5 Must Have Packing Products for Pet Owners in Columbus

If you’re a pet owner, then you know that keeping your pet comfortable for a move is important. After all, they’re changing homes too! For over 20 years, All My Sons Columbus full-service movers have assisted families (and pets) with relocating to new cities and new homes. To assist you, we’ve outlined 5 of the most important things to pack for pet owners who are moving.

Keep a Small Box of Essential Items for Your Pet Handy
We all have things that we need to get by. Your pet does too. Make sure to pack a small cardboard box of items that your pet will need in the first couple of days as you all settle in. This may include a leash, a few cans of food, medicine, etc. Whatever your pet uses on a day to day basis should be considered for your pet essentials box. If you need a cardboard box, contact your Columbus movers and packers!

 
Your Pet’s Favorite Toy
Every pet’s personality is different. Take dogs for example. Some dogs can’t wait to get out on the open road and let their tongues fly in the wind. On the other hand, some dogs get extreme anxiety when in a moving vehicle. If your pet’s personality falls on the latter side, keeping their favorite toy nearby could be helpful.

 
Travel Water Bottle
Some animals overheat quickly. If you’re moving with pets, especially in a long-distance move, make sure to pack a travel water bottle for pets.

 

A Sweater
Contrarily, Columbus can get cold in the winter. This is a time where you may want to pack a sweater for your furry companion to keep them from getting sick.

 

Vaccinations Paperwork
You never know what can happen on the road. If for any reason you need to rush your pet to the vet, be sure to keep their paperwork on hand with their updated vaccinations.
