Pet parenting isn’t always a walk in the park, especially when your furry friend can no longer handle taking actual walks in the actual park. But just because your pet is aging, recovering from an injury, or a bit too anxious to handle crowded streets doesn’t mean that they don’t want (or need!) the great outdoors. That’s where pet strollers come in! So whether you’re shopping for a heavy-duty wagon with a loading ramp for your big ol’ dog, a multifunctional carrier/stroller to transport several cats at the same time, or a travel-friendly stroller you can fold flat and toss in your trunk, we’ve got you and your pet covered with these highly rated, reviewer-loved picks.
Best overall: Pet Gear Happy Trails Lite No-Zip Stroller
A reviewer-beloved stroller with a lightweight, completely foldable design and a weight limit of 25 pounds — perfect for kitties, puppies, and small to medium dogs. It also has a canopy to shield your perfect pet from rain or shine, and a tether on the inside to keep them secure. It’s got easily cleanable, water-resistant fabric (in case of accidents), shock-absorbing front wheels (in case of bumpy rides), and a large storage basket on the bottom (for your purse/poop bags/dog treats — or all three). Plus, it’s got a cupholder for strolling and sipping.
Promising review: “Folds and unfolds quite easily. It’s roomy (fits two Chihuahuas), the cargo basket is roomy. It has a front clasp instead of a zipper. And it has three large screen windows, including both front and back. It keeps my dog cool in the summer. It’s study and not at all top-heavy. The push handle is high enough that it fits me…the push handle of most pet strollers are not tall enough to be comfortable for me.” —MerleAnne

Best for large dogs: HPZ Pet Rover Titan-HD
A heavy-duty stroller that’s great for large dogs. It can hold up to 100 pounds and features a ramp, so if your Large Lad has mobility issues, you can easily load him into the stroller *without* trying to pick him up. And to make pushing this big ol’ thing easier on yourself, it has pumpless, rubber wheels that are super durable. No flat tires here!
Promising review: “This stroller is just what Sophie, my 13-year-old German Shepherd needed. Sophie has degenerative myelopathy (DM), which makes it very difficult for her to walk more than a few feet. I was afraid the stroller might not be long enough but it was very comfortable for her. Sophie was very active and enjoyed off-lease romps in the open fields by our home. With her DM getting worse and worse, she just lies on her mat indoors, missing the outdoors. The Titan-HD has given her access to the outdoors she loves. Thank you Pet Rover for this exceptional quality, sturdy, easy-to-operate stroller.” —amazoncustomer

