Add the mat
Stiff all over? Add the lie-down mat
For the pet who is stiff all over and loves to stretch out, a large red light mat that warms the back, hips and legs in one lie-down session.
Easier get-ups, stairs and walks, from one evening routine
Four everyday wins owners describe, and how the vest helps with each one.
01Get-ups
Easier first steps after a long nap
The vest lays its LEDs along the spine and hips (plus a belly panel on Medium and Large), so red and near-infrared light reaches the stiff spots while they doze.
“this helped him to get to his water and out the doggie door”
Senior dog owner, on red light at home
02Stairs + sofa
Back up the stairs and onto the sofa
Near-infrared (850 nm) travels deeper than red, toward the muscle and tissue around the hips that make them pause before the jump.
“She has been running like a puppy.”
Senior dog owner, on red light at home
03Walks
More interest in the morning walk
One 20 minute session every evening, so they start the day looser instead of warming up halfway round the block.
“Love that I can do this at home as well as at vet's.”

04Calm
A calm 20 minutes you share, never hot
Low-power LEDs, no UV, 3 brightness levels and an automatic stop. It feels like soft warmth, so most dogs settle in next to you.
“He gets a massage after the treatment and he just melts like butter.”
Stiffness starts deep in the muscles and joints, where tired cells run low on energy and blood flow slows down. The vest puts red and near-infrared light right against the back and hips, and that light is what researchers study for cell energy, circulation and comfort.
1. The light goes in
Every LED rests against the back. Red light (660 nm) is absorbed near the skin, and near-infrared (850 nm) travels deeper toward muscle and joints.
2. Cells turn it into energy
The mitochondria, each cell's power plants, absorb this light. Lab studies show they then make more ATP, the fuel cells use for upkeep and repair.
3. Blood flow picks up
Light also frees nitric oxide, which relaxes small blood vessels so more oxygen and nutrients reach stiff tissue.
4. What you can notice
Looser muscles, calmer naps and easier get-ups. Short daily sessions add up, which is how the studies used light.
The science
Why vets use red light, and what studies found
Vets and rehab clinics use red and near-infrared light, called photobiomodulation. Petciety brings the same two kinds of light home in gentle LEDs that face the body.

60day promise
Try the vest for 60 days, or get every cent back
Clip it on every evening and watch the next morning's get-up. If the vest is not right for them, email us before day 60 and we refund the full product price. Plus a 1-year warranty, so if it ever stops working, we replace it.
Clip it on every eveningOne session a day while they nap.
Email us before day 60If the vest is not for them, just tell us.
Full refundEvery cent of the product price. No forms, no hoops.
Small for toy dogs up to about 11 lb, Medium for small dogs about 11 to 22 lb, Large for dogs about 22 lb and up. Between sizes? Email us their weight and a photo and we will tell you honestly.
Do all sizes have the belly panel?
Medium and Large have both a back panel and a belly panel. Small, made for toy dogs, has one back panel with a belly strap.
My dog has a long back. Will it fit?
For Dachshunds, Corgis and other long backs, email us their weight, back length and a photo. We will tell you which size covers more of the spine.
Will my dog keep it on?
Put it on while they nap. The side-release buckles click shut and the belly strap holds the panels in place when they shift. Calm and lying down works far better than chasing them around.
Does it work through thick fur?
No shaving. On thick, double or dark coats, part the fur under the panel so the LEDs sit close to the skin. Short coats can go straight on.
How do I charge it?
With the USB cable, between sessions, so it is ready for tomorrow evening.
Do I need the Leg Wraps?
Only if the legs are stiff too. The vest covers the back, hips and, on Medium and Large, the belly. Leg Wraps reach the elbows, knees and ankles, and each one is $25 off with a vest.
Can I use it every day?
Yes, once a day. Keep the first evenings short and on low brightness, then let the timer end the session.
