Promising review: "Because I travel a lot and I have fur babies, I needed something I could throw in the suitcase. This roller is great. No more having to roll and take a sticky sheet off. This rolls wonderfully, and the hair removal is amazing. The best part is I just wash it off. It picks up better than the paper in my opinion." —M.F.

Get it from Amazon for $6.99+ (available in four colors and in two- and four-packs)

Promising review: "My cat loves this toy so much!! He will play for hours! Plus, I haven't had to charge it for three days now. It's quieter than most automatic toys. We have it in the hall because it works better on non-carpeted floors, though it does still work on carpet, too. It is super easy to assemble and charges quickly. Great quality at a great price! Even comes with an extra attachment for the inevitable distruction of the feathers, haha." —Lynngirl31

Get it from Amazon for $24.98 (available in two styles).

Promising review: "Love it! Keeps our dog entertained for at least 15 minutes. She loves playing with it and it slows down her eating." —Irene Dodds

Get it from Amazon for $6.35+ (available in ten styles)

Promising review: "These are the best poop bags I’ve used. They’re strong, never leak, smell lightly of lavender, and tear off the roll easily. Great size, great value, and they make walks way less of a hassle." —Bradley Jones

Get it from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in four scents and in quantities of 108, 120, 270, 280, and 600 bags)

Promising review: "The product is well made. It is soft and tailored quite nicely. I use it for my needy senior cat. She can now join me while I get some things done around the house. It has a big open pocket with buttons on each side to secure the animal. It also came with a little leash attachment so the dog can be clipped in, and a decent pocket on the side for extra things like poop baggies if you use it for a small dog. Very happy with this purchase." —brandon brandon

Get it from Amazon for $17.09+ (available in two sizes,  three styles, and seven colors).

It can also help calm your pup during fireworks, separation, travel, vet visits, grooming, and more.

Promising review: "We have two rescue dogs — one is afraid of loud noises and storms and is also very clingy. He constantly wants to be touched, and we can’t always be there to cuddle him, but this has helped him with all of it. We’re still getting him used to it, but I’ve also purchased one for my parents' dog who is terrified of thunder, and it has worked great for years!!" —Gina Andries

Get it from Amazon for $39.49+ (available in sizes XXS–XXL)

Promising review: "I LOVE this pet backpack!! I have a maltipoo (who is my lovely little fur baby), and she likes to go with me everywhere. Now I can take her hiking on trails with me! 😊 The backpack is so roomy but not bulky, a win! There are two small zipped side pockets, perfect for two water bottles. There is a harness buckle, so your little one doesn’t fall out. I walked with the flap open so she could stand, sit, and be nosey. She was perfectly safe the entire 3-mile hike." —The busiest woman you know

Get it from Amazon for $26.99+ (available nine colors).

I have this bag and it's a great size for my *extremely* clingy dogs. They're ~18 pounds each and fit comfortably inside (not at the same time). They love the thick, soft bed at the bottom and I love that the straps are long enough to carry this over my shoulder.

Promising review: "My pom is a petite little dog with a big personality. She thrives on adventures, but we’ve found that she tires out quickly when on a leash. That’s why her carrier is perfect. It gives her a cozy spot to retreat from the extra attention she often attracts while out and about. Yet, she can still pop her head out to say hi whenever she feels comfortable!" —Happy Mom

Get it from Cleverpup for $120+ (available in two sizes and four colors; personalization is available for $25).

Promising review: "I have a new puppy who is scared to death of the car and will only lie on my lap when driving. With the strap that holds the dog secure in the bed, it is perfect and has worked very well. Along with it being a comfortable and cozy dog bed for them, it has provided some comfort for them as well. Highly recommend for any dogs who are nervous and clingy in the car." —Sam

Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in two sizes and 10 colors).

Promising review: "My cats love this thing. The absolute best part about it is the fact that you charge it instead of wasting batteries on it. has a motion sensor that the kitties love toying with. It also comes with catnip inside, which makes them really like licking it. You can remove the robotics inside for easy washing of the fabric shell. Great purchase for my cat children. My dog also likes to try and play with it, though you should definitely remove the robotics inside if you let your dogs play with it." —Ruthard Heath O'Dunne

Get it from Amazon for $9.98 (available in two styles)

Promising review: "My little dude has paws like Chewbacca, even thick fur in the middle of his pads, so he picks up everything. This product is brilliant. He doesn't mind his little paw getting dunked, and the soft rubber bristles on the inside do a great job of dealing with extra dirt. I also like how it's not a noticeable object to leave by the door. Highly recommended." —Alison Monfort

Promising review: "These blankets are great! I have four and just ordered a fifth. Unfortunately, my very old cat now pees in his sleep... and he sleeps with me! These blankets have saved my bed and my bedding! And my couch, and his favorite chair. They are lightweight yet warm and cuddly for him, easy to wash and dry, and look nice. They are waterproof and exactly as described. Game changer for my sanity with an old cat whom I adore!" —Happy Nurse

Get it from Amazon for $10.38+ (available in nine sizes and 14 colors). 

