We hope you love our recommendations! Some may have been sent as samples, but all were independently selected by our editors. Just FYI, BuzzFeed and its publishing partners may collect a share of sales and/or other compensation from the links on this page.
1. A grooming brush so your shedding doggo or kitty can have a shiny, tangle-free coat: it helps (gently!) pull out and catch a ton of loose hairs before they fall out. Your pet gets to enjoy a little pampering and you to keep the couch clean. It's a win-win situation. 🐶 🐈
Promising review: "This tool is great, our dog sheds a lot and have tried many of the tools that they sell at the local pet stores, but none work as good as this one. Our dog doesn't mind it and the hair that is removed stays on the tool so you can pull it off in a bunch rather than it flying everywhere as your deshedding. Worth the money." —JZamora
Get it from Amazon for $14.97.
2. And a pet hair remover to pick up all the fur hiding around your home. It'll quickly remove fuzzy hair embedded in carpets, yoga mats, and couch cushions — just lightly sweep the stone over each surface — and turn it into a fluffy pile that could be mistaken for one of Paris Hilton's small dogs.
Promising review: "Holy cow this is magic. I have a 230-pound mastiff. I have purchased any and everything claiming to get dog hair off car carpet. I have used at least three different vacuums and attachments. Lately I have been using a microfiber towel because it had some grip. Then this piece of magic arrived. It gets every single hair no matter how embedded. There were hairs I had a hard time removing with my fingers. The Fur-Zoff pulled them right out. This has cut my hair removal time in half! Thank you for this savior of a tool." —David R.
Get it from Amazon for $10.99.
3. Or a squeegee broom that'll remove pet fur *and* human hair from large indoor surfaces. Its rubber bottom picks up debris trapped in your carpets, rugs, and hardwood floors. Just look at the results below and you'll probably ditch your vacuum for good.
BuzzFeed editor Emma Lord owns this squeegee broom and said: "An embarrassing confession: I do not have a pet, but I shed like nobody's business. My hair gets so ingrained in the carpet that a vacuum truly does nothing for it, so I often was just unrooting clumps of hair from the floor with my hands (sorry for the visual). I bought this broom and it immediately started pulling it up GOBS of hair [Ed. note: see her pic above left!]. My carpet like, genuinely changed color (turns out the pink was supposed to be much pinker, whoops). Anyway, do with that semi-horrifying information what you will — you can read my full review of the pet hair broom for more deets."
Promising review: This broom is amazing!! We bought it last year after adopting a second dog. So we have two cats and two dogs shedding their fur all over our home, rugs, stairs, and carpets. This thing took up ALL this fur from ONE rug (pictured above right!) Mind blown. Best $10 purchase I have ever made! It works great on our furniture too." —Alyson Schozer
Get it from Amazon for $12.98.
4. Leak-proof poop bags because no one wants to take their dog out for a walk and have to scoop up a smelly mess. With an absorbent material and an odor-blocking scent, you'll be prepared the next time your pet needs to make a bathroom stop.
Promising review: "I recently came home with my new guide dog. These bags are exactly like the ones we used in training in size, thickness and ease of dispensing. I have a portable poop bag dispenser I hook to the belt of my dog's treat pouch, and one roll of these bags fits it just perfectly. When I run out of these, I will absolutely be purchasing more. They're thick enough to provide a good, sturdy barrier between my hand and the waste (I never feel like my finger's going to poke right through), they're easy to tie off and while mine aren't scented, they do a good job of blocking enough of the odor to make carrying said waste to the dumpster and breathing at the same time no hardship at all. And there are a lot of rolls in the package! Outstanding value." —Sirena
Get a set of 270 bags from Amazon for $13.29 (available in lavender-scented and unscented).
5. An automatic pet feeder that'll help get your furry friends on a regular meal schedule. You can set it to dispense different food amounts (1/8 cup to 4 cups per meal) throughout the day, and there's a slow feed option that'll gradually dispense dry kibble if needed! You won't have to deal with a hungry pet waking you up really early or getting interrupted during a WFH meeting because you accidentally forgot to refill their bowl.
This automatic feeder can dispense up to 12 meals daily and holds up to 24 cups of kibble at a time. It's also easy to clean: the BPA-free plastic feeder parts and stainless-steel round bowl are top-rack dishwasher safe.
