FAQs
Q: Is your seat cover waterproof?
Yes, our seat covers feature waterproof layer technology, so it's great for wet dogs, spills, sand and mud! However, seams, zippers, and seatbelt openings are not 100% watertight. This is why our seatbelt openings are located on the backrest panel (instead of the seat bottom where most spills tend to pool) to maximise the protection to your car seats.
Q: Are car hammocks safe for dogs?
Yes, a car hammock is one of the safest ways for dogs to travel in the car! Hammock-style seat covers will keep your canine companion safely contained in the back seat. Additionally, the hammock style of our car seat cover helps your dog to feel comfortable and calm, which is great for canines who suffer from travel anxiety. Our car seat cover also comes with two adjustable shock absorbing seatbelts which can attached either at the headrest or via the seatbelt buckle. The cover has two openings for the seat belts to go through so you can anchor your dog and ensure maximum safety.
Q: What is the safest way for a dog to travel in a car?
It is recommended that dogs are restrained using a dog seat belt during travel, which should be attached to a harness (instead of a collar) as this allows for controlled, safe movement within the car. Dog car seat covers such as ours and the included seatbelts add an extra layer of safety to your pet. Crate are another great way travel with your dog, however, most people find these bulky, expensive, and inconvenient when you need extra space for passengers.
Q: Is it illegal to carry an unrestrained dog in a car?
This will depend on where you live, since dog safety regulations vary between different states and countries. It is illegal in most Australian states. Nonetheless, we recommend keep your dog restrained at all times during car rides, as it adds to safety. You can use a specialised dog seat belt for this, or a harness that works with a regular seat belt.
Q: Can you get fined for having a dog in the car?
Yes, you can get fined for having a dog in the car, but only if you don't follow the local regulations. It's also your responsibility to ensure that the dog does not distract you while you are driving. If you keep the dog in the rear seat and use a dog seat belt, you can rest assured you are on the right side of the law anywhere in the Australia.
Q: Are your products suited to big dogs?
Yes absolutely! Our seat covers are made from an extremely durable, scratch and abrasion-resistant fabric and can be used as a rear cargo/boot liner to suit bigger dogs. Headrest straps are double bar-tacked for extra strength.
Q: Can you put a dog in the trunk?
This will depend on the local regulations in the area where you live, and on the type of car. In a regular passenger car, dogs can usually ride in the back. You can use this seat cover to protect the your boot area too so you don't have to shop for additional pet supplies. If you are driving a ute or anything with an open trailer in the back, you must ensure also ensure your dog is properly restrained.
Q: Do dogs need seat belts?
Yes - a dog seat belt is generally the easiest and safest option to keeping your dog safely restrained during travel.
Q: Can dogs travel long-distance in a car?
Yes, dogs can travel long distances in a car. However, it is important to make sure that your pet is comfortable during the ride. Products like this hammock for your back seat can greatly help with that. Besides protecting the car seat and keeping the dog comfortable, this car hammock also comes with a mesh window in the front that lets you monitor the dog during the ride and promotes sufficient airflow. A dog seat belt can also be helpful to add an extra layer of safety.
Q: Can my dog sit in the front seat?
It is typically not illegal for a dog to ride in the front seat (but do check the local regulations in your area). However, dogs should not ride in the front seat if your car is equipped with an air bag on the passenger side (unless you disable it). In the case of an accidents, the air bag could go off and hurt or suffocate the dog. This is because air bags are built only for humans. It is also important to note that fines apply in most Australian states if the dog obstructs your view of the road.
Q: Can this car seat cover be used for cars with both left-hand and right-hand steering wheel alignments?
Our car seat cover was designed to best suit cars with steering wheels located on the right-hand side of the car, with the pocket located on the drivers side for convenience and the removable front seat cover section being located behind the passenger seat. However, it can still easily be used for either type of car. We do plan on launching this product with reversed orientation to suit cars with a left-hand steering alignment. Sign up to our mailing list to be notified of important announcements like this!
Q: Can a Child Seat be installed with the APAWLO Pets seat cover?
