This is a sturdy carrier that is comfortable to wear. And Brigit the Cat seems to find it comfortable when we go for walks! When she gets tired of checking out the scenery, there’s room to get cosy and close her eyes for a short catnap.

Inexpensive option for when you don’t need to use it all the time.

I bought this to carry my pug on a 5K walk. It functioned great and my dog seemed comfortable. The only issue and why I took a star is that for a few days after

I bought this to carry my pug on a 5K walk. It functioned great and my dog seemed comfortable. The only issue and why I took a star is that for a few days after the hike, my lower back was killing me from where the board on the bottom was resting against my back. Next time we need to use it, I may try it without the board.

I have a stray rescue right now and I have to keep her separated from my other cats for the time being. This backpack helps ease her loneliness because I can take her around the house with me! It also makes vet appointments far easier and more comfortable for both of us!

Perfect for my 18 pound Big Boy!

This is a sturdy, quality made carrier. It takes a little practice getting kitty into the carrier. Works best if you put the carrier on first then pick up the cat

This is a sturdy, quality made carrier. It takes a little practice getting kitty into the carrier. Works best if you put the carrier on first then pick up the cat and slide them in. I wore this as a front carrier so I could keep an eye on my boy. Had to keep the neck tight to otherwise he squeezed out once. Overall happy with purchase and kitty was happy to be outside!

This carrier holds your pet out away from your body, our girl did not like the feeling of being so far out in front of me. She also hated the “hole” in the top and kept trying to place her paws out of the top. We tried this pack multiple times and it just did not work.

Well, again, my little 10 pounder has her own opinions, so I made sure I could return it if she wasn't enchanted with it. She's enchanted. I took it out of the box, pulled it up and down till it looked like the picture, tried it on for size, (perfect) then adjusted the straps for me, unzipped the top and placed the oblong bottom piece inside. It's covered with a soft sort of velour material, and fits snugly at the bottom of the bag and gives it shape so it's easier for the dog to settle in. I lifted her up and placed her in it - she trusts me so, no struggling, but it was cute to watch the look on her face. It was like she was saying "oh! oh, wait, this actually feels good! Well, I'll just sit right down here and see what happens next" - So I lifted her up and put the pack on, and we walked around the house a little bit. She took to it immediately. It has been really humid the past few weeks, and we both have sinus problems with humidity, so I can hardly wait to go out walking and see how far we get. I know I'm going to have to work into any kind of distance, but for right now, short mall walks, or just a bit of strolling around the neighborhood will be fun. Great price, too!

I found this carrier very sturdy, but it is not made for a man or a lady over 130 pounds. The waist strap is short. It fits me find in a tee shirt but would not fit wearing a jacket. Also the shoulder straps have a strap to keep them close so they do not slip off your shoulder and it is too short. When buckled together it makes the shoulder straps no wider than the bottom of the pack. This is made for a small person only.

China is a 11 year old, 10 pound chihuahua. She does great walking for about 10 minutes and then I would have to carry her. The Petami Carrier has been a life saver for the long walks. Just put her in it and she enjoys a longer walk with the family, two other dogs, and my arm doesn't get tired holding her. Extremely easy to use on my own.
