Many owners of small dogs enjoy taking their Fido with them while traveling. Whether you want to take your pup along while running errands or while on a cross country tour, a travel carrier will make it much easier for you and more comfortable for him. The IBIYAYA EVA Wheeled Dog Carrier has a versatile 4-in-1 design that makes it easy to take your dog along with you anywhere.
“When you're looking f.or the right carrier for your pet, the size is the most important thing to look for. Most carriers will come with a weight restriction, but you need to look at the measurements of the carrier as well.

Let's say your dog weighs 20 pounds, and you find a carrier that can hold dogs weighing up to 25 pounds. That will work, right? Well, not always. Some 20 pound dogs are taller than others, and some are wider than others.
Measure your dog's height from the top of his to the floor. Then measure the width of the widest part of his body, which should be his shoulders. You'll also need to measure his length from the tip of his nose to the base of his tail.
Make sure that the interior measurements of the carrier you're looking at are an appropriate size for your dog. Again, even if your dog is under the weight limit, you need to also be sure that the measurements of the carrier are suitable for him.
If you've been looking at the IBIYAYA EVA Wheeled Carrier and aren't sure if it's right for your pup, I'll give you all the details in this review. If it's the right size and you think your dog will be comfortable, this could be just the right carrier for your needs.
IBIYAYA EVA Wheeled Dog Carrier Review
In my video review above, you can see how easy it is to convert this carrier from a shoulder bag carrier, to a backpack carrier, to a wheeled travel carrier, and finally to a pet car seat. This is absolutely the most versatile dog carrier that I have ever used.
The carrier measures 19.7″L x 11.8″W x 13.4″H. It can hold a dog weighing up to 17.5 pounds and is available in 5 colors:
- apple green
- hot pink
- chocolate
- royal blue
- tangerine (the color shown in my review)
The carrier itself weighs less than 5 pounds, but the total weight of the carrier and the wheeled cart is 6.3 pounds. It's light enough to carry around through airports or bus terminals, and the carrier is light enough for most pet owners to carry their pooch comfortably on their back or over their shoulder.
The IBIYAYA EVA Wheeled Dog Carrier is made of EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate) material on the outside, which is lightweight and waterproof. This material is also very durable and is proven to be stress crack resistant. This carrier has even passed a stress crack test, according to the company's website.
The patented 4-in-1 design features a removable and padded shoulder strap, and the wheeled cart has a telescoping handle. As you can see in my video review video, the carrier also comes apart and collapses for easy storage.
The sides of the carrier are secured with zippers. Once removed, the sides become the outer shell of the carrying case, and the middle of the carrier can be folded and placed between the inside. The outer shell can then be zipped together to create a convenient carrying case that is just a few inches tall.
I wish this carrier was available in a larger size, but if your dog can fit it's a great option. There is plenty of ventilation, and the IBIYAYA EVA Wheeled Dog Carrier also has a small storage pocket on the front.
If you will be using this as a backpack carrier most of the time, you may need to get a different strap. The one that comes with the carrier is just a woven nylon strap, so there is no padding. If your dog is close to the 17 pound mark, you'll probably appreciate having a little padding on your shoulders.
Unfortunately, the price won't fit into everyone's budget. The IBIYAYA EVA Wheeled Dog Carrier can be purchased on Amazon or on the IBIYAYA website for $89.99. Obviously that's pretty expensive for a dog carrier, but since it's a 4-in-1 product I believe it's still a good value for the money.
