Want to bring your pup along for the ride, but could do without the dog hair, dirt, and slobber on your car seats? A car seat cover will protect your car from dog wear and tear, so you never have to think twice about bringing your pup on your next adventure.
Kurgo offers a variety of durable car seat protectors for dogs to meet your car travel needs, whether your dog rides in the front seat, back seat, or boot area. All Kurgo seat covers are made with strong fabric and are stain resistant and waterproof. They feature multiple points of attachment for a secure fit, openings for easy seatbelt access, and storage pockets for toys and treats.
Which Kurgo dog car seat cover is the right one for you? It depends on where your dog prefers to sit.
A bucket car seat cover is the perfect solution for dogs that prefer - and are welcome in - the front passenger seat, although they can also be used on single seats elsewhere in the vehicle. They are designed to fit snugly around the bottom and back of the seat.
For back seat furry companions, our popular bench car seat covers provide door-to-door protection, without sacrificing human passenger seating. Made with rugged, waterproof materials, Kurgo’s bench seat covers provide a dependable barrier between your seat and anything your dog brings in: i.e., moisture, dirt, and dog hair. They come in several styles to fit your travel needs, all with multiple attachment points - top, middle, and under the seat - to keep the seat cover firmly in place. Most standard bench seats are 140 cms wide.
For longer seats, check out our extended width bench seat covers. Another back seat solution, a dog car hammock offers all-around protection from paws and toenails, extending from the back of the front seats to the front of the back seats. The hammock seat cover design prevents dogs from falling into the footwell, while doubling as a barrier to keep your pup from jumping up front. Most of our dog car hammocks feature centre zippers, so you can fold back half to make space for a human passenger, or opt for a half hammock option to keep your dog contained to just half of the back seat and leaving space for a passenger to ride along.
If your dog typically rides in the way back, Kurgo’s Rover Cargo Cape cover will keep your boot free of dirt and grime. The cover lays flat in the storage area with multiple attachment points to keep it securely in place. A centre zipper makes it easy to fold the seats up and down as needed. And when the ride’s over, a waterproof bumper guard folds out to protect your bumper from sharp claws.
For smaller pups who want to look out the window a booster seat is the perfect choice.
Car Door Guards Does your dog like to lean his head out the window? Then you’ll want to protect the door and windowsill from scratches, dirt, and moisture. Kurgo’s car door guard is an excellent complement to any car seat protector for dogs. Locking tabs fit between the window and windowsill to keep the door guard securely in place.
Dog Seat Belts Dog seat belts are essential for keeping your pet safe and secure during car rides. Designed to prevent distractions and protect your dog in case of sudden stops, the Direct to Seat Belt Tether attach to your dog's harness and clip into your car's seatbelt buckle.
