Reviewed’s best pet products of 2026

The perfect blend of cozy (for your dog) and tough (for your wallet), the Orvis RecoveryZone ToughChew Den Dog Bed beat out the competition to take our top spot as the best dog bed. We loved that this bed has a padded bolster that runs around its perimeter, and that the dual-foam construction allows for great airflow and temperature regulation without compromising comfort, support, or even weight distribution. (As our tester writes, “This dog bed is so comfy that we’d love to curl up in it ourselves.”) But what we appreciate most is the way Orvis stands behind its product: If your pup ever manages to chew, tear, rip, or bite through the tough, human-grade upholstery backed by ripstop nylon, the brand will refund your money, no questions asked.

Older dogs—and bigger dogs—need more support to get comfortable, and the Znooz Orthopedic Dog Bed has it in spades. An 11-inch-thick polyurethane mattress (it’s CertiPUR-US certified, which means the foam has been independently verified to be free of formaldehyde, mercury, lead, and more) offers resilient support that won’t compress or pack down, and an ergonomic design that cradles your best friend. We love the palette of sophisticated shades it comes in, too. Plus, it’s water- and scratch-resistant and has a machine-washable, removable cover.

A comfy spot for your pet to curl up and take a snooze doesn’t need to break the bank: The Bedsure ComfyFleece Pet Sofa has the features your furry friend wants at less than half the price of similar models. Like pricier competitors, the ComfyFleece has two foam densities (one egg-crate, one memory foam) for cushioning and weight distribution, as well as a three-sided bolster and a waterproof inner lining. It even has the same removable, machine-washable cover as the competition—but the Bedsure costs less, which means more money for treats.

There’s a reason The Farmer’s Dog keeps landing on our winners list: It’s still the fresh dog food subscription we trust most. The company delivers blended fresh-frozen food that’s designed to meet the nutritional needs of your dog—not just any dog. Our tester fed it to her 6-year-old Boston terrier and her puppy for two weeks each, and both dogs got noticeably more excited at mealtime, loving the blend of meat (beef, poultry, pork, and liver), fresh vegetables like carrots and Brussels sprouts, and fiber-rich additions like sweet potatoes and lentils. Our human testers loved the convenience and great health effects. It’s a win all around.

If your dog turns up their nose at dinner, The Pets Table from Purina might be the fix. Our tester’s picky 9-pound mixed breed took to it right away. We loved that the service offers fresh, air-dried, and mixed plans, so you can find a format your dog will actually eat at a price that works for you. In our testing, costs ranged from about $1 per meal for air-dried to $1.65 per meal for fresh. Our only gripe? The fresh bags don’t reseal.

Feeding your dog a raw diet usually means sourcing, portioning, and worrying about pathogens, but We Feed Raw Frozen Raw Patties take all three off your plate. Each meal plan is personalized to your dog’s age, breed, weight, and activity level, and the pre-portioned patties arrive at your door on a flexible subscription you can skip, delay, or adjust. A PhD animal nutritionist formulates every recipe to meet AAFCO standards for all life stages, and the USDA-sourced meat undergoes high-pressure processing. This cold-water method inactivates Salmonella, E. coli, and Listeria without heat or chemicals. (The brand says it has been recall-free since its founding.) Need a shelf-stable option for travel? We Feed Raw makes freeze-dried raw nuggets, too.

Plenty of dog owners know gut health matters, but few want to add yet another supplement to the daily routine. That’s why Open Farm GoodGut caught our attention: It builds digestive support right into your dog’s everyday meal. Each bag pairs nutrient-dense kibble (made with prebiotics and postbiotics) with freeze-dried raw cubes carrying a 12-strain probiotic blend that Open Farm developed with Lifeway Foods. The brand says that adds up to 2 billion CFUs per pound, or more than three times the closest comparable kibble. We also like that Open Farm’s board-certified veterinary nutritionist formulated the recipes, and that each of the three single-protein options (wild-caught salmon, grass-fed beef, and harvest chicken) uses 100% traceable ingredients.

Most premium kibble tops out somewhere between 25% and 35% protein, so K9 Natural Baked & Coated stands out with 40%. That’s thanks to a meat-first recipe in which the first eight ingredients come from animals, with no rendered meat meals in sight. The light, crispy bites are baked, then finished with savory bone broth, which makes this an easy upgrade for pup parents who love the idea of a high-meat diet but still want the convenience of scooping dry food. Choose from three recipes: Grass-Fed Red (New Zealand beef and lamb), Cage-Free Poultry (chicken and turkey), and Wild Ocean Fish (salmon, herring, cod, and whitefish).

Face it: Brushing your dog’s teeth every day is a battle most of us lose. Oxyfresh Advanced Dental Powder for Cats & Dogs skips the toothbrush entirely. Just sprinkle it over your pet’s food. Beyond fresher breath, the vet-trusted formula is designed to support the whole body, thanks to a prebiotic, probiotic, and postbiotic blend, plus pumpkin for digestion, cranberry for urinary health, and shiitake for immunity, plus green tea extract. We also appreciate what’s not in it: Oxyfresh leaves out kelp, seaweed, algae, and SHMP, common dental-powder ingredients that can upset sensitive stomachs.