Promising reviews: "We purchased this feeder for our rescued cat Simon, who is an overeater. When found, he was close to starvation and has never adjusted to a normal eating pattern. We found programming the feeder a bit difficult and called the 800 number for help. They were extremely patient, and took us step by step through the process. We have had this for a month, and it is a godsend! Simon often naps on a chair next to his feeder. He knows the sound of his kibble landing in the metal bowl, and makes a mad dash for his meal if he is somewhere else in the house. He receives seven small meals a day between 5 a.m. and 11 p.m. He is less frantic about food now, and we are freed up from feeding multiple times a day." —BMoney
Get it from Amazon for $89.95 (originally $119.99).
6. An allergy immune supplement for your doggo's seasonal allergies and skin sensitivities. Each soft chew contains probiotics and vitamins that can help improve digestion, immune function, and minimize hot spots caused by frequent scratching.
Promising review: "This stuff is INCREDIBLE. A pure miracle. My pit has been suffering with allergies her entire life. She can’t even lay on the grass for five minutes without a rash starting. I read about supplements for dogs and came across this one because of the 5-star reviews, I thought I might be disappointed because nothing else has ever worked. But I was wrong. The pictures I’ve posted are only three days apart. In only three days, rashes, bumps, pus, and bloody open skin is completely GONE. YOU HAVE TO TRY THIS FOR YOUR PET." —Ashley
Get it from Amazon for $26.97.
7. A purring cat toy that'll help calm your stressed out kitty. This soft companion has a built-in purring sound that replicates a real feline's purring, so they can cuddle up next to it and relax. Whenever they squeeze the toy, they'll hear soothing noise for up to two minutes, plus it'll be so cute to see them nap with it!
Promising review: "My 3-year-old male rescue kitty has gone through a lot of change and anxiety in his short life (which began as an abandoned kitten on the streets). I saw this online when searching for my fur babies’ Christmas gifts this year and thought 'Why not give it a shot?' Let me tell you just HOW MUCH he loves his new cuddle buddy! He sleeps with it for EVERY nap and evening slumber now, and even pets 'him/her' like it’s his own baby! I watch him fluff, gently stroke, and pull his new stuffie close to his chest before drifting off to sleep...and (not to be cheesy), it warms my heart to see how much it comforts him and how much he loves/cares for it. Sooo recommended for cats of all ages." —Jennifer
Get it from Amazon for $10.95.
8. A silicone lick mat to make baths way easier for your dog that isn't a fan of being wet. Add some peanut butter on it and they'll enjoy eating a yummy treat and staying distracted while you get them squeaky clean in the tub.
Promising review: "Our Labradoodle needs a distraction during bath time and haircut/nail trim. We previously bought a different lick mat that we liked, but the suction cup didn’t work because it was too shallow. This mat has four deep suction cups on the corners with little tabs for easy lift off when you’re done! It stays up on the shower wall and keeps our pup entertained for his bath. The grooves are quite deep and have no variety, so it’s easy to clean, but if you’re looking for something a little different, just know that this isn’t that." —Cate
Get it from Chewy for $10.95+ (available in two styles).
9. A urine stain remover that'll get to work on your pet's impromptu pee accidents: It not only helps eliminate nasty stains, but it also removes unpleasant odors from surfaces, thanks to an enzyme-activated formula. Your carpets and rugs will thank you for the scent pick-me-up.
It can also clean other surfaces, including upholstery, hardwood, tile, litter boxes, and artificial grass!
Promising review: "My little bundle of joy (I say that with extreme sarcasm), decided to use my sofa as her personal pee pad twice last week. I tried and tried to get the odor of urine out to no avail. But then I read the review of this spray and decided to give it a try. I followed the directions and it worked. It actually works. The smell and the stain are gone! Now, I can keep my sofa (and my dog too I guess😊). —AJ
Get it from Amazon for $19.97.
10. A bone teething ring to help alleviate pain and sore spots in your dog's mouth. Each of these rings contains calcium and omega-3 fatty acids (yay for healthy teeth). Plus, wouldn't it be nice to save your shoes, pillows, and basically everything else at home from your puppy's chewing habit?
