Keeping your furniture clean can be a real headache, especially if you share your home with furry friends. Don’t worry, I’ve got your back with some top upholstery floor and carpet cleaning services tips that might just save your sanity.

First off, let’s chat about shedding. Dogs and cats have a knack for leaving their fur everywhere. A lint roller is your new best friend. Roll it over the fabric to pick up hair in a jiffy. If the fur is super stubborn, grab a damp rubber glove and run it over the surface; the fur will stick like magic.

Next up is the bane of every pet owner: stains. Our pets don’t always know (or care) where to do their business. The quicker you act, the better. If you spot an accident, blot it immediately with a clean cloth. Don’t rub; dabbing works wonders.

For those tough stains, mix a bit of vinegar with water to create a simple, homemade cleaner. Spritz it on the spot and blot away. You might also want to use baking soda for odors. Sprinkle it on, let it sit, and then vacuum it up.

Scratching is another hurdle. Cats, in particular, seem to believe your couch is their personal scratching post. Consider a dedicated scratching post nearby to divert their attention. In the meantime, try covering the furniture arms with aluminum foil—they dislike the texture.

If your pet enjoys lounging on the sofa, invest in washable covers. These offer a straightforward solution for pet hair and dirt. Just toss them in the wash when they get grubby. Trust me, it’s a game-changer.

Vacuuming? Absolutely necessary. And not just once in a blue moon. You’ll want to vacuum your upholstery regularly, using the brush attachment. This helps avoid build-up of dirt, hair, and allergens. Set a reminder if you have to; your future self will thank you.
