PetSmart Focuses on Summer Pet Travel Essentials
As summer travel season begins,
PetSmart is encouraging pet parents to prepare for road trips with a range of travel-focused products and safety essentials. The company highlighted items designed to keep pets comfortable and secure during long drives, including travel carriers, portable feeding systems, cooling mats, harnesses, and car seat accessories. The campaign reflects growing consumer interest in bringing pets along on vacations and outdoor adventures.
PetSmart also emphasized the importance of planning ahead before traveling with pets. Recommendations include packing food and water supplies, ensuring pets are properly restrained in vehicles, and bringing familiar toys or bedding to reduce stress during trips.
In addition to practical travel gear, the company is leaning into the broader trend of treating pets as family members, often referring to customers as “pet parents.” Seasonal promotions and summer-themed products are intended to support everything from road trips and camping to pool days and outdoor activities.