Promising review: "My pup loves these! She’s been teething really bad lately and has been chewing on everything and everyone! They are bigger than I thought, but I don’t mind because she can entertain herself longer and I’ve noticed she’s been chewing on my stuff less." —Sydney
Get a pack of three from Amazon for $4.74.
11. A self-cleaning litter box so you won't have to scoop out poop or refill your kitty's throne for a couple of weeks. It comes with odor-control crystal litter, an automatic waste removal feature, and anti-leak disposable trays for easy, mess-free tidying.
It also comes with a health counter, so you can see how many times your cat goes in and out of the box per day!
Promising review: "Our sweet kittens were rescued from a car's engine in a parking lot when they were between 4 and 5 weeks old. I took them straight to the vet that day because I could tell they were unwell. They were malnourished and had some infection and parasites. They gained their health back quickly and have been the best addition to our family. We are in the middle of adding a human addition to our family, as well, which makes the litter box chore something my husband is responsible for. This automatic litter box has helped with the chore so much! It is easy to use and leaves little to no smell. Our kittens have taken to it well. " —A. T.
Get it from Amazon for $261.95+ (available in three styles and two colors).
12. And a honeycomb layer mat to trap any leftover litter from your feline's poop and pee sessions. When your cat steps out of the litter box, it'll effectively collect litter and prevent them from leaving a messy trail around your home.
It's also easy to clean! You can open it up and dump leftover litter back in the box, wash it under a sink, or suck up any leftover litter with a vacuum!
BuzzFeed editor Chelsea Stuart owns one of these and said: "My cats used to track litter alllllll over the house and no matter how often I swept, it was always there. In the living room, in my bedroom, even up on the couch. 🤮 That stopped as soon as I got this mat. Now, my cats step out of their litter box, wipe their feet on this, and voila! Clean toe beans! Plus, once it fills up, it's super easy to empty as it's designed like an envelope with one open end."
Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in two sizes and colors).
13. A small doorbell that'll help your canine with bathroom training. Just loop it around a doorknob so your pet can ~give a ring~ when it's time to go potty and not have an accident indoors.
Promising review: "I use these to train my dogs to let me know when they need to go out. It's pretty simple to teach them. The bells jingle when you open the door so they begin to recognize the sound. To secure the idea, I jingle them when saying 'potty' so they associate that. All in all, these bells work great." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $6.99+ (available in three colors and a two-pack).
14. An adjustable harness for your fluffy bun's outdoor adventures. Reviewers swear by it for their rabbits because it has a comfy padded material and comes with an elastic leash that'll keep your pet secure while you're out and about. Plus, your bunny can hop around without it feeling too tight!
Promising reviews: "I bought these for my Holland Lops, they are 2 and 3 pounds now, but when I first tried them, they weighed about 1.5 and 2.5 pounds respectively. They do just fine in them, as long as they are adjusted correctly, they have so much fur, I made the mistake of putting them on too loosely at first, but now I adjust them more snugly — especially around the waist — and they work well. I like the extra security of the clip around the neck, and the stretchy lead is fantastic. Lots of fun for me and my buns! :)" —Amazon Customer
"I bought this harness for my bunny Cleo, and he loved it, it was comfy enough for him that I did not hurt him, it was secure and snug enough that he did not slip away, and the stretch of the leash was enough that he had plenty of movement when we took him outside for walks. I was worried that he would chew on the leash and rip it but when he did, it did not rip! This is top quality and I'm so glad I found it!" —Jessica
Get it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in four sizes and seven colors).
15. A self-grooming cat toy so ~purrfect~ for collecting and removing feline hair: Your kitty can brush up against this gadget, which easily mounts to a wall and helps minimize fur clumps.
There's also space in the brush compartment for cat nip, in case your feline enjoys it!
Promising review: "My cat loves this thing, though he tends to chew on it. But then again, he's kinda weird LOL so buy it! The catnip goes in slots on the sides, which draws the cat to rub across it. Collects unwanted loose hairs as well. I'll be buying one for my mother." —Stacie Parsons
Get it from Amazon for $5.50.
