Our pets are a part of the family. If you’re looking to adopt but worried about possible damages, why not make your home pet-friendly? Here are some helpful tips and tricks for the best of both worlds; a clean and comfortable home for everyone. Less mess = less stress!
Who doesn’t want to snuggle their furry friends on the couch? Removable, washable cushion covers are available in a variety of colors, textures, and patterns to match whatever look you’re going for. Even white!
Don’t tempt them with a good time to make a mess. Out of sight, out of mind!
Our pets love fresh air too, let them enjoy it while you work around the house with a pet-friendly safety screen or rails to keep them contained. Consider a small pet door on the porch for hotter days. Easy access to shade for a quick cool-off and a place for an extra bowl of water is essential.
Accidents happen, and when they do, it’s easier to toss a washable accent rug in the wash than scrub with a carpet cleaner. Tile and hardwood floors sweep clean quickly and don’t hold on to any pet-related odors like installed carpet can.
Give them a bit more space to run with a fortified pool covering that is easy to remove.
If your pet is a swimmer, consider saltwater over chlorine to avoid irritating their skin or eyes.
Privacy and safety confidence is unmatched when you fence in your yard. Ditch the lead and let your pet run free.
