Pet-Friendly Carpet Cleaning Tips
Pets provide comfort and companionship! Sometimes having animals in the house can lead to stains on the carpets. We love our pets, but it’s not uncommon to have lingering, unwanted odours. You might be asking yourself, “Is it a good idea to have my carpets professionally cleaned?” In this blog post, we’ll provide a few benefits of professional carpet cleaning, especially for households with cats and dogs. Here are some pet-friendly carpet cleaning tips:
Pet Hair Removal
If you live with allergies like I do, you know that pet hair and dander can make your eyes itchy and watery. It doesn’t help that my cat likes to sleep on my pillow during the day! Professional carpet cleaning can effectively remove pet hair embedded in the carpet and upholstery fibres. This helps maintain a clean and allergen-free environment, contributing to healthier indoor air quality. Air quality is particularly important for individuals living with allergies or asthma.
Odour Elimination
Living with an indoor pet can lead to odours from urine or accidents. Or, that smell your dog brings in after playing outside in the rain! Professional cleaning services use specialized treatments to eliminate pet odours, leaving the carpets smelling fresh. Marchand DryMaster uses Out the Odor, a concentrated, safe, effective deodorizing solution designed to eliminate pet odours. If you’re bothered by the smell of a carpet or a favourite chair, call Marchand DryMaster for a free estimate.

Bacterial and Germ Removal
During the season of COVID-19, we learned about the dangers associated with airborne illness. But how many people think about illnesses caused by a dirty carpet? In his article titled, “Health Risks of a Dirty Carpet,” Joel Stenger identifies a few illnesses. Dirty carpets can lead to respiratory issues, allergies, skin irritations, stomach illness, and a weakened immune system. In his section on pet germs, the author writes, “With dogs and dogs that spend time inside and outside of the house, diseases and germs can be easily spread.” Stenger continues, “Fleas and ticks can find their way into your home if you’re not regularly cleaning your pets and your carpets.”
Professional carpet cleaning methods that use commercial equipment, specialized solutions, and hot water extraction, can effectively eliminate these contaminants, leading to a safer, healthier living environment for you and your pets.
Prolongs Carpet Lifespan
Regular professional cleaning can extend the lifespan of your carpets by removing dirt and debris that can cause wear and tear over time. This can be particularly important in high-traffic areas where pets often roam.
Prevention of Mould and Mildew
Bodily fluids, spills, or moisture from pet fur can create an environment conducive to mold and mildew growth. Urine and vomit can leave dangerous bacteria in your carpet, creating an environment where sickness can flourish. Accidents can also increase the risk of sickness for children who crawl on the floor. Marchand DryMaster uses a unique low-moisture system designed to clean deeply, kill germs, sanitize, remove stains, and minimize the illness potential, by thoroughly extracting moisture. if you’re concerned about mould, mildew, or bacteria in your carpet, call Marchand DryMaster for your free estimate.
Improved Aesthetic Appeal
We recently cleaned a beautiful white carpet with over 20 small stains. The homeowner had become so accustomed to the marks, that they told us there were only a few. The customer was surprised when we said we’d removed every stain and was overjoyed when they saw how bright and new the older carpet looked, once we were done. The person said, “It hasn’t looked this good since we bought it 20 years ago!” To put it simply, a clean, fresh-smelling carpet will make you feel better about your home.
Peace of Mind
Knowing that your carpets are professionally cleaned can provide peace of mind. Knowing that your space is safe and sanitary feels good. If you’re a pet lover, you want your animals to be healthy, and you want your home to be clean and free from germs. We also want our children and older family members to be safe as they enjoy the family pets. There’s nothing quite like living in a beautiful, clean, safe home that you can enjoy with family, friends, and your pets.
