Anyone who has dogs knows they’re messy. And, if they don’t have anywhere to wipe their paws, it’ll track all over your house. Thankfully Costco heard the call with their new Microfiber Pet Mat that dogs will love, so run—don’t walk—to snag one.
The July 9 TikTok video shared by @costcobuys shows an up-close-and-personal look at the pet mat of the moment, and it’s stellar! Take a look!

The short clip gives Costco fans a view of the oversized mat, which comes in the colors of gray and light tan, are “highly absorbent, durable, non-skid, & machine washable!” the clip says.
The front label suggests the mat is five times more absorbent than other mats to keep floors dry and clean. The extra long fibers, that are long lasting, trap dirt and water while the non-skid portion won’t scratch up your floors. The fact that it’s machine washable for easy care makes this a must-have, and at $26.99,” it’s a steal.
If you have one dog or multiple, the pet mat is a fantastic place for your pup(s) to lay and play with their favorite toys or just to hang out after outside time. Thanks to its dirt-trapping fibers, it’s truly a multitasker!

Do dog parents really need a pet mat?
Of the list of things dog parents need, a pet mat tops the list. Well, aside from all the basics (crate, bed, toys, etc). It may seem like a random item, but having dogs means a lot of in and out. And, if it’s raining or snowing, they need somewhere to wipe their precious toe beans, so as not to track the mess into the rest of the house. With a washable, microfiber mat like this Costco version, you won’t have to worry as much about that.
Plus, a pet mat can double as a napping pad. Maybe it’s not ideal that they lay where they first step in, but if that’s their thing, at least it pulls double duty by feeling cozy while catching their mess. According to WebMD, dogs sleep up to 14 hours a day and they might not choose their dog bed, so this could be an option for them to lay on so you’re not lint-rolling furniture all the time.
The bottom line is that pet mats are something to have if making a mess is your dog’s favorite thing to do. And at $26.99, it’s worth it!
