Packing list
Travelling with a pet: packing list
This travelling with a pet: packing list is a printable checklist. Pets need their own bag. Food, familiar bedding and their records keep a new place calm — for them and for you.
This list is for a four-day road trip with one pet. Wayfold keeps a separate list for your pet next to yours.

How to use this list
Start a day or two before you leave and pack one category at a time, ticking items off as they go in the bag — your ticks are saved in this browser. Quantities follow the trip above: clothes scale with the number of days, with a little extra for spares. Travelling longer, in different weather or with more people? Open the list in Wayfold and it recalculates for your dates, the forecast and everyone travelling.
