About Us: Bug-out Bags for Pets – Your Emergency Evacuation Companion
Our Journey
Founded in 2017, Bug-out Bags for Pets was born out of a passion for pet safety and a growing concern about the lack of comprehensive resources available to pet owners during emergency evacuations. Our journey began when we realized that while many focus on preparing human-centric disaster kits, there was a significant gap in information regarding specialized gear for our furry friends.
Over the years, we’ve established ourselves as a leading online resource, dedicated to empowering pet parents with the knowledge and tools needed to keep their companions safe during unpredictable events. Our mission has always been to bridge this information divide and ensure that every pet owner has access to reliable, unbiased guidance on preparing bug-out bags specifically designed for pets.
