build and repair tissues, supporting muscle growth, and contributing to a healthy immune system. Cooked eggs also have a good amount of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, vitamin A, vitamin D, vitamin B12, riboflavin, and selenium, which all play important roles in supporting overall health and growth of your doggo. When giving your dog eggs, ensure they are fully cooked and avoid using any oils, seasonings, or additives.

If you have any concerns or questions about incorporating these human foods into your dog's diet, do consult with your veterinarian for personalized advice based on your dog's specific needs. Remember to always introduce new foods gradually and in small portions to monitor your dog's reaction.

Every Holiday Movie You Can Stream On Netflix Starting Today

The holidays are here! Well, kind of. Thanksgiving isn’t until November 28 but as far as I’m concerned, November 1 is the day the festivities can begin.

And a huge part of getting into the spirit is stacking up the perfect holiday movie marathon. Thankfully Netflix already has a bunch of holiday titles coming out over the next few weeks.

Upgrade Your Thanksgiving With A Crescent-Roll Cornucopia

This edible crescent-roll cornucopia is our way of making a normal cheese boardmore festive — and definitely more fun — during the holiday season. Our go-to this time of year is a massive cheese plate that can stand alone and be the main attraction, or the starter for a larger meal. Press on for the surprisingly easy steps to braid a breaded cornucopia.

Chris Andre

Materials + Tools:

  • 1 roll of tin foil
  • 2 packages of crescent rolls
  • 1 egg (for egg wash before cornucopia goes into the oven), optional

Chris Andre

Instructions:

Start by sculpting tin foil into the shape of a cornucopia (it looks like a cone with an upturned tail). Pro tip: Lightly pack tin foil so it's easier to remove later from your baked cornucopia. Crescent rolls should be buttery enough that this shouldn't be difficult.

Chris Andre

Your tin foil mold should look a little something like this.

Chris Andre

Pop open the crescent rolls and cut the triangles into strips. Pinch together the ends of strips to make strips longer.

Chris Andre

Braid crescent roll strips. You can make these as fancy as you want. Not a braiding pro? Skip this step and leave those strips alone.

Chris Andre

Wrap tin foil cornucopia with braids/strips. Make sure you cover all the tin foil. Leave a little wiggle room at the opening of the cornucopia, so that when you’re done baking you can pull some of that tin foil out.

Chris Andre

Use any extra dough to cover the bottom of your cornucopia. Pinch the sides and anchor those braids/strips in.

Chris Andre

Brush on egg wash before placing your cornucopia in the oven. Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 20 minutes. Take out of oven and cover spots of cornucopia that are already golden brown with extra tin foil. Bake for another 20 minutes at 250 degrees Fahrenheit.

Chris Andre

Let it cool down until it’s easy to handle. Remove tin foil.

Chris Andre

Place cornucopia in corner of your cheese plate. Arrange cheese on your serving tray.

Chris Andre

Add crackers — we like to have two or three options.

Chris Andre

Don’t forget to fill up your cornucopia. It's called "the horn of plenty" for a reason. Fill with fresh fruit like grapes, apples, and pears.

Chris Andre

Add nuts like walnuts and pistachios to fill in any empty spaces. Garnish with fresh herbs like rosemary and sage to finish it off.

Chris Andre

Voilà! Invite over your friends, open a bottle of wine, and dig in!

Chris Andre

A cornucopia cheese board will become your new favorite holiday tradition.

Show us your crescent-roll cornucopias on Instagram and check out our baking classes (and our Easy Thanksgiving Desserts piece) for more holiday food inspo!