Best for medium dogs: Zoosky Medium Stroller
A stroller ideal for medium-size dogs with two low-to-ground entry points, so it’s easy for older or injured dogs to load themselves into the cart without straining. It can hold up to 66 pounds and is even spacious enough for dogs who are…a little wider than they are narrow. 🥴
P.S. — It’s also tall enough to accommodate dogs who like to stand up.
Promising review: “I spent a lot of time researching dog strollers. My pup has medical issues and can’t walk for long period of time and also can’t be left alone. After weeks of researching, aka looking around Amazon and reading specs, I found this one and I am so glad I went with Zoosky. The basket size is what was my main concern because even though I have a smaller dog I wanted him to have plenty of room to be comfortable. Not only does he have plenty of room, my bigger boy can squeeze in there if there was ever a need. Assembly was a breeze. The directions are easy to follow and I had it put together and my pup in it within 10 minutes of getting it out of the box. While being well made and sturdy, the stroller is very easy to maneuver in tight spaces and is surprisingly lightweight when folded. I’m older so being able to get it in and out of the car easily is a bonus.” —Candie H.
Get it from Amazon for $137.69.
Best for small dogs: Nova Microdermabrasion Small Stroller
An itty-bitty stroller for the most petite pups (under 30 pounds) — it has a mesh window at the top so you can keep an eye on your little rascal, even as you walk. Plus, the dog basket is detachable so you can use it as a carrier, too!
Promising review: “My dog loves this!! So do I! Good quality, sturdy and I love that I cans fold it easily and it’s light. Pretty smooth ride.” —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $65.98 (available in six colors, including a non-detachable style).
Best for cats: Roodo Pet Stroller
A cat-friendly stroller with a zip-closure canopy to prevent any escape artistry that your frisky little furball could get up to. It’s got multidirectional, breathable fabric to keep your kitty cat feeling comfortable and safe but not restricted, so whether you’re just soaking up the sun or strolling to the vet, it’ll be smooth sailing.
Promising review: “Easy to put together, very smooth and we used it on the sidewalk, road, grass and in gravel. My old girl wasn’t disturbed over bumps. I also enjoy how much mesh is on this stroller, as I’ve seen some with only a small window, but this one has plenty of ventilation and ways for our elder girl to see out without having to stand. Very fair price and works great. There is a leash to connect to collar for extra safety and security for your pet too. I wish I purchased this sooner!” —Morgan Petersen
Get it from Amazon for $95.98 (available in three colors).
Best for travel: Lincae All-Terrain Pet Stroller
A foldable stroller with a 160-pound capacity so you can haul several pets when you need to travel — and this is the *best* option for traveling since its sturdy steel frame collapses to be completely flat for packing. It also features quick-release wheels so you can easily get it into in the trunk of your car when it’s go-time. And besides being ridiculously easy to transport, it’s super sturdy and has adjustable handles so it’s comfortable for both your pet and you to walk long distances, even if the terrain is rather tricky.
Promising review: “We love this pet stroller. It is very well made and quite sturdy. One can travel with it since it actually folds up nicely. Much sturdier and practical versus a regular wagon. Very pleased with this purchase. In fact, my daughter loves it so much she is begging me to give it to her!! Fat chance. The quality is excellent. It is roomy enough that we can get both of our girls in there since they both only weigh 40 pounds each. Dog stroller excellence!” —Deborah Essary
Get it from Amazon for $199.99.
Best for jogging: Pet Gear AT3 No-Zip Stroller
A three-wheel stroller with jogging tires, perfect for the pet parents out there who want to squeeze in a bit of a workout while also giving the pup some fresh air. It’s sturdy but not bulky, and reviewers say it doesn’t wobble while jogging; plus, the arms are the perfect height so you don’t strain your back by running with improper posture. Bonus: It has cupholders for your water bottle or iced coffee.
Promising review: “I had been searching for a doggie stroller to take my Highness on long walks/runs, and this is it! Quality is exceptional! It is light in weight and easy to assemble. It folds easily and has great safety features: It has a leash strap hook, a cover for sun protection, secure locks, and a net cover to prevent your fur baby from jumping out or anything jumping in. I emailed the company directly from the manual website to inquire about a couple of questions and received a prompt response. I was incredibly impressed with the expedited service and their exceptional customer service, that alone was worth every cent! I cannot say enough great things about this doggy stroller and the company. I highly recommend this phenomenal pet stroller!” —Amazon Customer

Best budget stroller: BestPet 3-Wheel Stroller
A budget-friendly stroller that comes in at just under $45 but still packs a punch with its features: It’s easy to assemble, travel friendly, and has shock-absorbing wheels that are sturdy enough to maneuver around most terrains. Plus, it’s got zipper-closure windows so your pet can easily soak up the sun (or be sheltered from the rain). The best part, though? It’s SO lightweight — just 11 pounds!
Promising review: “This. This stroller is EVERYTHING. What an adorably easy assembly. My dog LOVES it. Has all the places for all my things and perfect coffee cupholders. Brakes. Easy steering. Easy to close and perfect cover for shade. We both love it. The price is also excellent for the size! My dog is 13 pounds and fits perfectly with plenty of extra space! Also rolls easily on all types of ground! Rocks, grass, etc.” —Kim
Get it from Amazon for $44.99 (available in five colors).
Best multi-pet stroller: Giantex Double Pet Stroller
A multi-pet stroller with a double-decker design and detachable carriers, so if you have several small pets who need to go to the vet at the same time, you can do it all by yourself. Each carrier supports up to 17 pounds.
Promising review: “I was skeptical and hesitant but decided to give it a shot and I’m glad I did. This is a big, spacious and comfortable carrier/stroller. It can easily fit two standard-size cats in each carrier. I foster kittens and every weekend have adoption events so this has been a lifesaver. I had five kittens at the time and it fit them no problem. I normally have 10–15 at a time so I’ll be curious how many fit comfortably, but I think confidently and comfortably 10. Its only downfall is the straps — they make carrying the carriers unstable, and the bottom portion of the stroller doesn’t have a middle support, so when your carrier is full and you’re trying to place it, they sometimes fall between the bars, giving them a bit of a ride. We are going to see what we can do to modify it that won’t cause issues with it folding closed. The carriers are strong and sturdy. There is a lot of mesh so if your animal bites or claws at stuff a lot, it won’t last long for those parts. The other fabric is canvas and strong. The stroller moves easily; just make sure to unlock all wheels. I didn’t unlock the front and it didn’t move well. I’m excited to see when the kitten season comes and how many I can comfortably transport. This has made my traveling so nice and easier. 100% recommend this!” —Nicole Roach
