"Our dog was usually very restless during car rides. In the Carlo, he lies down and seems much more relaxed."
6 reasons why I would never go without a proper car seat again.
When I picked up Louis at 8 weeks old, I was really nervous about the first car ride. What happened next changed how I've viewed dog car seats ever since.
Experience shows that Carlo sells out quickly.
Six things I would never go without again
What a proper car seat for your dog needs to offer — in six points.
A loose dog in the car is a risk — for everyone in the vehicle.
In the event of a collision, an unsecured dog is subjected to enormous forces that far exceed its own body weight. Carlo has an integrated seat belt adapter that keeps your dog in place — instead of letting it fly freely through the car.
What you save with Carlo instead of buying new regularly.
We tested it ourselves: an inexpensive "orthopedic" bed often lasts only a few months with intensive use. If replaced every 6 months, it costs CHF 447 over 5 years. Carlo costs a one-time fee of CHF 239.
¹ Comparison price: Standard dog car seat, market example, as of August 2026. Replacement cycle of every 6 months assumed; no PET & Co. test experience with this specific product.
Why "affordable" rarely means orthopedic when it comes to car seats.
Standard car seats generally do not have genuine orthopedic filling material — only soft padding. This is sufficient for short trips, but does not provide targeted joint relief like the memory foam core of Carlo. You can find the complete overview below.
"Elevates both the pet's wellbeing and the home's aesthetic."
Car seat in the car. Dog bed at home.
Carlo can be opened at the front and used as a normal dog bed — practical for puppies that don't need a crate yet, and for anyone who doesn't want to buy two separate products.

Protect the car instead of ruining it.
Instead of pet hair and scratches on the seats, Carlo handles the contact with the vehicle. Machine washable at 30°C — a seat that stays clean even after many trips.
Orthopedically padded, not just a loose cushion on the backseat.
The core consists of 100% orthopedic memory foam flakes — cushioned edges provide support and security, instead of your dog sliding around at every turn.
