Comfort, Safety, and Ease: Why Owners Love It
- Keeps anxious pups calm with a cozy, enclosed feel.
- Great for quick trips where leashing isn’t ideal (crowded sidewalks, stores that allow dogs, transit where permitted).
- Safety-first details reduce risk: clip to harness, snap the top, and keep your dog secure in busy spaces.
- Washable components help control odor, lint, and seasonal mud.
- Versatile year-round—layer with a lightweight blanket in winter or use as-is in warmer months.
How to Use the Tote’n’Go Safely
- Clip the built-in safety strap to your dog’s harness (preferred) or collar before lifting.
- Keep the top snap closed in crowded areas or during transit for extra security.
- Support your dog’s body with one hand when lifting the bag and avoid sudden movements.
- Periodically check straps, stitching, and the clip for wear and tear.
- Remove the sherpa lining to machine wash; air dry fully before reassembly.
For longer car or air travel, always follow official transport guidelines and your vet’s advice. Helpful resources include the AVMA’s travel tips and the ASPCA’s safety guidance.
Is a Tote Carrier Right for You? Alternatives Compared
- Dog carrier backpacks: ideal for longer walks, hikes, or when you need hands-free mobility. Look for structured back support, ventilation, and harness clips.
- Crossbody slings: compact and cuddly for very small dogs; ensure the sling has a tether and adequate support.
- Hard or soft-sided crates: best for car and airplane guidelines; they offer more structure and can meet transport rules more easily.
- Tote carriers (like Tote’n’Go): perfect for short-to-medium trips, errands, and urban outings when you want fast access and a stylish form factor.

FAQ
Which is the best dog carrier backpack?
The best backpack balances support, ventilation, a secure tether, and comfort for both you and your dog. Look for structured frames, padded straps, and multiple vents. If you prefer quick access and a sleek look for city use, a tote like the Tote’n’Go is a great alternative.
Are there safety concerns with dog purses?
Yes—always use a tether clipped to a harness, keep the top secured in crowds, and support your dog while lifting. Regularly inspect straps and stitching. For vehicles or longer trips, consider a travel crate that meets transport guidelines.
What are some alternatives to dog purses?
Most dogs do best with a bed that matches their size and sleep style, offers easy-to-clean materials, and provides enough support for their joints—especially as they get older.