Promising review: "I have a VERY anxious mastiff mix rescue pup. We don’t know much about his background, but he was definitely abused and suffers from bad anxiety and separation anxiety. We’ve tried EVERYTHING to help with his separation anxiety when we have to go to work; thundershirts, music, toys, etc. After talking to his vet and dog trainers, we figured we’d try a crate cover to try and help keep him gone when we’re not at home. Before, he would chew and dig his crate, resulting in the bottom pan getting shredded and the door being severely bent. As soon as I put the crate cover on, it was an instant change. He was a bit hesitant at first because it’s new, but he LOVES it. He’s so much calmer and more relaxed. The cover makes it darker and more enclosed like a den so he feels a lot safer.

"The cover itself is great quality! It’s easy super easy to install and fits great so my pup can’t get the corners and chew them. The material is waterproof (and drool-proof), so it’s easy to just wipe down when needed. Definitely recommend this cover! Especially if you have an anxious pup!" —Emily

Get it from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in eight sizes and 10 colors).

Promising review: "My little toy fox terrier likes to lick or chew before she goes to sleep, and I would rather it not be on my sheets or pajamas. This little toy is a nice flat substitute for a chew toy that is OK to chew." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "I was so happy to get a tag of such high quality for my needy girl!" —Demetri Vrachopoulos 

Get it from Two Tails Pet Company for $22.49 (originally $25; available in two sizes and with engraving). 

Promising review: "My 28-pound cat was able to comfortably fit in here. My vet even made a comment that it was one of the easiest carriers to get a cat in and out of. Honestly, I did not have super high hopes, but for the price, it’s a winner! All pieces are plastic and metal, so it’ll be super easy to clean, and the top opens up at a hinge that’s a little hard to close if you don’t get it lined up just right, but honestly, no complaints — does the job and does it well!" —Kayla

Get it from Amazon for $35.99+ (available in three sizes and two colors).

Promising review: My dog loves these so much, I have spare ones for trips to the dog park or beach. I've never had to replace one yet!" —A. Consumer

Get it from Amazon for $7.41 for two (clip the coupon on the product page to get it for $5.92; available in different sizes, styles, and quantities).

Promising review: "Smaller than I thought it would be, but still holds enough food and is nice to travel with instead of my dog’s bigger slow feeder. Still slows down his eating just as much as the larger slow feeder." —S.J.

Get it from Amazon for $6.39+ (available in three sizes and seven colors).

Promising review: "I needed to get another because I left my pup's at home. Can't travel without a Kong." —JKLM

Get it from Amazon for $7.96+ (available in XS–XL and packs of two; senior and puppy versions also available).

Promising review: "Great product. Keeps our dogs entertained for a while, and we even brought it on our camping trips." —Loria

Get it from Amazon for $19.50 (also available in four other styles).

Promising review: "I travel with my cat, I have gone through so many types of these things, I love it" —Turbo

Get it from Amazon for $11.27+ (available in four sizes and five colors)

Promising review: "Great for traveling, lightweight, disposable, and convenient. Pretty good size and absorbent. Large quantity so don’t have to keep buying as frequently." —L. Stock

Get 50 pads from Amazon for $10.69 (also available in a larger size and different quantities).

Set the pad on the stain, stomp on it, and toss the pad after it has absorbed the stain.

Promising review: "These work amazingly!! I left it on the carpet for 24 hours, and the stain was completely gone! I put these in my dogs’ travel bag in case of accidents. Worth every penny!" —DachshieMom

It comes with one foldable cat litter box and one cat litter box enclosure. Here's a cat litter scoop, if you need it! 

Promising review: "I was actually surprised that it worked so well. I was on a budget, so I assumed one of the less expensive travel litter boxes would be lower quality. Nope. I took two cats on a four-hour drive. Before the trip, and filling the litter, I let them play with it so they understood how to get in and out. Once the litter went in, they got the memo. It did a great job keeping the litter in. It was completely leak-proof. I was worried that it being fabric meant it could potentially be a disaster with two cats. It was sturdy, playful, kept the litter in, leak-proof, lightweight, collapsible, and easy to carry." —kate bainbridge

It comes with a backpack, a bistro box, two zippered food cubes, two collapsible bowls, a food scoop, and a feeding tray. 

Promising review: "I absolutely love the food travel kit. It’ll be perfect for all of the road trips we take with our dog." —Scott Levine

Get it from Cleverpup for $129+ (available in two sizes; the backpack is available in four colors, and the travel kit is available in five colors).

The set includes sterile gauze dressing, sterile non-adherent dressing, conforming gauze bandage, irrigation syringe, elastic bandage, self-adhering elastic bandage, triangular bandage, pet first aid manual, splinter picker/tick remover forceps, antihistamine, hydrogen peroxide, antibiotic ointment, antiseptic wipes, alcohol swabs, and saline wound and eye wash.

Promising review: "The first aid booklet has some useful information. (Basic levels of care, of course, it's a quick first response field guide, not a novel.) How to handle and identify issues like choking, poison, broken bones, bleeding wounds, snake bites, heatstroke.... which, in addition to having the first aid items, makes this kit worth purchasing. It's a great value for all the basic items you want and can easily be kept in the roomy provided bag, or is easy to condense (for backpacking etc.)." —travelkennel