Joyride built its name on dog harnesses, but its Joyride Duck Feet treats prove the brand knows what’s going on inside the bowl, too. These chews are about as simple as it gets: one ingredient, sourced from trusted U.S. farms and made in the U.S., with no additives, preservatives, or fillers. Duck feet are naturally rich in glucosamine and chondroitin, and all that chewing helps scrape away plaque and tartar. At under $20 for a bag of 5, they’re a treat you can feel good about, especially since every purchase helps a rescue dog. (If your pup prefers something with more crunch, Joyride’s Duck Neck chews are also worth a look.)

The WOpet automatic dog feeder is our top pick among pet feeders because it just works: a generous 17-cup hopper, the ability to schedule up to six feedings a day, and portion-size control that lets you select anywhere from 1 to 39 portions. The night-vision HD camera that lets you see and talk to your pet at any time is great, too. We also appreciated that it comes with a genuinely useful app (not always the case with the competition), which allows remote scheduling and modifications, and lets you know if and when your pet has been fed—with no distracting, time-wasting extras.

Petlibro’s original Granary feeders were already fan favorites, and the Petlibro Granary 2 takes things a step further by tracking not just when your pet eats, but how much. The app-connected feeder portions food precisely, logs daily intake, and sends alerts when it detects abnormal eating so that you can spot potential health changes early. It’s also one of the more approachable smart feeders at $129.99. If you have more than one pet, the $199.99 Petlibro Granary 2 Vision Duo adds a second chute and bowl with separate tracking for each animal. (Note that the Vision models’ AI cameras are designed to recognize cats so that dog owners will get the most out of the standard Granary 2.)

Let’s face it—you wouldn’t want to drink water that had been sitting out all day either. Cats notoriously avoid standing water, and the Petkit EverSweet Ultra takes that to heart. Its OneWay Flow design sends fresh water from a 5-liter tank straight to the tray, while used water drains into a separate 1.8-liter wastewater tank, so your cat never drinks recirculated water (and you never have to replace a filter). The real standout is the 140-degree AI camera, which recognizes up to 15 individual pets and logs who drank, when, and how much. That’s a big help in multi-pet homes, where it’s hard to tell if one cat has stopped drinking. With 24/7 live view, refill reminders, and custom alerts in the Petkit app, it’s a smart way to keep every cat in the house happy and hydrated. Just note that it’s a splurge, and some features require a Petkit Care+ subscription.

It’s hard to think of a less-loved chore than cleaning the litter box. It’s messy, smelly, and just plain gross. So it’s no wonder that the best box around is one that takes care of the cleaning for you. The OneIsAll Ease automates scooping and collecting kitty litter clumps, keeping them in a separate container for easy disposal. While that container won’t clean itself, it does remove fully for easy washing. So go ahead: Let the litter box clean itself.

The best dog leashes make taking your canine companion for a walk easier and more enjoyable for both of you, and that’s what the Primal Pet Gear Double Handle Dog Leash does. We appreciated its durable yet lightweight nylon construction, as well as the extra neoprene padding on the handles. This leash can withstand heavy dogs and strong pullers. Our dogs love that the two-handled design lets us keep them on a long leash (literally) for exploration while holding them securely close when strolling through busy parks or city streets.

Strong, secure, and designed for comfort, the Country Brook Petz Martingale Collar is our top pick for training collars. While martingale collars aren’t for every dog, we found this one well-designed to help train dogs prone to lunging and pulling, with heavy-duty nylon construction and finished edges to reduce irritation.

If your dog is an escape artist, you know just how heart-pounding it can be to track them down safely. The Halo Collar 5 is built for exactly that. Its PrecisionGPS system analyzes 20 location updates per second and uses AI software to filter out interference, which the brand says keeps your dog’s location accurate to within 1.4 feet, even when you’re off the beaten path. Tracking stays on all the time, with no low-power modes, so you see where your pup is right now, not where they were a minute ago. Halo rates the battery for up to 48 hours. You can draw GPS fences in the app in seconds, anywhere from 900 square feet to 1,200 square miles, and the collar stores them so they work without Wi-Fi or cell service. And the waterproof collar is tough enough to hang with your pup, too, even if they go rogue. Just know that the $599 collar requires a Halo subscription plan.

Using a GPS fence with your dog has many advantages over an older electric version: no digging or burying, for one, and it’s an option even if you’re a renter or like to let your dog run off-leash at the park, like our tester. The SpotOn GPS Dog Fence (Nova Edition) worked well for us and our dog: They figured it out quickly, and we liked the multilayered correction options. Most of all, the GPS was impressively accurate, and the app was genuinely useful. As our tester puts it, the Nova “delivers on what GPS-based dog containment has always promised but rarely fully achieved.”
