Between rain-soaked walks, shedding coats, and the occasional “accident,” as a pet owner – your carpets can quickly lose their freshness. At Tuxedo Carpet Care, our Pet-Friendly Carpet Cleaning can help you keep carpets clean through the challenging fall months. As well, we want to add in some advice to further help our pet-loving community!
Pet Hair, Muddy Paws & The Effects of Fall: Pet-Friendly Carpet Cleaning Advice
Stay on Top of Shedding Season
Fall is a major shedding season for many cats and dogs. Their summer coats make way for thicker winter fur, which often ends up all over your carpet and furniture.
To help combat this…
- Use a vacuum with a pet-hair attachment two to three times a week.
- Sprinkle a small amount of baking soda before vacuuming to help neutralize pet odors.
- Wash or brush your pet regularly to reduce loose fur around the home.
Stop Mud at the Door
Rainy fall weather means muddy paws. This simple routine can save your carpets:
- Keep a towel and pet-safe wipes near your entryway to clean paws before pets come inside.
- Place a washable mat or rug by the door to catch dirt and moisture.
For stains that have already set in, don’t scrub harshly. Blot with a damp cloth and mild detergent, then call our professional cleaner to safely remove any residue without damaging your carpet fibers.
Eliminate Pet Odors at the Source
Accidents happen! Whether you have a dog or a cat, urine or fecal matter may linger on their paws which transfer onto your carpet. Other times, accidents may happen and you may be left with a urine stain entirely. This is very unhealthy as bacteria breeds on the surface causing putrid odors. Tuxedo Carpet Care specializes in pet odour removal and we are here to help.
Professional Carpet Cleaning – Safe for Pets
Fall is the perfect time to refresh your home before the holiday season. With more time spent indoors and guests on the way, a professional carpet cleaning not only enhances your space but also improves indoor air quality, especially important for families with pets or allergies.
