Calculators & finders
Pet Emergency Kit Builder
Start here. Tell it your pets and your biggest regional hazard and it builds a tailored, checkable, printable kit list, sourced to Ready.gov, the ASPCA, and the AVMA, that routes each item to the right calculator or template.
Build your kit →Pet Emergency Supply Calculator
Enter your dogs and cats and get sourced water, food, medication, and litter totals for a 72-hour, 7-day, or 2-week supply, plus a printable shopping list. Every figure traces to a published ASPCA, AVMA, CDC, or vet-reviewed source.
Open the calculator →Pet Carrier Fit Finder
Enter your dog or cat's weight and get the right carrier type, sized to real manufacturer weight ratings from our reviewed picks, with the changes for senior, injured, or anxious pets flagged.
Open the finder →Pet Medication Refill Calculator
Enter the last refill date, how long a fill lasts, and the buffer you want to keep, and get the exact date to reorder so a storm or an evacuation never leaves your pet low on medication. Pure date math, no dosing advice.

Open the sheetPet Travel & Relocation Document Organizer
Traveling or moving with a pet: one sheet for the health-certificate and rabies dates, microchip, destination vet, lodging pet policy, and a pre-trip checklist, with each rule pointed back to the authority that sets it. Fill it in or print it blank.

The complete go-bag list on one print-friendly page, mapped to Ready.gov and ASPCA guidance with per-animal quantities. Tape one copy inside your supply bin and keep one in the car.