16. A waterproof pet blanket that'll be soft armor for your sofa and protect it from drool, pee stains, and pet fur. It'll also be a cuddly wrap for you and your fur baby while you're relaxing in the living room together.
Promising review: "I bought this for my old girl that was having 'dribble' problems as she ages. We keep it on the couch where she usually plants herself. It's so soft she automatically goes to sleep on it anyway. Easy to wash and keeps my couch clean. But mostly keeps my old girl comfortable a little longer." —Christine Kelly
Get it from Amazon for $18.40+ (available in five sizes and seven colors).
17. A duck-shaped dog toy so great for your canine who loves to play (and basically chew through every "buddy" you give them). This durable cutie doesn't rip apart easily and has a squeaker to keep your doggo entertained.
Psst...you'll get sent a random color, but your dog will definitely love whatever little duck friend they receive!
Former BuzzFeeder AnaMaria Glavan bought this cute toy for her dog and said: "It has not torn, ripped, there is no toy entrail fluff scattered throughout our living room.. nada. It’s still perfectly intact and Rockie generally prefers this toy over any other one in his ever-changing arsenal. It’s also perfect for his medium frame but I can see it being equally as ideal for smaller dogs because it’s lightweight, despite being on the larger side." Read more deets in her full "Duckworth" dog toy review.
Promising review: "My 5-month-old chocolate Lab is very rough with his toys, so of course when we got this toy about three months ago we immediately thought it would last maybe a day. But wow did it shock us! Our dog plays tug-of-war with it, carries it around everywhere, lays with it, and takes it outside with him. His is looking a bit gross from all the play so we will definitely be ordering one or two of them again! DEFINITELY worth the money! So impressed with how well it’s holding up." –Stefan
Get it from Amazon for $5.54 (also available in a smaller size).
18. A nail file board that'll help prevent your doggie's claws from getting too long. Your pup will love using this perfectly-sized scratching board to trim down their nails, so you can finally put those "scary" clippers away when it's time for a little maintenance.
ScratchPad for Dogs is a small business based in Atlanta, Georgia!
Promising review: "Game changer!! I am so grateful for the scratchpad. Trimming my senior rescue dog's nails was a nightmare, even at the vet. After just a few sessions, her nails on her front paws look way better. My dog not only tolerates the scratchpad, but she seems to really enjoy our training sessions. Today, when I pulled the board out of storage, she got so excited! Thank you so much for creating a product that takes the stress out of grooming. For anyone getting started, I bought the double-sided board and found it helpful to train my dog with the smoother side first, and then switch to the coarser side once she got used to it." —lisa templeton
Get it from ScratchPad for Dogs on Etsy for $40.45+ (available in four styles and three grit levels).
19. Or cat nail clippers to gently trim your kitty's claws: Rubberized handles give you a good grip, so you can give them a chill and safe grooming session. If your furry friend's nails are scratching you (and everything indoors), it may be time for a manicure.
Promising review: "I received these clippers this morning and just used them to cut my boy's front and back claws. They worked beautifully and were very easy to hold. Of course, the fact that my cat is Mr. Mellow and cooperative certainly made a difference! We were done in less than five minutes." —Amazon Customer
Get them from Amazon for $10.99 (available in two colors and two patterns).
20. An algae cleaning magnet for the inside of your aquarium that's really dirty. This weighted scrubber is so cool because it extracts algae from your fish's home from the outside of the tank. Yes, that means you don't have to dip your hands in and do any cleaning if there's a lot of build-up in there. 😲
This small tool has two sides: a scrubber side that removes algae inside of the aquarium and another side that magnetically attaches from the outside. It won't float away and the scrubber will fall straight to the bottom of the tank if it's separated from the magnet during the cleaning process.
Each cleaning magnet comes with two pads: one for acrylic aquariums and one for glass aquariums!
Promising review: "This is what your fish tank has always been missing! If you're like me, you hate reaching your arm in the water and scrubbing the glass. It's gross, and by the time I get around to doing it, I've put it off for so long that it's just disgusting. This little magnet though — incredible! I have looked at these for years and finally decided to give it a try. I was shocked by how clean it got the inside of the glass, and how smoothly it moved along. I was even able to get in front of the rocks and slide it across the bottom of the tank. Within no time my tank was crystal clear and my filter sucked up all the debris." —MamaC3511
Get it from Amazon for $7.95+ (available in four sizes).
