Customers have great things to say about the Pet Net Brand Safety Car Barrier. Check out their reviews below:

“Ready for the Road” from Jill B. in New York
The perfect product for us and for our new VW Sportwagon. Our dog is able to see through the net and doesn’t feel the need to crawl over. Since we leave it in place, other passengers appreciate the open feel and don’t feel like they’re in the doghouse!

“Traveling Safer…Love the Pet Net!,” from Jaline in Massachusettes
I love, love, love Pet Net! I have an Expedition EL and it is plenty big enough. I have it directly behind the driver/passenger seats, hooked around the handles in the 2nd row. I keep it a bit low so I don’t see it in the mirror, but it’s still enough to keep my two black labs from coming into the front seat. I like that when I need to remove it to accommodate human passengers it’s easy to remove and store! It’s nice not to have a bulky metal gate to deal with….and if I do have to brake quickly, my dogs don’t slam into a metal frame. Also, the Net was shipped and arrived quickly. The Net comes in a mesh bag and all bungees are included. Highly recommended!!!

The Pet Net Brand Safety Car Barrier comes in a standard size which works great in cars and the large size Pet Net Brand Safety Car Barrier which works in both cars and SUVs.

The Pet Net car barrier has become one of our most popular items.  We have received more testimonials on this product than on any other product.  Check out what these people have to say about the Pet Net car barrier:

“I love this product!” from Michelle in Seattle
I love this product! It’s easy to hook up and unhook if you don’t want it up, unlike all the other pet barriers. There are no bars or fussy gadgets, just loop and hook to wherever! It’s flexible for any car, truck, SUV, and any pet large or small because you can hook it as high or low to anything….I’m at peace now when I leave my 2 big dogs in the car (I have a Ford Explorer) No hair on the seats, it’s lovely in everyway. I also received it 4 days earlier than my “expected time of delivery”!!! When does that ever happen?!? The best thing about this company is the care & detail of my shipment & order from the owner herself. Quick, responsive, and the very best customer service I HAVE EVER HAD! I highly recommend this product AND company

“The VERY BEST Vehicle Pet Barrier EVER!” from Linda in Kansas
Look no further. This net is durable, easy, inexpensive, easy to hook anywhere and very easy to remove, you just unhook! There are no fussy bars that move, bend, break, or are a hassle to remove out of the car.  Easier than moving a kennel in and out. I can’t say enough about this product. But the most wonderful part of The Pet Net is the best customer service! In a day and age where great customer service is on the decline, the owner included a thank you, and a personal business card with my receipt and order. It came 4 days before I was expecting it too! I have the larger net for my dogs but it also comes in a smaller size. THE BEST! THANK YOU!

From Mary Beth in VA
Just wanted to let you know how much we and our dogs LOVE the Pet Net!  It was a great success on our recent road trip.  It was so easy to install, and it freed up a lot of room in the back of our minivan, unlike our previous metal pole pet barrier which took up a lot of floor space.   It also allowed for much clearer visibility when driving; the other barriers sometimes produced unsafe blind spots.  I think because the Pet Net is so lightweight and unobtrusive, the dogs didn’t feel as if they were cut off from us, and yet they still respected the Net.  Thanks again for such a great product! Dexter and Lena give your net 4 paws up!!!

There are two sizes of the Pet Net car barrier – Standard and Large.

The pet net for cars is used to keep your dog in the back seat.  Keeping your dog in the back seat means that your dog won’t distract the driver and your dog will not fly forward in the front seats in the event of a car accident.  There are many pet net brands for cars, but two stand out as the best – The Pet Net Brand and Hatchbag Pet Net.  While both provide the same protection for your dog, both differ in size, price, and installation.

Size Comparison of The Pet Net Brand and Hatchbag Pet Net
The Pet Net Brand comes in two sizes – standard for cars and large for SUVs  The Hatchbag Pet Net for cars, however, has five different sizes and are more customized to fit your vehicle.  The Pet Net for cars will block above the seats almost to the ceiling and the center between seats.  It does not block the sides, very top, or very bottom.  If your dog doesn’t try to climb over, under, or on the sides, then this pet net will work perfectly.  However, if you have a more persistent dog, the Hatchbag Pet Net offers more coverage.  The gap on the top, bottom, and sides is much smaller – about an inch or two.

