A successful trip with your pet requires preparation. Here's the complete checklist to ensure you don't forget anything and can travel with peace of mind.
1. The right carrier bag
Choose a carrier bag suitable for your pet's size and weight, well-ventilated and secure. Get them used to it several days before departure.
2. Documents
- Up-to-date health record and vaccinations
- Identification (microchip / tattoo)
- For international travel: pet passport if required
3. Comfort during the journey
- A blanket with its scent
- Water and a small collapsible bowl
- Its usual treats
- A comforting toy
4. Good practices
- Potty break just before departure
- Light meal to avoid motion sickness
- Regular breaks on long journeys
- Never leave the pet alone in a car, especially in hot weather
5. Depending on the mode of transport
Rules vary for plane, train, or car: check conditions in advance. Find our dedicated guides on the blog.