21. A small device that'll keep track of your doggo's meals, because life gets busy and you really don't want to ask family members if they fed your pet for the thousandth time. It also comes in handy if you're the only one watching your fur baby and need to double-check.
It comes with little slots you can slide for a.m. and p.m. times throughout the week, so you'll always know if you need to refill your dog's food and drink bowls. And, there's one available for cat parents!
Promising review: "Awesome product! There are four of us who were working together to feed the dogs. It simplified everything because I no longer have to text to see if anyone had fed them every morning. Now I just to see if it's green and if not, I feed them and indicate it. We all love it so much!" —Toni Deegan
Get it from Amazon for $11.95.
22. An interactive cat toy because it'll help keep your favorite feline entertained for hours on end and costs less than $5. Wave it around and watch your kitty dance like there's no tomorrow (as shown in these fun reviewer pics below) while they try to "catch" rolled cardboard on the end of the wand.
Promising review: "I always have a cat dancer toy on hand! This helps my kitten/cat get some strenuous exercise when I don't feel like walking endlessly through the house with a 'rope/snake' toy for them to chase. I can hold one end while I'm reading a book or watching movies, and the way the other end bounces and moves always attracts my cat and gets his hunting time in before meals or when he's a bit hyper from inactivity. Although I highly recommend plenty of human/cat interactive play (dragging the snakey/feathery toy around for him to catch), this is a great extra option!" —A. Shiley
Get it from Amazon for $1.73.
23. A snout soother stick for your doggo's chapped nose. This vegan balm contains hempseed oil, grape-seed oil, jojoba oil, and vitamin E that help heal crusty and dry spots. Rub onto their snout two to three times a day for some relief.
Promising review: "I rarely write reviews, but this worked like magic. My German Shepherd had a dry crusty nose on one side that no amount of conventional dog moisturizer could fix. I briefly wiped the tiny balm over his nose and the crust cleared up in two hours, and his nose looks way better. Plus he licked it immediately upon applying and it still worked. Day 3 and his nose has a nice black color and is almost healed. Bit expensive for a small stick but well worth it. Probably good for 10 or 15 applications if used lightly, it's rather more like a Vaseline consistency than a glue stick so it's easy to apply too much at once." —Brandon
Get it from Amazon for $5.95.
24. A cat carrier that's ~purrfect~ for carrying your kitty and grooming them on the go. With an adjustable Velcro collar and Velcro ports, your feline can poke their head out and stay comfy while you take care of pet parent duties. Plus, it'll be less of a hassle to trim their nails or brush them.
This bag can accommodate kitties who weigh 5 to 9 pounds and measure 14 inches or less from the top of their head to the bottom of their tail. It also has a comfy shoulder strap for you, so you don't have to carry them with your hands!
Promising review: "I was skeptical like many others, but this bag is magical, I think! The cats fought over who got to sit/sleep on it straight out of the package, and they don't mind being zipped up in it at all! I used it two days ago to cut their nails — first time I was able to cut them by myself! There are two Velcro slots at the front on each side for their paws to come out. This morning, I used the bag to apply medicine to their ears by myself...super easy! It's made of a heavyweight-type fabric that keeps their feet secure so they don't run away, and protects you from their sharp nails. No, it doesn't protect you from biting, but I don't know of anything reasonable that does. But for normal cats, who just don't like to be 'fiddled' with, this bag is a godsend. I highly recommend it!" —K. Zainea
Get it from Amazon for $35.60+ (available in sizes XS–XL and eight colors).
25. Or a dog sling carrier for your pup who loves going on adventures with you. Instead of dealing with a flimsy leash, place 'em in this cozy cocoon if you're heading out for the day.
Mod Pups is a small biz based in Austin, Texas that designs cute and functional pet carriers!
Promising review: "Love my dog sling! The puppy is comfortable in it and I can take her anywhere. I also use it to get things done in the house. Well made and beautifully designed! Would buy again." —Etsy Customer
Get it from Mod Pups on Etsy for $44+ (available in sizes XXS–XXXL and various prints).
