How to Find the Best Fit: Select the carrier size based on your pet’s measurements first and then by your pet’s weight, making sure not to exceed the maximum weight limits. Also allow enough space for your pet to change positions while inside the carrier. Note: the carrier is designed for pets lying down, so your pet may not be able to stand.
How to Measure Your Pet: For pet’s length, start at the nape of the neck (where the collar falls) and measure to the base of the tail. For height, measure from the floor to the top of the shoulder.
Please weigh and measure your pet carefully. The pet's length should be measured from the nape of the neck to the base of the tail. The pet's height should be measured when it is standing, from the floor to the shoulder. Please note, pets should have enough room to lie down comfortably but also stand up and turn around should they wish to change positions.
All Sherpa carriers are soft-sided and made with a patented spring wire frame in the rear of the bag. The spring wire frame allows the back end to be pushed down several inches to slide beneath the airline seat without restricting the pet's head room.
Airline Approved means that a carrier:
Guaranteed On Board is the only program that guarantees a Sherpa carrier meets an airline's specific rules and regulations and will be allowed on board. All small and medium Sherpa carriers are included in the GOB program. However, the medium size carrier is not Guaranteed On Board on ALL of the airlines included in the program.
Just because a particular airline is not included in the Guaranteed On Board program it does not mean your carrier will not be allowed on board, just that you will need to confirm directly with the airline. Please note, our carriers are soft-sided and made with a patented spring wire frame that allows the back end to be pushed down several inches to slide beneath the airline seat without restricting the pet's head room.
Please check with airline directly. Some airlines allow carriers that are larger than the dimensions they specify if the carrier is soft-sided and pushes down. All Sherpa carriers are made with a patented spring wire frame in the rear of the bag which allows the end to be pushed down several inches to conform to the under seat dimensions without restricting the pet's head room or compromising the structural integrity of the bag.
No. If the style / size carrier you have is not included in a particular airline's GOB page it is not Guaranteed On Board that particular airline because its dimensions exceed what the airline specifies as being allowed on board.

About Sherpa Pet Carriers
Original Deluxe Pet Carrier
The Original Deluxe Pet Carrier is an airline-approved carrier that lets your pet travel comfortably whether you are on the go, in your car, or taking a walk. It is easy to use and durable enough to keep your pet contained and protected.
Guaranteed on Board
Sherpa worked with major airlines to make a carrier that is GuaranteedOnBoard. Sherpa’s G.O.B. program provides you with all the information you will need for future travels with your pet and added assurance that your carrier will be allowed to fly.
Fits Under Most Airline Seats
The spring-wire frame allows the rear side of the carrier to be pushed down several inches so that it can fit under most airline seats in compliance with airline requirements and FAA regulations. This makes the carrier in-cabin-friendly and airline-approved for most airlines.

This carrier was perfect for air travel. My dog is a 9 pound chihuahua. There wasn’t much room for her to stand up when it was completely zipped. The carrier measures about 9 inches tall and then another inch on the bottom for the wheels. It was very convenient to have the wheels and it made transporting her through the airport easy. No problems fitting the carrier under the airplane seat (Allegiant). If you have a small, short dog this carrier is perfect. If you have a little taller dog, you may want to opt for a carrier without the wheels and take that extra room for carrier space. I kept it unzipped when we were walking in the airport. I zipped it fully when we were onboard the aircraft. My Peanut was quite the star in the airport terminals!
This is our second Sherpa Ultimate on Wheels cat carrier, although we bought our first one on a different river-size company. We had our first one for several years before we decided to replace it. We love this carrier for taking our cats to the vet. We take them at the same time. Our girl is only 7 pounds, but her brother is 15 pounds, so it’s easier having wheels when taking them in. Everyone comments on how much they love it, especially the vets and techs, so when they have to take the two to the back, they don’t have to carry them. It’s expensive but worth what it saves for your back.
I have used my Sherpa twice before this incident today on the way to the airport. My dog was able to pop his head up, which intern broke the zippers on each side of the top flat and I was unable to close the top. I was on my way to the airport and ended up canceling my flight because I couldn’t get a pet carrier formy dog in time.
The bag held my 12 lb dog easily, The bag rolled nicely. straps were good. had no problems great bag
Plenty of room for our 16 lb Schnoodle, laying down. Luckily, flight crew allowed his head to pop up. Would have liked an expandable handle.
My old cat carrier was on wheels, very heavy and front entry. I needed something lighter on wheels with top entry as my cat has a back problem. This carrier works great! It is lighter than my old one, rolls easier and the top entry was MUCH better for my cat. Thank you.
This rolling carrier worked really well. It was roomy but small enough to fit under the seat in front but I had to maneuver it in and out. 12# cat able to turn around. Very happy with the purchase. Flag needs to be changed to bright orange or yellow. My 10 year old granddaughter made me a brighter replacement.
My cats have been napping in it. On the one trip to the vet I made so far it worked fine
This bag helped me big time when I took my cat with me on Southwest Airlines. It can fit a small/medium size cat easily and has enough room for the cat to stretch legs once seated. The bag is airline compatible. The only downside is some cats may not be able to stand once inside the bag.
My 10yr old yorkie loves this carrier. She is blind and you can tell she feels comfortable and safe in this carrier. Fits perfect under front airline seats. Wheels are very well made, easy to move around in the busy Airport. Recently traveled with 2yr old grandson and he had no problem pulling this carrier through the airport. People were amazed how easy it was for him to take his favorite pet alone for the ride.
