If you loved Up, the closest films we have are Toy Story 3 (2010), Monsters, Inc. (2001) and Tangled (2010). All three share Up's warm and whimsical feel, which is what we rank on before quality.
Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is Boy & the World (2014).

If Up hit the spot, these will too

Whimsy and real mourning holding hands in the same film
The difference: Its ache is about being outgrown, not about being left

A closed-off grown-up thawed by a small unwanted companion
The difference: Pure comfort — none of the mourning that opens Up

One thread runs through both: villain
The difference: Easier on the tenderness than Up

Warm where it counts, wistful underneath
The difference: Trades the tenderness of Up for an angle of its own

Both are built on the same subject: travel
The difference: Leans harder into fantasy than Up does

Pete Docter working the same nerve twice

Whimsical and playful in the same breath
The difference: The scrappier of the two with critics

A sheltered homebody dragged into a colorful adventure abroad
The difference: Carnival brightness, feelings kept simple

Both keep coming back to the same thing: travel

The same preoccupation in both: villain
The difference: 20 years apart, and the 1980s show

Both are working the same pair: dog, pets

Warm animation in both cases
