About PetCot

Twenty-five years of cots built to last

PetCot began when a pet food company tested our childcare cots with dogs and came back raving about them. Today we make elevated cots and forced-air warming cots for veterinary clinics, kennels, and homes.

Our story

From a childcare cot to veterinary-grade warming

2001

The accidental pivot

A pet food company tested our childcare cots with dogs and came back raving about them. PetCot was born.

2005

Winning the kennels

Cleanability and durability became our value proposition, and took us from mom-and-pop kennels to corporate chains.

2015

A first foothold in veterinary care

Durability won over kennels, and our heat-welded vinyl pad became our first foothold in veterinary clinics.

2022

Ruff'n Tumble

The Ruff'n Tumble PetCot arrived, and national boarding and veterinary groups began adopting it. Today it averages 4.9 stars from customer reviews.

2025

The Warming Cot

A veterinarian's improvised towel fix inspired a purpose-built product and opened a new research and development focus.

2026

Surgery, dental, and AirCot

We extended the warming line into surgery and dental, with veterinary medical advisors responding strongly, and launched AirCot, our fan-powered cooling bed for dogs at home.

How we build

One patented platform, four promises

01 / Comfort

Better for dogs

Elevated, breathable support promotes cooler, more comfortable rest, and doubles as a consistent place-training surface.

02 / Usability

Easier for owners

Tool-free assembly and breakdown make the cot simple to move, clean, store, and refresh with replaceable parts.

03 / Durability

Built for demanding environments

Steel frames with e-coat and powder-coat finishes, and no screws or bolts to keep tightening. Proven in homes, outdoor settings, and high-use kennels.

04 / Defensibility

Patented by design

The patented dual-frame construction allows quick, tool-free assembly and includes an integrated track for cooling, warming, toppers, bowls, and future components.

The team

The people behind PetCot

Greg Squires

President and Chief Innovation Officer

Greg has been an entrepreneur since age 16. He built a retail childcare furniture business, then founded The PetCot Company in 2001. In 2010 he landed a national pet-supply account on the strength of the PetCot alone, then expanded into national veterinary and boarding groups.

His operating principle: staying stagnant means falling behind, and reinvention keeps the business relevant.

Jim Squires

Chief Marketing and Revenue Operations Officer

Jim leads marketing, data, and customer experience. He brings more than 20 years of digital, ecommerce, and customer-experience leadership across B2B and B2C, including global digital roles at Mars Petcare and Royal Canin, which span the same veterinary, boarding, and pet owner channels PetCot serves.

He has also held vice president roles in digital at Copeland and Emerson.
