10 Best Dog Car Seats UK 2024

This seat has pretty much every feature you could need! Its mesh design lets air circulate which is ideal for keeping your dog cool if you're travelling on a hot day, and it has the added benefit of a pocket and a removable waterproof liner to keep it clean. It's also completely foldable into its storage bag, and even usable as a hammock-style dog seat when unzipped. 

It's also waterproof and easy to install and keeps even the most anti-car-journey dogs cuddling up and falling asleep while using it. Dogs and humans alike will both love this practical, comfy and adaptable seat, making for many happy road trips together.

Made from deluxe waterproof fabric, this foldable booster seat is designed to keep your dog safe and comfortable when travelling. It has a removable lining of fleece which will provide extra comfort for your pooch. 

The two side pockets are great for storing extra doggie supplies such as poop bags or a water bottle. Reviews particularly like that the seat height can be adjusted so your dog is able to see out the window in this seat which helps with travel sickness and anxiety. 

This soft and squishy seat has a slight doughnut design to it to encourage your dog to settle quickly, whilst the wear-resistant fabric means that it'll stay looking like new for longer. It's easily moved into different types and sizes of car too, and as it comes with a storage bag it'll remain dirt- and dust-free when not in use. 

Owners who have used this seat give it high praise, saying how secure their dog feels when using it and that the fun star design is attractive so they feel like they don't have to keep it stowed away. To top it off, you can also throw it in the washing machine when needed. 

Given the price of this car seat there's a load of useful features to help keep your dog happy and your car clean. The tough nylon surface is splash-proof so that wet walks need not leave any trace or mud or muck, and the non-slip base will keep the seat firmly in place on those winding country roads.

While this is great value it doesn't come with any means of securing your dog, so you will need to buy a seat belt tether or a strap that clicks into your seat belt keeper to keep your dog safe in the unfortunate event of an accident. 

This dog seat is admittedly not as feature-heavy as others in this listing, but if you've got a snuggle monster of a dog then this seat is a must-have. Its thick cushioning and washable Oxford cloth means that your little hound will be able to snooze happily on long journeys as the miles roll by. 

The shape of the seat is also great for calming anxious travellers, as they can feel safe and curled up, and it also doubles as a stylish pet bed when you reach your destination. This model isn't waterproof though, so if your dog is prone to sickness or accidents it may turn out to be too messy. 

This is a good quality seat that's easy to clean, and the durable anti-scratch fabric with PVC backing means that fur and dirt are kept well off your car's upholstery. It's also handy in the fact that it will fold down to make a car seat cover, and fold flat so you can store it easily when your dog isn't riding along.

On the downside, the seat belt clip may not be ideal for everyone as it means that your dog isn't restrained to the seat. This wouldn't be a problem for some but if your dog likes to wander and explore it may not suit your needs. 

This 2-in-1 dog seat and seat protector means that when your dog isn't riding along, you can zip down the sides and instantly transform it into a seat cover. It's also made with a non-slip backing material and has an anchor to keep it firmly in place.

Whilst this seat is versatile, some reviewers report that it can be fiddly to zip up the corners to turn it back into a dog seat. Nonetheless, it is easily moved and fits well into other cars if you have more than one set of wheels to cater for.  

This seat from Kurgo has an adjustable height position, so you can make sure your pal has the best viewing position while riding shotgun with you. For this reason, it's been praised for its calming effect on normally-anxious four-legged travellers.  

However, some users have mentioned issues with the seat collapsing if their dog leans too much on the front of the seat, and that the strap and clip to hold your dog in place are a bit oversized for the small dogs this seat has been designed for.

Made from durable, tear-resistant fabric, this waterproof bed with its cute paw print design is ideal for smaller dogs who don't hold back when it comes to wet and muddy walks. It also has an inbuilt anchor strap to attach to your pal's collar or harness to keep them firmly put. 

We would recommend sizing up your dog and double-checking the dimensions given by the manufacturer, as its size may only comfortably fit smaller-sized dogs. Still, if your fur-baby is small, this will be ideal. 

This is a good mid-range seat that promises to be durable, scratch-resistant, and waterproof. There's also the added bonus of an anchor strap that you insert into the gap between the cushions on the seat of your car and the seatback, which gives extra security. 

One important thing to note about this dog car seat is that it doesn't come with anything to restrain your dog within the seat, such as a clip or strap. This needs to be kept in mind as it's an added expense and is not something you can do without, as if left loose your dog could come to harm if you're involved in an accident.
