Pet odor is probably one of the biggest problem pet owners with carpet face. Carpet holds odors in, but if you bathe and brush your pets on a regular basis, you can avoid pet odors

Another issue for carpet with pets around is stains. Whether from vomit or a potty accident, both require two different types of treatment. If your pet has an accident before it makes it to the litter box or outside for a potty break, you can clean it by dabbing up the stain with a damp sponge or cloth. Next, scrub the stain out with water and vinegar – this removes the stain and the odor. In the case of vomit, vinegar and water alone won’t do it – you need to call up the professionals.

As with anything else, if you want your carpet to last and look good for a long time, you have to take care of it. Proper and routine maintenance is the key to keeping your carpet looking and smelling pet-free.
