About Petmate
Petmate is an Arlington, Texas manufacturer of pet products including kennels, beds, feeding systems, and accessories, producing a significant portion of its lineup at its domestic facilities for American pet owners.
Heritage & History
Petmate was founded in 1963 in Arlington, Texas with a focus on creating durable, practical products for pet owners. The company was among the first to develop the plastic kennel — a product that became standard for pet travel and that the airline industry eventually required for pet transport. Petmate's kennel design became so ubiquitous that it effectively defined the category.
Over more than six decades, Petmate expanded its product line from kennels into beds, feeding systems, water dispensers, litter boxes, and a comprehensive range of pet accessories. The company's Texas heritage and manufacturing roots have remained central to its identity even as it grew into one of the largest pet product companies in North America.
Made in Arlington, Texas
Petmate's primary manufacturing operations are based in Arlington, Texas, where the company produces kennels, Arm and Hammer branded litter boxes, and other hard-sided pet containment and care products. The Texas facility represents significant domestic manufacturing capacity in a pet products category where imported alternatives have become dominant.
The company's commitment to American-made production for its core kennel and containment products reflects both its heritage and the practicality of producing large, bulky plastic products domestically — where shipping costs make local manufacturing economically competitive. Petmate's made-in-USA kennels have transported millions of pets safely across the country on airlines, in cars, and in homes.
