An autonomous traveling device (1) configured to tow a cart (2) including a caster (23), which swivels around an axis (CP) perpendicular to a rotation axis (SP) of a wheel (23a), includes a drive wheel (71); a self-position detection unit (111) to detect a position of the autonomous traveling device (1); a forward travel control unit (112) to drive the drive wheel (71) to move the autonomous traveling device (1) forward; a backward travel control unit (115) to drive the drive wheel (71) to move the autonomous traveling device (1) backward; and a turning control unit (113) to drive the drive wheel (71) to turn the autonomous traveling device (1). In response to a detection that the autonomous traveling device (1) towing the cart (2) is at a turning position, the forward travel control unit (112) and the turning control unit (113) drive the drive wheel (71) so that the autonomous traveling device (1) turns by a predetermined angle while moving forward or backward. Based on a determination that the autonomous traveling device (1) towing the cart (2) is at a moving-back position, the backward travel control unit (115) drive the drive wheel (71) to move the autonomous traveling device (1) backward to a target position.