26. A wall-mounted scratching post that'll give your feline a designated spot for their scratching sessions. It's designed for kitties who like to use their claws on vertical surfaces (doors, sofas, and more), and easily attaches to a wall in your home. If your cat loves to use your precious couch or cabinets as a scratching post and damages them, it may be time to try this solution out!
Promising reviews: "The average cat scratching post is a hideous blend of string and beige carpet that sucks the soul from any room in which it is placed. Not this one. This scratching post is sleek, well made and unassuming, blending easily into any room. It arrived well packaged and was easy to install with the hardware provided. Furthermore, it is robustly constructed and stands up to constant use by my cat." —D James
"Less expensive and space consuming than putting scratching trees/towers all through the house. I have about six of these now scattered throughout my house, and my cat uses them all. Save your furniture — get these instead!" —Tamara E Freitas
Get it from Amazon for $39.99.
27. Pee pads because it seems like your puppy is constantly going to the bathroom and you don't want to step in another "carpet puddle" again. Each have a carbon-activated material that absorbs urine and odors fast and a leak-proof layered system to make training a breeze.
Promising review: "I love these pads more than any other 'white' kind I tried. These pads are super absorbent and most importantly they don't look disgusting when dirty. Cleanup is super easy as everything soaked up turns to gel inside. Just wrap it up and toss away. My house doesn't smell like dog urine anymore." —Amazon Customer
Get a 50-pack from Amazon for $20.99+ (also available in larger packs).
28. Or an artificial grass mat if you want to give your pup a bathroom spot that resembles the outdoors. This gem has three layers that absorb pee and it's so easy to clean: just rinse it with soapy water and let it air dry. It's also helpful for times when you can't bring your dog outside.
Promising review: "I was looking for something to help as an indoor restroom for my Maltese, though she is four and is potty-trained it is nice to have this for her to use if need be. Living in an apartment complex we have a neighbor that has an aggressive dog, and this allows our little one to use the bathroom when we can't get her out due to the other dog being outside. The quality is great, looks like real grass, and is super easy to clean and maintain. The size is perfect as well and is not an eye sore at all." —Peggy Hansen
Get it from Amazon for $24.07.
29. A glow-in-the-dark kitten collar so your cat will be visible if they're exploring your home at night. This ~stellar~ accessory, which can be adjusted for your feline's neck, will help keep them safe when there's limited visibility.
Promising review: "My kitten loves her collar. I wanted her to have one that was comfortable and that looked cute on her. Plus I found out afterwards that it glows in the dark. That was even better so I don't trip on her in the middle of the night." —Eileen Castanon
Get a set of two from Amazon for $8.99+ (available four color sets).
30. A slow feeder bowl that'll help prevent your doggo from eating too fast. Small ridges slowly move kibble as your canine eats, so they don't end up with bloating after meals. And, they'll get to improve their foraging skills, thanks to the bowl's zig-zag design.
This slow feeder bowl can hold up to two cups of dried dog food!
Promising review: "I have two rescue dogs who adopted me. My oldest who is now 14 would race through his food as if he was scared someone was going to take it from him. To slow him down, I tried multiple products, various bowls, etc., and nothing worked until this bowl came along. Before food would disappear within seconds of hitting the bottom of the bowl. It now takes him 20+ minutes to eat all of his kibble or prepared meals that he is served. To make things even for both dogs I purchased a second bowl that was different for my youngest who was not having any issues with devouring his food; he took it as a challenge and now they know which bowl belongs to them. Even if I try to switch it up, they won't have it. To the person who came up with this, brilliant idea." —Zach
Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in four sizes and 12 styles).
31. A cat dental kit for your feline's pearly whites that are in need of a deep clean: A toothpaste helps minimize tartar, a toothbrush gently removes chewed-up food, and the finger toothbrush gives your kitten a gum massage. This will help make dental hygiene for your baby a little more seamless.
Promising review: "Brushing my cat's teeth has always been a battle. I switched him over to this toothpaste a couple months ago. It's definitely made a difference in the whole experience. He's still not a fan of the actual toothbrush (and don't even try getting near him with the finger brush), but he seems to tolerate and maybe even like the malt flavor. I can actually get through a brushing session now without fur flying all over the place. Obviously every cat will react differently, but my cat rates this one 4 stars (and I rate it 5 for helping to make the process somewhat easier)." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $4.48.
