Shipping & returns
Tracked delivery anywhere in the United States. Free on orders of $50 or more; below that the only method offered is Express Delivery at $22, which is also available above the threshold as a paid upgrade. Allow 5 to 7 days, after a 24 to 48 hour handling time.
We give you 15 days from delivery to return an unused item. That is our own policy rather than a United States statutory right, because federal law gives no cooling-off period for an online purchase. Send it back unused and in resaleable condition and we refund what you paid for it, less a $29 per order handling charge; on a change of mind you also cover the return postage and the original delivery charge is not refunded. If the item arrives faulty, damaged or not as described, none of that applies: tell us and we put it right at our cost.
Your rights under federal and state consumer protection law are unaffected. That is a statutory right and nothing on this page limits it.
Looking after it
Shake the hair off outside before it goes in the machine, wash cool and hang it to dry. Heat is what kills a waterproof coating, so no tumble dryer and no radiator.
About this product
The back seat comes out of this the way it went in.
A waterproof Oxford hammock, 54 inches wide by 58 inches long, with full side flaps, a mesh window and seat anchors. It covers the bench, the doors and the gap the dog falls into.
A dog on a bare back seat leaves hair in the weave, claw marks in the bolsters and, sooner or later, something worse.
This cover is quilted waterproof Oxford fabric across the whole bench, 54 inches wide by 58 inches long, with side flaps that carry on down over the door cards.
The front panel converts it to a hammock, which closes the gap between the seat and the front seatbacks so a braking dog has nowhere to slide.
A mesh window in the hammock panel lets you see the dog in the mirror instead of guessing, and it keeps air moving to the back.
It fits with seat anchors into the seat crease and straps around the headrests, and it comes off for a wash without unthreading a seatbelt.
Most seat covers protect the flat part of the bench and leave the two places that actually take the damage: the door cards the dog climbs over, and the gap between the seat and the front seatbacks where a wet dog ends up on the first hard stop.
This one covers both. Full-size side flaps drop over the door cards, and the hammock panel spans the gap, so the dog stays on the bench and the footwell stays empty.
The fabric is quilted waterproof Oxford, which is the practical part: the point of waterproof here is not rain, it is that urine, mud and a wet coat stay on top of the cover instead of soaking into the foam underneath.
A see-through mesh window sits in the hammock panel. It is there so you can check on the dog in the mirror while you drive, and so that air from the front of the car still reaches the back seat.
It fits with anchors that push into the crease of the seat and straps that go round the headrests, so it can be taken off and put back without unthreading a seatbelt. Use it flat for a passenger, hammock for the dog.
Still deciding?
Not sure yet? That is fine.
You can change your mind. We give you 15 days from delivery on any unused item. That is our own policy rather than a United States statutory right, because federal law gives no cooling-off period for an online purchase, and we would rather say so than imply a right you do not have. Send it back unused and in resaleable condition and we refund what you paid for it, less the $29 per order handling charge; on a change of mind you also cover the return postage.
If it turns up faulty, damaged or not as described, that is on us. Your rights under federal and state consumer protection law are unaffected. Read the detail on our refunds and returns page, or ask us anything before you order.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size is it?
54 inches wide by 58 inches long, which suits a standard back bench in a car or SUV. Measure your own bench across the widest point if your vehicle is unusual.
Is it actually waterproof or just water resistant?
The Oxford fabric is waterproof, which is what keeps urine and a wet coat on top of the cover rather than in the seat foam underneath.
What is the hammock part for?
It spans the gap between the back seat and the front seatbacks. That is where a dog slides on a hard stop, and closing it keeps the dog on the seat and the footwell clean.
Can I use it flat instead?
Yes. Unclip the hammock panel and it is an ordinary bench cover, so a person can sit there.
How does it attach?
Anchors push into the crease where the back and base of the seat meet, and straps go around the headrests. No adhesive and nothing permanent.
Will it slide around?
The backing is anti-skid and the anchors hold it in the seat crease. A cover that still moves usually has one anchor not pushed fully home.
What is the mesh window for?
Seeing the dog in your mirror, and letting air from the front of the car reach the back seat.
Does it cover the doors?
Yes, that is what the full-size side flaps are for. The door cards take as much damage as the seat and most covers leave them bare.
Can I still use the seatbelts?
The cover is designed to fit around the belt stalks. If you carry a passenger back there, run the belt outside the cover.
Is it machine washable?
Yes, cool wash and hang it up to dry. Do not tumble dry it: heat is what ruins a waterproof coating.
Will dog hair come off it?
Most of it shakes off outside, and the rest comes off with a rubber glove or a lint brush before it goes in the machine.
Does it fit a bench with a fold-down armrest?
It goes over the bench as one piece, so the armrest is under the cover and not usable while it is fitted.
Will it fit a pickup back seat?
If the bench is within 54 inches across, yes. Measure it, because pickup benches vary more than car benches do.
Can two dogs use it?
Yes. It is a bench cover, so it is as wide as the bench.
Does it stop the dog getting into the front?
It makes it much harder, because the hammock closes the footwell route. It is not a barrier: for that you want the dog car barrier.
Is it padded?
It is quilted, which gives some cushioning over the seat, but it is a cover rather than a bed.
Will it smell of plastic when it arrives?
New coated fabric can. Air it outside for a day and it goes.
Can I use it in the boot instead?
It is cut for a bench seat, so it will not sit properly in a boot. It is the wrong shape for that job.
Is it safe for a dog to travel on?
It protects the car, not the dog. Use a harness clipped to a belt anchor, or a crate, for the dog's own safety.
What colour is it?
Black.
How do I get it flat again after washing?
Hang it over a line by the hammock panel rather than folding it wet, and the quilting settles out on its own.
Will it work in a two-door car?
Yes, though fitting the anchors is more awkward through a single door opening.
How much is delivery?
Delivery is free across the USA on orders of $50 or more. Below $50 the only rate the checkout offers is Express Shipping at $22, so on a single $29 item the postage is $22.
How long will my order take?
5 to 7 days for delivery, after a 24 to 48 hour handling and processing time while the order is picked and packed. The handling time is not part of the 5 to 7 days.
Do you ship outside the United States?
The checkout accepts international addresses and offers the same two rates, and we have shipped abroad before. Delivery times outside the USA are not something we can promise, so email us before ordering from outside the country and we will tell you what we can.
Will I get a tracking number?
Yes. You will receive a confirmation email with a tracking number as soon as the order ships. Tracking codes exist only once the parcel is with the carrier, so there is nothing to send in the first 24 to 48 hours.
Where do I enter my tracking code?
On the Track Your Parcel page. Paste the code from your shipping email into the box and press Track.
Can items in one order arrive separately?
Yes. For logistical reasons items in the same purchase may be sent in separate packages, so a partial delivery is not a lost parcel.
Which payment methods do you accept?
Credit and debit cards, PayPal and cryptocurrency. Card payments are handled by Stripe and card details never reach this website.
What currency are the prices in?
United States dollars. Every price on this site is USD and that is the currency your card is charged in.