Yes! Our seat cover allows for the fitment of a Child Seat thanks to the removable single seat section. The mesh window can also be be fully supported while in in Half Seat style by looping one of the side straps over the passenger seat headrest and attaching this to the buckle at the mesh window.

The problem with hard bottom covers
No more sliding around back there
Dogs rely on good footing to stay balanced — especially seniors and dogs with joint or mobility issues. On firm, slippery surfaces, they need to continually adjust their stance and compensate to maintain stability, placing unnecessary strain on their muscles and joints over time.
Our soft-bottom design preserves your back seat’s natural cushioning, giving your dog a comfortable place to sit, stand and settle — without a hard board underneath. No need to purchase an extra bed to top it.
2x free restraints included
Buckle up, your way.
Every seat cover comes with two adjustable, shock-absorbing 2-in-1 restraints. Attach them directly to your car’s seatbelt buckle or loop them around the headrest — giving you more flexibility to find the setup that works for your car and dog.

Description
A shock-absorbing, multifunctional seatbelt to keep your dog safe and restrained during car trips. Can be used two different ways:
Attached to headrest: Secure the headrest strap around your headrest, and then attach the seatbelt to the carabiner clip by the strap (we do not recommend attaching universal seatbelt clip directly to the carabiner to avoid damage to the universal clip). Secure the dog clip to your dog's harness to restrain your dog and you're good to go!
Not suitable for fixed or molded headrests where the strap cannot be locked underneath. For safety reasons, we recommend using the buckle attachment in vehicles with fixed headrests.
Attached to seatbelt buckles: Simply 'click' the buckle into the seat belt socket and attach the clip to your dog's harness to restrain your dog.
- Material: Nylon & Stainless Steel
- Shock absorbing
- 39-53cm adjustable strap length
- Universal seatbelt clip
- Carabiner clip
- Dog leash clip

Customer Reviews
Overall rating: 4.9 / 5 from 118 reviews.
Great quality and fits well in our car. Love that you can remove a section to allow for a passenger to sit in the back, very easy to unzip it and later zip it back on. It stays put on the seat, making it more stable for the dogs as they move around. The big window os also great to allow better airflow from aircon to the back on hot days. Very pleased with the purchase!
Keeps all the fur and dirt in one place. Love it
Great seat cover. Fits really well and made of nice sturdy material. Comes with great accessories. And I especially like the seat anchors and the mesh so my girl can see through to the front and the air con can reach her.
Just what we have been looking for. Versatile for kids/dogs, bungee tether, waterproof, rubber backed, and very well built!
The day I found Apawlo pets, life got better. This is the best car seat cover I have ever come across and it has worked miracles for my sanity (so much fur!) and my girl Hazel. It keeps my backseat spotless when I need to switch back to people mode no matter how many times we got for a muddy trip to the dog park in the rain, or a swim at the beach or a play with our doggy friends who drool all over her. And the bungy cord I can attach to her harness means she is able to find the comfy spot or still sniff out the window. So easy to vacuum or hose off if she’s brought the mud home with her and it’s as good as new. Couldn’t recommend it enough!
Absolutely love it 🤩 perfect for keeping the car clean with 2 dirty cattle dogs. Great quality
Um-ed and ah-ed about getting a new backseat cover after being disappointed with other, similarly-priced brands… but I’m so glad I did! The quality, ease to use and clean and customer service are second-to-none. Have been recommending to everyone! Can’t wait to see what Apawlo do next 😍
11/10 highly recommend!! Best car seat hammock I have ever had for my boys, recommend to anyone who has dogs 1000% and the updated model is by far the best yet and I didn’t think they could get any better
Fits my Yaris ok, not too big. Love the option of splitting the cover should I have an extra person in the car. Maggie gives it her approval too 🐾 she can get muddy and it's so easy to clean.
Absolutely love how multifunctional this car seat cover is! So many different ways of using it for a great price. It also has a pocket space where you can store extra accessories which we love.