32. A water-resistant pet bed so your dog can snuggle up in a cushioned sleep slot that's equally comfy and accident-proof. The middle cushion can also be taken out if cleaning and hair removal are needed. Plus, you won't have to worry about them peeing on the couch or your bed again!
Promising review: "Not really sure why, but my puppy Scottish terrier took to this bed instantly. He loves it, and it being waterproof helped against a couple of accidents. The middle cushion isn't attached, so you can just pull it out to clean it. If it has any flaws is that when plays with his toys in it, it tends to make a lot of noise, like an adult rolling around in a beanbag. Otherwise, it was a great purchase." —J. Tabales
Get it from Amazon for $44.06 (available three sizes).
33. A kitty harness you'll want to slip on your cat if you're both headed outdoors: It'll keep them secure without restricting their movement, so they can enjoy a nice walk and stay safe, whether they're on a sidewalk or nature trail.
Surfer Cat Mav is a small business based in California that sells comfy cat harnesses and training bags!
Promising review: "Works perfectly, my cat has had no problems with it. And it came with instructions for how to train your cat to walk outside with you. So so helpful." —Etsy Customer
Get it from Surfer Cat Mav on Etsy for $24.99+ (available in 10 colors, also available in a set with a leash for $64.99).
34. A pH-balanced shampoo and conditioner to get your puppy super clean and condition their fur. With a heavenly scent and gentle formula, their coat will be so dang shiny, soft, and clean. Mud, dander, and debris, be gone!
Promising review: "I bought this for my miniature Schnauzer and Old English Bulldog puppy. It smells fantastic and the dogs smell clean longer than anything else I've tried! My schnauzer has issues with dandruff when we use other shampoos, but this one was perfect! No dandruff and his fur was so soft!" —Jenna B
Get a bottle from Amazon for $10.99+ (available in eight formulas and three sizes).
35. Or a pack of Burt's Bees cat wipes that'll help minimize dander and soothe your cat's irritated skin. Each wipe is pH-balanced and contains oatmeal, a key ingredient that'll keep itching and redness at bay.
Promising review: "My poor cat has been pulling out (and eating) his fluff for years. Brushing him regularly and anti-dandruff shampoo do not work for him. These work! Within two days, the dandruff has subsided, he isn’t pulling out his fluff as much, and he has been scratching less. He is also super soft now! So glad to have found this because he is so much more comfortable now! My other cat has had dry skin ever since we moved and changed climates and this helps her as well! They both are benefiting from this product." —Chrissy Hartley

36. And an odor-eliminating candle because your living space always smells like your pet, even though you've cleaned it a million times. Light one of these up and that gross scent coming from your doggo's favorite couch spot will *poof* disappear.
Each candle is made with 100% soy wax and can burn for up to 60 hours. Feline parents also swear by this product for eliminating odors around the house!
Promising reviews: "These are the best candles for homes with dogs. We have five dogs (yup, five) ranging from a 6-pound Chihuahua to a 95-pound lab. All are rescues and two are seniors. Senior dogs tend to be a little more stinky. These candles are amazing. Even when not lit with the lid off they make the house smell like fresh cut flowers. Light just one and the whole upstairs smells like lilacs. It’s magic. There’s no chemical scent, it really smells like fresh flowers. I’m not a fan of labels on candles, and this one peels off really easily and leaves no sticky residue. You’re left with a beautiful, clean looking, fresh smelling, dog funk eliminating, long and even-burning candle." —Laurel
BuzzFeed editor Elizabeth Lilly also finds this candle helpful and said: "Cleo clocks in hours luxuriating on the couch on the reg. So I light this bad boy to make the joint smell nice and eliminate any dog smells. Sure, regular candles help some. But this candle acts fast and I don't have to keep it lit for long, which is safe/good because I'm terribly forgetful. It comes in so many ~regular~ candle smells like Fresh Citrus and Pumpkin Spice — not just the de rigueur odor-neutralizing Clean Laundry or Fresh Air. And in case you're wondering, Mango Peach smells divine." Read more deets in her full Pet House Candle review.
