The SturdiBag Pet Carrier is a high quality pet travel carrier that is flexible in height. This allows it to fit in lots of spaces while allowing your pet the maximum amount of space. We at Pet Expertise have personally tested the SturdiBag large on numerous airplane trips. We also love using the SturdiBag for car rides and occasionally "sneaking" a dog into places in an emergency since the black SturdiBag looks like a duffel bag. The SturdiBag is chock full of handy and thoughtful features!

The SturdiBag Features:

  • The SturdiBag is Flexible in Height: The patented design of the SturdiBag pet carrier allows the top to flex without collapsing so that it can conform to the space under an airplane seat, while allowing your pet the most possible room to stretch out.

  • Lightweight Yet Durable: Uniquely constructed with top quality and durable materials, SturdiBag is the lightest weight professional grade pet carrier on the market.

  • Easy and quick assembly using included instructions.

  • Plenty of Ventilation: Retractable privacy flaps on mesh windows and door provide ample ventilation.

  • Keep in Touch!: There is a zippered entry point on the top of the carrier to allow you to reach in and comfort your pet or allow the pet to have an additional entry/exit point.

  • Easy to Maneuver: Adjustable 4-point padded shoulder strap & leather hand grip.

  • Comfy Pad Included: The removable, machine washable SturdiPet Comfort Pad is covered with soft fleece and is filled with a cushy, convoluted or "egg-crate" style foam pad that provides air circulation and superior weight distribution for support, comfort and pressure relief.

  • Great for Car Travel: By using either the seatbelt safety loops or the tie down loops on base corners of the Sturdi Bag Pet Carrier. When traveling by motor vehicle, always secure the carrier by placing it length wise on the seat and slipping your seatbelt/shoulder harness between the two seatbelt safety straps along the length of the carrier and then joining to the buckle. Tie down loops can be used in non-motorized vehicles, motor homes, cargo areas of cars or trucks and when seatbelt straps are absent.

  • Great for Airline Travel: The SturdiBag Carrier provides an excellent travel solution for airline use, but always check with your airline for allowable in-cabin carrier dimensions and weight specifications. (Our owner, Jess, has flown using the large SturdiBag many, many times using a multitude of airlines. Jess thinks the XL may be pushing it though!).

  • The SturdiBag Carrier is Washable: By hand or machine, in cold water.

  • Other Great Features and Details: Water resistant fabric; zipper locks to prevent escape; back pocket for storage. The SturdiBag is offered in multiple sizes, including a divided model for carrying two pets in the same carrier. All of the mesh windows can be completely covered with the roll down shades for total privacy when needed. The manufacturer offers a limited lifetime warranty.

  • Check it out with more images and video!: The Large is depicted in our main photograph. Click the video tab above for a video of the SturdiBag in use.

Please Note: Always supervise your pet when in the SturdiBag to make sure your dog does not panic and try to escape. Giving your dog a tasty chew to keep him busy is a good idea. The SturdiBag is not a replacement for a hard crate and is not guaranteed against chewing or clawing damage. If you prefer to carry your dog in the carrier with the top open, we recommend that you use a harness to restrain your dog. A collar is not recommended when using the carrier this way to protect your dog's throat if he were to try to jump out.

Return Info: A 15% restocking fee is charged for unused SturdiBags that are returned within 30 days of purchase, (no returns are accepted after 30 days). SturdiBags can only be returned if unused (no animal can have been in the carrier, once a pet has entered the carrier, it is considered soiled and is not returnable for sanitary reasons.) Therefore, we urge you to please look over your SturdiBag carefully before trying it out with your pet and please let us know if you have any questions as to sizing before purchasing! Contact us.

Shipping Info: Ships directly from our supplier to the continental US only. No PO Boxes.

My boyfriend and I flew with our 15 lb Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and this carrier was fantastic. She was able to turn around in it and seemed comfortable either stretching across its length or curling up like a ball on one side. The carrier fit perfectly under the tight and low airline seat in front of me because of the flexible top and I was able to pet our dog through the top zippered opening. People were surprised to discover that the carrier even contained a dog, as it looks like a duffel bag.

