Description
Lightweight pet stroller and dog pram for small dogs and cats, with an easy fold and a detachable carrier that lifts straight off the frame. Holds pets up to 20kg. The built in safety leash clips to the harness so your pet stays secure, while breathable mesh panels keep fresh air flowing on warm days. The padded cabin gives anxious or older pets a calm place to ride on walks, vet visits, markets and café trips, and the folded frame slips easily into a car boot. Suits one small dog or cat, or two little mates riding together. Available in Beige and Navy. A calm, comfortable everyday pram for pets that love coming along but tire on the way home.
Materials & care
- Lightweight folding frame — rigid yet featherlight, folds flat in seconds, holds pets to 20kg.
- Detachable carrier — the cabin lifts off the frame for cars and vet visits.
- Breathable mesh + safety clip — mesh on every side, with a built-in harness leash inside.
Care — Wipe the frame; spot-clean the liner and air-dry.

REAL ANSWERS ABOUT FIT, SAFETY AND EVERYDAY TRANSPORT
Frequently Asked Questions
Current answers about product fit, features, care and everyday use.
Is the stroller weight limit enough information to know whether my dog will fit?
No. Weight is only one limit. Measure your pet while standing and lying naturally, then compare those measurements with the cabin dimensions on the product page. Leave room to turn around and settle without being pressed against the canopy.
How do I choose between the Essential and Ultimate pet strollers?
Choose by your pet's measured size, combined weight and the way you travel. The Essential is the lighter 20 kg option for everyday outings. The Ultimate supports up to 22 kg and is the better starting point when you want more cabin space and a tether system with two attachment points. Check the product measurements against the space your pet needs to sit, turn and lie down before ordering.
Do the Pawbella stroller carriers detach from the frame?
Yes. Both the Essential and Ultimate have detachable carriers. A detachable carrier is useful for carrying your pet away from the stroller frame, but it is not described as a crash-tested vehicle restraint. Secure pets in the car using an appropriate vehicle restraint system.
How does the safety tether system work in each pet stroller?
Current product information describes a built-in safety tether system with two attachment points in both the Essential and Ultimate. Confirm the supplied tether hardware when your order arrives, attach only to correctly fitted harnesses, never collars, and keep the enclosure closed while moving.
Can I jog with a Pawbella pet stroller?
The Essential and Ultimate are walking strollers, not purpose-built jogging strollers. Use them at a controlled walking pace, engage the brake whenever stopped and slow down for kerbs, slopes or uneven ground.
Will the folded stroller fit in my car boot?
Boot shapes vary, so compare the stroller's listed folded dimensions with the narrowest usable opening and floor space in your vehicle. Allow extra room for the detachable carrier and any accessories rather than relying on vehicle type alone.
How do I introduce a nervous dog or cat to a stroller?
Start indoors with the brake engaged. Let your pet investigate the stationary cabin, reward calm behaviour and practise short enclosed sessions before moving. Progress to brief, quiet walks and stop if your pet shows persistent stress, heat discomfort or motion sickness.
