I really like this harness; it gives me peace of mind knowing that my dog is safe in the back seat. She has accepted it okay (she prefers freedom/no clunky harness), and I presume that will improve wi... See more

The SleepyPod is not quite large enough for our 15 lb. kitty. She squeezes in but the tightness makes her paranoid.

SAFETY HARNESS
Seatbelt harness shipped and arrived very quickly. Its easy to get on and off my dog via the two clips on the back. The instructions were very precise and easy to follow. The adjustment of the straps is the most difficult part as it does take some thinking on how to maneuver them but once you have them set you really don't need to mess with them. It keeps my dog in place throughout the ride which keeps him and us safe. Hoping I never have to find out how well it does in a crash but glad to have the piece of mind that its been tested and passed.

My first order was lost somewhere in the processing. I called Sleepypod and they expedited a new order and shipment at no additional cost to me and I received it within just a couple of days. It's a great product and the customer service was first rate!

Exceptional quality and customer service
Very impressed by this company. We ordered car safety harnesses. They arrived quickly and are very well made.
The safest harness!
Excellent product and company. The safest harness so I know my dogs are safe in my car. It is comfortable, my dog can sit and lie in the harness. Everything went well with the order. Fast delivery even abroad. Helpful and friendly customer service.
Good quality but not easy to put on
The harness definitely looks high quality however we have found it really difficult to figure out. It seems like the straps are twisted. We have to fold the straps over to put them on, it’s odd.

Great experience all around
Clear information on website, ordering was easy and delivery quick. The harness is outstanding, easy to use once it's sized for the dog, and clearly very well made. I feel much better knowing my dog is protected if there's an accident

Quality product and experience
Quality product and experience. Ordering was easy with informative videos and good selections. Thru my own fault I had to return and reorder, which was easy and no problem. My picky kittens quickly and comfortably adapted to their Sleepypods which makes transport and travel stress-free with the comfort and security of their familiar safe space.

You were very understanding when neither of the harnesses I tried fit my dog. Thank you!
Veterinarian approved
I am a feline-only veterinarian and I love the Sleepypod for cats! I have two for my kitties. They sleep in the pod daily and when it's time to come to the clinic with me I just put the top on and out we go. As a veterinarian, I love performing the cat's examinations in the carrier. It provides them with a sense of comfort during a stressful time. 10/10 would recommend!
I bought the original
I bought the original, round Sleepypod carrying case/car seat/ bed in the color first blush for my 10lb Chihuahua/Poodle. He’s a 7 year old rescue and I worried he wouldn’t adapt to the car seat, but he did! I placed the bottom (bed part) in my living room for a week, then added the cover the second week, then finally took him on a car ride. He was restless at first, but settled in after about 10 minutes on the road. Overall, I think the Sleepypod is a great product! I love the pink/blush color (even though I have a male dog) and I love that it’s a crash-tested product. I bought this the week after my dog and I were involved in a fender bender. He was crated during the crash and was fine, but I wanted something safer and more secure. My only issues with the Sleepypod are that it’s fairly heavy to carry with my 10lb dog and the round shape makes it even more difficult. Plus, the strap can only be shortened so much because of the shoulder padding. It’s also difficult to leave the top part with the mesh open for my dog to crawl in and out of or for me to take him in and out of the carrier. The instructions say to push the sides down, but the thick velcro strap on top is in the way and the sides slowly creep back up and close the carrier. Despite those minor issues, my dog and I are enjoying this product. It’s much safer, cuter, and compact than the dog crate he used to travel in.