Our Divided SturdiBag arrived yesterday (fast - only three business days from ordering) and it only took a five minutes to put together. Our two chihuahuas had to immediately try it out. This is the best dog carrier I have ever owned. It is absolutely wonderful how it does not cave in our babies heads. The deluxe is the most ingenious carrier I have ever seen - and talk about convenient - both dogs have their own space - yet I only have to carry one bag - awesome ! Thanks so much for selling such a superior product !

First, let me gush a little bit about how much we love your product. We own the purple Sturdibag large; for our 10 lb Chihuahua/Jack Russell. Her name is Gladus and she loves her bag! plain rides, road trips, Pike Place market, inside shopping cartsThere is just a small list of how we have used this great bag! Gladus hates her crate, but she'll nap inside her Sturdibag. When we get ready to go, she runs inside her Sturdibag, as to say I'm coming! Don't forget me! We belt the bag in the back seat and she's a happy camper. Lately, we have been giving her the choice, her Sturdibag or her own seatbelt system. *Grin,* she goes in and out of her bag during the car ride. We drove across country from NC home to WA, and the Sturdibag was brilliant! I belted in either side of the bag, so Gladus could face forward in the back seat. Thank you so much! I cannot say enough.

Hi- Got the large Sturdi-Bag carrier for Effie, our 9lb Jack Russell/Chihuahua mix. I fly a lot, and Effie comes with me. I researched carriers and thankfully found yours. I cannot say enough wonderful things about it. For car travel it's great, and for plane travel it's even better. I fly Jet Blue most of the time, and their seats are particularly low, at about 8 1/2 - 9inches. The construction of the bag conforms beautifully under even the meanest seat without collapsing or crushing Effie herself. I have had more than one flight attendant say "that bag won't fit", and when I show them the unique way the Sturdi-Bag morphs to fit, the are amazed. On our most recent flight, the flight attendant said "What a great bag....I wish everyone had these, it would make it so much easier". So thanks so much for making Effie's well traveled life so comfortable, and mine so much better since I can take her with me..... Best, -Kristina B. As a fellow retailer, I must say I am extremely impressed by your high level of customer service and fabulous product! While searching for a travel bag for my Boston Terrier Zoe I was referred to your website by a fellow BT owner, Lisa. I was amazed at the wide selection and such versatile style of your products, not to mention the wide arrange of cute colors to choose from! I am planning a trip to Toronto to attend a huge K9 event with some fellow BTCanadaRescue friends and your product has made it possible for Zoe to travel with me because of it's lightweight style. The Pink is so adorable! Your staff is nothing but helpful and friendly. I will certainly be referring every travelling pet to your site! Thank you!

I received the package today, I love the construction of your Sturdibag carrier and my dog, Roxy, of course, fits in it very well. It is sturdy (as per its' name) and yet has plenty of ventilation and window views for her comfort. I love the zipper opening on the roof so that while we are waiting in the airport, she can sit up and poke her head out. I will be taking Roxy to the airport for the big test within the next few weeks. I am feeling more confident that she will pass.

I've used this 2 times now with puppy on cross country flights, it is great, fits under the seats of the smallest planes but does not collapse on your pet. I really like that I can unzip the top and pet my pup or give treats. I use it to take pups on outings too. It works well at vets or during socialization visits as the puppy can poke its head out and get lots of attention. When you put the stays in, bend them a bit and they will go into the sleeves easier but does take a little muscle. I've broken it down and packed in my carry on and then put it together at destination, a very useful bag.

My dog Crush (18 lb cattledog x Jack Russel) says this is the best travel bag ever. Also a good place to nap even when you're not traveling. We have the large size.

A very impressive product. I shopped the various pet supply stores and never came across anything even close to the nature, quality and qualities of this SturdiBag. There are two thin flexible rods that have to be inserted in the bag. Flexing them to get them properly in place is challenging at first but, once they’re in it all makes sense. I am confident it was the wisest purchase
