A collapsible sound reducing pet container when fully assembled forms an enclosure having a generally rectangular volume with manually disassembleable top, bottom, front, rear, left, and right panels. The front panel defines a cutout having an area less than that of the front panel, and at least one of the panels comprises multiple layers of dissimilar soundproofing material. An electric fan is mounted to one of the panels, and a means is provided for energizing the fan responsive to presence of an animal within the enclosure. Each of the top, front, rear, left and right panels may be manually disassembled and each is sized to allow all of said panels to be stacked between and enclosed within the top and bottom panels, to collapse the container for transport and storage.
