Adjust the shoulder strap to a comfortable length, then settle your pet into the sling. Connect the safety belt and secure the clipped head strap before lifting or walking. Keep your pet positioned comfortably inside the carrier and use the magnetic pocket for lightweight essentials you want close at hand. For errands, a neighborhood walk, or travel, the hands-free design lets you carry your pet while keeping your hands available for everyday tasks. Follow the care instructions for machine washing after use.
