Non Toxic Dog Beds
Non-toxic pet beds are important because pets and their owners tend to share diseases due to shared environmental exposures. The healthiest pet beds use the same standard as human bedding: solid natural materials like organic latex, solid wood, and GOTS-certified cotton, without synthetic foams or unnecessary chemical finishes. Waterproof layers like TPU are an important tradeoff when accident protection is needed, and TPU is a safe GOTS-approved film made from sugarcane. Rating each layer, fabric, fill, wood, and finish, individually gives a clearer picture than judging a non toxic pet bed by its overall look or marketing claims. I rate them using consistent scales explained in my full methodology.

Avocado Organic Dog Mattress and Dog Bed Frame
Avocado uses solid GOLS-certified organic latex and coconut coir with a removable, washable GOTS-certified organic cotton cover that includes an inner layer of TPU for waterproofing, which is important for reducing excess moisture and spills in any mattress, and especially for a dog’s. These mattresses fit perfectly into their solid wood pet bed frames, and come with an optional pet pillow. I love Avocado for how transparent they are about their materials.

Savvy Rest Organic Pet Mattresses and Platform Bed Frames
Savvy Rest offers lots of convenient customizable options for organic pet beds. They have their classic pet mattress, which you can choose formed or shredded latex for, a dog mattress with extra support for heavy or sensitive doggos, optional waterproof liners, and extra covers. They come in all sizes, and you can get the matching platform style solid wood dog bed frame engraved with your dog’s name. They even have an organic pet bed for cats! Like Avocado, they’re incredibly transparent and use totally organic and safe materials.

Couch Covers for Dogs and Cats
If your pet sleeps on your couch instead of a dedicated dog bed, but you want to minimize hair and scratches, a couch cover is the way to go. I have several washable options listed here made with natural materials that will protect your couch safely.
Naturepedic Natural Shredded Latex Pet Pad
Instead of a formed latex mattress like Avocado uses, Naturepedic uses shredded natural latex in their pet beds instead. They use a mixture of GOLS certified organic latex and natural latex that’s FSC certified (for forest sustainability, not necessarily organic.) These come with a washable GOTS-certified organic cotton cover that contains a thin layer of TPU for waterproofing, which is nice, and these come in many sizes from small to XL depending on your dog’s needs. These are ideal if you want a natural option that’s a bit more affordable and that’s easy to move around without a bed frame.
