Here at Rover, we love going on adventures with our dogs, whether to the local dog park or to dog-friendly hiking spots. Many of us also commute with our dogs, so we’re always looking for ways to improve our dog transportation game. That’s one reason we love these dog carriers, trailers, and other essentials for getting out with your dog. We’ve even tested some of them right here in the office.
If you’re looking for a unique gift for the active dog lover in your life—look no further.
Burley Tail Wagon Bike Trailer
This sturdy trailer from trusted brand Burley makes it easy to take your dog with you when biking. We’re impressed by its craftsmanship and attention to detail, and the fact that up to three little dogs can fit in it comfortably and safely.
K9 Sport Sack
For dogs up to about 35 pounds, this surprisingly comfy carrier can’t be beat. It’s like a baby backpack…but even better.
Sleepypod ClickIt Sport Car Safety Dog Harness
This harness has been crash tested and certified. It’s the first and only dog safety harness in the industry to be certified by the Independent Pet Safety Research Institution, the Center For Pet Safety.
Ruffwear – Approach Full-Day Hiking Pack
Who says your dog can’t carry their share? In fact, many dogs, especially working breeds, love to have a job like carrying gear.
Hurtta Extreme Warmer Dog Winter Jacket
This is no wimpy sweater. The Hurtta will keep your dog warm in a blizzard or on a skiing expedition, and then some.
Whistle 3 GPS Pet Tracker & Activity Monitor
Track your dog’s activity with this GPS-enabled device that syncs with your phone via an app.
Kurgo Step ‘n Strobe Dog Boots
Cold weather and rough terrain can hurt your dog’s sensitive paw pads. That’s where boots come in, and Kurgo makes some of the best.
Pet First Aid Kit
Stash one in the car and take one with you, and you’ll be set to help treat minor injuries, bee stings, and other possible problems on the trail (or the road).
