Magic Net Add-on 26.0+

Catching and transporting friendly creatures becomes simple and convenient. For this, you’ll need the mod Magic Net for Minecraft. The add-on features a Magic Net — a special item that lets you easily and quickly capture friendly creatures. After that, you can release them anywhere you want.

Unfortunately, this only works on harmless creatures, so you don’t accidentally bring a Zombie or Creeper into your house. To craft it, just combine String and Sticks.