Price Comparison of The Pet Net Brand and Hatchbag Pet Net
The Pet Net for cars is currently priced at $29.99 for the standard and $39.99 for the large.  The Hatchbag Pet Net is currently priced at $74.99 for all five sizes.  Why the price difference?  That is something you would need to ask the manufacturers.  Both pet net brands are made of strong and durable material and are safe to use.  Other than sizing and installation differences, we see no differences in the quality.

Installation Comparison of The Pet Net Brand and Hatchbag Pet Net
The Pet Net for cars has a bungee attachment system which is super easy to use.  It also makes it easy to remove and place back in without any hassle.  The Hatchbag Pet Net for cars uses a dual lock fastener system.  This system uses barrel locks and non-permanent adhesive backing which you stick onto the interior molding of your car.  The adhesives are super strong and can only be removed with adhesive remover.  The adhesives and adhesive remover will not damage the interior of your car.  While the adhesives stay, the Hatchbag Pet Net barrel locks allow for easy placement and removal of the pet net.  Sounds complicated but it is easy to use than it is to describe.

Protect your dog with a pet net for cars.  Whether you choose The Pet Net Brand or Hatchbag Pet Net, you can be assured that your dog is safe.  If you get into a car accident, your dog will not fly forward and hit the front passengers, or fly forward and out the front windshield.  The pet net for cars is not the ultimate safety method but it is a good alternative for dogs who won’t wear their dog seat belt or won’t tolerate being confined in a pet travel crate.

We here at Pet Auto Safety.com have found the most fantastic pet net for cars – The Pet Net.  In the past, we have sold the Hatchbag pet net for cars and SUVs.  While this product is great, the new pet net for cars is even better.  Not only does The Pet Net have the same high quality as the Hatchbag pet net for cars, but it is also easier to use and less expensive.  And now, no more confusing sizes to deal with!

The Pet Net comes in only two sizes – Standard and Large.  The Pet Net standard size will fit most cars and small trucks while the large is better for large trucks, SUVs, and minivans.  The Pet Net for cars attach with an easy-to-use bungee system as pictured below.

This pet net for cars also has some great testimonials.  Although it is safer for your dog to wear a dog seat belt or be crated, some dogs simply won’t tolerate it.  One person says, “I tried the car harness for my golden retriever and she was just miserable! I’m so happy I found The Pet Net. I love that I can get it on and off in a snap and that it’s so easy to store.”

Another person who had trouble with the metal barriers says, “I wanted something to keep my lab in the backseat after he nearly caused me to run off the road. I really didn’t want a metal barrier because I’ve heard they rattle. The Pet Net was so easy to install in my Explorer I couldn’t believe it, and no rattling!”

The Hatchbag Pet Car Net at Pet Auto Safety.com comes in five sizes. That can be rather daunting for someone shopping for a pet car net for their vehicle. It takes time to measure your vehicle and compare it to the sizes on the website. Then there is the question of where to measure.

Well, we have good news. Pet Auto Safety.com has an application guide which we can use to determine which size of pet car net your vehicle needs. Since all sizes are the same price, you do not need to worry about choosing the wrong size. Simply order the size you think you need, then indicate your vehicle year, make, and model during checkout. We will compare your vehicle with our application guide, and exchange for proper sized pet car net as needed. If you don’t want us to exchange the size of pet car net you selected, simply type “generic” in the place which asks for your vehicle information.

This is a feature available only at Pet Auto Safety.com.

Does your dog try to get into the front seat while you are driving? Or do they try to lay their head on your shoulder and sniff or lick your ear? This can be dangerously distracting. A high quality alternative to getting a wire mesh car barrier is to get a pet net instead. The Pet Net from Hatchbag ® is made of strong flexible nylon-mesh netting. It uses a dual lock reclosable fastner rather than the hook and loop system. The dual lock system is five times stronger and therefore, better at keeping your dog from getting around it. The pet net is easy to install and easy to remove for when you don’t need it.
