BUILT FOR THE SEAT IN FRONT OF YOU

The Out-of-Office Pet Carrier is designed with a soft-sided frame that can flex to accommodate under-seat spaces. For additional flexibility when flying, the rear pocket insert can be removed before boarding.

Seat dimensions vary by airline and aircraft. Always confirm your airline’s current pet travel requirements before you fly.

FLYING WITH ROVERLUND

Roverlund pets have traveled on major airlines across the U.S. Because aircraft configurations and pet policies vary, always confirm your airline’s current requirements for your specific flight before you travel.

FAQs

HOW DO I MEASURE MY PET?

Measure body length from the front of the chest to the rear, not including the tail. Measure shoulder height from the top of the shoulder to the paw while your pet is standing naturally.

HOW SNUG CAN THE CARRIER BE?

The carrier can be comfortably close-fitting, especially for airline travel. Your pet should be able to settle naturally, lie down and reposition without feeling compressed.

DOES MY PET NEED TO STAND FULLY UPRIGHT IN THE CARRIER?

No. A good fit is cozy rather than roomy. Your pet should be able to lie down or curl up comfortably, reposition themselves and turn around, but they do not need to stand fully upright inside the carrier.

IS THE PET CARRIER AIRLINE COMPLIANT?

The Out-of-Office Pet Carrier is designed to comply with the in-cabin pet carrier requirements of most major airlines. Requirements can vary by airline, route, aircraft model and seat configuration, so we always recommend confirming your airline’s current pet policy before flying.

WILL THE CARRIER FIT UNDER THE AIRLINE SEAT?

The Out-of-Office Pet Carrier is designed to fit under the seat in front of you on most major airlines. For even greater flexibility, remove the rear pocket insert before flying so the carrier can more easily adapt to the available under-seat space. Because dimensions can vary by airline, aircraft and seat configuration, always check your airline’s current requirements before travel.

CAN CATS USE THE CARRIER?

Yes. The Out-of-Office Pet Carrier can work well for cats as long as their measurements fall within the recommended fit guidelines and they can lie down, reposition and turn around comfortably.
