Considered design from real experience
Shaped by 12 years of hands-on pet transport. Designed for the pet wearing the harness and the person fitting it.
Crash-tested pet travel safety, built on 12 years of hands-on experience.
Over 10,000 pets transported safely across the UK. We're designing products that pass the crash-testing standards most pet harnesses fail.
Hello, I'm Claire
Pets2Places Products is a small business on a big mission, to make travelling with your pet genuinely safe. We're at the early, pre-launch stage, and I'd love you to follow along.
There's no judgement here. Most of us were never told what safe pet travel actually looks like. Come and learn with us.
The bit most people haven't been told
In a collision, an unrestrained pet becomes a projectile. A 20kg dog in a 30mph crash is thrown with the force of around 500kg. That's not something a lap, a boot or a loose seatbelt can hold.
Why We're Different
The Journey Ahead
Our first product is a harness for dogs between 5 and 15kg. A cat carrier is planned next, and a full range will follow over the coming years.
Joining now means you'll see it all unfold, the testing, the decisions, the honest bits in between.
The people and the track record behind it
Pets2Places Products is led by Claire Harris, founder of the world's first pet taxi franchise. We're not doing this alone. We're working with specialists whose names you can look up.

A Few Things People Often Ask
When will the first product launch?
We're pre-launch. The harness for dogs between 5 and 15kg is in development now, and joining the journey is the best way to be told the moment it's ready.
What does crash tested actually mean?
For us, it means tested to the same 30mph forward-facing standard used for children's car seats. Anything less doesn't earn the words.
Will there be a product for my cat?
Yes. A cat carrier is planned as one of our early products, because so many of the carriers used today simply aren't safe in a crash.
