Abstract This paper presents the design, fabrication, and evaluation of an Internet of Things (IoT)–enabled pet carrier box aimed at improving safety, comfort, and convenience during animal transport. The system integrates automated temperature-controlled ventilation, real-time monitoring, and GPS tracking. Evaluation results demonstrate excellent performance in design, functionality, safety, and user satisfaction. IoT Application Pet Carrier Box is a device transport mechanism that aims to improve pet surveillance, comfort, and travel security. Despite growing demand for pet mobility solutions, existing pet carriers lack integrated systems for temperature regulation, ventilation, and real-time tracking, revealing a gap in the market for intelligent carrier designs. This paper introduces the design, development, and testing of an IoT-enabled pet carrier with features such as temperature sensors, a ventilation system, a pet monitoring camera, and GPS tracking, all controlled through a mobile app. The carrier is made with a durable Stuco body and an aluminum screen frame for strength and mobility, and it can hold small to medium-sized pets comfortably. An integrated single-fan air circulation system, triggered by a temperature sensor, automatically operates when ambient temperatures reach above 35°C, ensuring a secure environment and avoiding overheating. An A9 mini night-vision camera and real-time temperature reading provide ongoing monitoring, with location tracking of the carrier facilitated by a GPS tracker. Battery tests verified that a 12V lithium-ion battery is adequate for powering the system, though power management improvements are suggested to maximize operational time. Experimental results support the performance and responsiveness of IoT devices. In general, this study illustrates the practicality of IoT in pet transport as a technologically enhanced alternative to traditional pet carriers. Future development will concentrate on enhanced cooling performance and energy efficiency to further heighten usability and performance.
