Get the hard bottom cover
Dear fellow dog owner,
Old dogs still want to come along. Getting in, staying put and getting comfortable is the hard part. Here's what owners of senior dogs told us. Under each name is the product they reviewed.
This cover is easy to install and great for my older dog. She doesn't slide around and with the hard bottom she can actually spread out.
Helps my older dog stay on the seat.
Awesome for my senior gsd. I don’t have to worry about him anymore!
My 3 dogs love it. More room now I can take all of them with me. Most the time. Charlie a 100 lbs. German Sheppard, Cooter a 75 lbs. lab. Maggie my girl 50 lbs mix that is going through cancer treatment.
The hard bottom is rated to support up to 250 lb, and it bridges the gap so there is nothing to slip into.
| Typical fabric hammock | Team K9 hard bottom | |
|---|---|---|
| Over the footwell | Fabric that can dip into the gap | Stiff panels make a flat floor |
| Panels | Flimsy | Strong, rated to 250 lb |
| Staying put | No seat anchors | Non-slip backing and seat anchors |
| Safety belt | Not included | Free in the box |
We owe you this part too. The hard bottom is firm, and for some older dogs, firm isn't the whole answer. Frank F. said it plainly:
I would recommend getting the cushion top because the hard bottom is a little slippery for an older dog. My opinion only.
Owners who added our plush bed on top of the cover:
My elderly golden was slipping on the flat seat cover. This plush cushion let's her keep her feet or settle in.
I have the hard bottom protector but my senior dog wasn’t loving it. This pad did the trick
My pup actually laid down and got comfortable in the car for the first time in a while.
Real owners' review videos.
since one is an old girl that goes to hydrotherapy every week, they needed a nice comfy place to enjoy the ride!
The hard bottom hammock cover gives him more room and the dog bed is an added bonus for his bad hips.
This feels soft and cozy to support their joints on a long drive .. their comfort is essential for my sanity
That's why the order box has two setups: the cover with the free safety belt, or the cover with the plush bed made for it.
It installs in under a minute with headrest straps and zippers. To clean it, shake it out, wipe it down, hose it off or machine wash it.

Customer videos
Eleven clips filmed by the people who bought it, in the back seats they actually drive.
Why it works
The bench ends, the footwell drops, and a soft hammock sags right where your dog wants to stand. The Team K9® cover rides on a hard bottom, so the whole back seat becomes one steady floor.
Hard bottom: the floor holds flat, even when they stand.
“She doesn’t stumble around in it like the other one when we are driving.” Michael H., verified buyer, on switching from a soft bottom hammock
The short version
What happens when your dog steps off the seat, what the hard bottom does about it, and what a verified buyer said. It plays without sound until you tap.
Big dogs
250 lb
The hard bottom is rated to support up to 250 pounds. Customers ride with Great Danes, Rottweilers, shepherds and whole packs of labs on one flat platform.
“I have a 130 pound Great Dane. Works beautifully” Kelly K., verified buyerGet the hard bottom cover
Cleanup
The waterproof hammock keeps mud, slobber and accidents on the cover and off your seats. Hose it off, wipe it down or put it in the wash.
“Easy to clean up after a dog who loves to walk in mud!” Ken S., verified buyerOrder now
Setup
< 1 min
Clip the straps around the headrests, tuck the seat anchors into the seat crease and zip the side flaps. When you need the seat back, it folds flat.

“We tried the XL but it was a bit too big for my truck. Team K9 exchanged it for the large and it works great. They were great to work with and the exchange was easy.” Pamela K., verified buyer
If your back seat is a bench, almost certainly. Large fits sedans, 4-door coupes, SUVs, crossovers, hatchbacks, minivans, vans, station wagons and Jeeps. Extra-Large is made for extended cab, crew cab and full-size pickups, light to heavy duty. For captain's chairs or bucket seats, the Single Seat Cover is the better match.
The hard bottom is rated to support up to 250 pounds. Customers ride with 100 lb shepherds and Rottweilers, and with packs of smaller dogs side by side.
Clip the straps around the front and rear headrests, tuck the seat anchors into the seat crease, and zip the side flaps. It installs in under a minute.
Hose it off, wipe it down with a cloth, shake it out, or machine wash it, then let it air dry.
Yes. Seat belt openings give you access to the buckles, and the free safety belt clips to your dog's body harness to help limit roaming. Use it with a properly fitted body harness, not a collar.
Most U.S. orders arrive in 3 to 8 business days after processing, and tracking is sent when your gear ships. Shipping is free on this cover.
If your dog rides twice a year on dry pavement, a cheap hammock may be enough. If they ride weekly, shed, get muddy, or you drive a truck or SUV with a real footwell gap, a fabric sling can sag and wear out fast. The hard bottom is made for the dog who rides every week.
Choose the cover if protecting the car is the whole job. Choose Cover + Bed if your dog rides often, naps in the back row, or needs a softer layer on top of the hard bottom.
Yes. It is one flat platform from door to door, rated to support up to 250 pounds in total. Customers ride with two and three dogs side by side. One safety belt is included, so add an extra belt for a second dog.
No. The included belt helps limit roaming when it is clipped to a properly fitted body harness. Do not clip it to a collar. It is not crash-rated and does not replace crash-tested restraint gear.