Love it! It fits really well in the backseat of my Subaru Forester. I've been able to put my puppy in the backseat for hour long car trips and know she's safe and secure back there, but the mesh allows her to keep an eye on us in the front and still allows the aircon to flow through to her in the back.
LOVE THIS! It arrived quickly! The quality is amazing, nice and strong. Easy to set up and easy to clean! This is the perfect car seat cover for any doggo! 😍
I love this car seat, it’s so easy to assemble and looks great. Fast shipping to the states and keeps my car clean! Can’t recommend it enough.
Pickle LOVES her car seat cover!! And we love how easy it was to set up and how safe she is. The quality is amaze!! Plus the 2 seatbelts make this such great value! Thanks Winnie & April 💕💕
Amazing product
Love the Apawlo Pets multi functional car seat cover that fits beautifully in my new SUV. Ruby loves it and I know she is safe in the back seat with the shock absorbing seatbelt that comes with the cover.
Would definitely recommend! The quality is so good and seems really tough. It's really easy to put in and take out. It will definitely come in handy with the many beach visits over summer.
Have been using your car seat cover for about a month now and love it. Best one I’ve ever bought. Look forward to really testing it out in summer with beach visits, but my seats are definitely better protected. And the harness attachment makes me feel like my dog is very secure and safe. My dog really appreciates the hammock style and being able to lie any way she wishes without slipping off the seat.
Amazing product. So easy to install and our little kelpie loves it. Highly recommend and definitely will get buying another one for the second car.
So protective of the car and comfy for our little Westin. He loves it.
I recently brought my dream car and this seat cover has been an absolute saviour! It may be winter but this bundle of energy still needs his adventures and not a speck of the mud on him has gotten on my seat or doors. It’s a bonus knowing that the seatbelts are keeping my baby safe. Thank you for making a product that ticks all the boxes, there’s nothing else that comes close on the market!
After a hike and many swamp swims, the cover really helps!
When it came down to upgrading Banjo’s car seat cover, we knew it had to be APAWLO PETS!!! We love our new seat cover and are super happy to be supporting a small and local business.
We love our 4 in 1 Dog Car Seat Cover! The quality is amazing, so easy to clean - especially after our beach and camping trips! We love the extra bits and pieces it comes with and it looks amazing too! Sky would always refuse to get into the car prior to getting the Apawlo Pets set cover, and now she jumps right in! Highly recommend!
Packed and ready to go with our new high quality car seat cover from https://www.instagram.com/apawlopets/
Loving our new car seat cover.
Tilly loves her new car seat cover! She doesn't slip or slide at all anymore when she's on a drive. My dad is very happy with it as well, fits his landcruiser well and he's happy to have a decent cover protecting the seats. Great quality product, and good to have the options on ways to use it.
MOLLY loves nothing better than going to the beach, chasing sticks into the water, then launching herself into the sand for a roll to dry off. WE love the fact that we no longer have a car literally full of sand - thanks to our new Apawlopets seat cover. It's adaptability is fantastic and it also looks smart. A big thumbs up from the 3 of us!
I love the netting in the middle so when they are lying down they can still see you! 😍
When you have an adventure cat who doesn’t like being confined to her carrier on car trips, this seat cover (with a pet seat added to contain the litter tray) provides the perfect amount of freedom. The high quality of the material gives me confidence she won’t destroy my leather seat now with those sharp kitty claws. 😻
Doug & Audrey love their car seat hammock (and so do my car seats!)
We have been loving our @apawlopets car hammock! We can see how much dirt, sand and hair this catches and protects our seats!
Loving my new @apawlopets 4-in-1 dog car seat cover!!
Loved it! Our dog loves the 4 in 1 car seat and we feel very thankful as to how secure she feels.
Mango and I are pretty chuffed with our new @apawlopets car cover 😁
9 hour drive to Melbourne was no problem with this guy and thanks to @apawlopets Can't wait for the next trip
So heavy duty! Stoked!!!❤️
She loves it, so easy to set up and use
Highly rate this thank you so much!! It fits my new Mazda 4x4 a treat, and the pooches (Stark the Aus Shep x Collie and Koda the Kelp x Cattle) absolutely love it also
