Pets entertain us, love us and live with us. Unfortunately, dogs may not “hold it” and cats can “miss the box.” The do not always go where owners can see or clean quickly or easily. Accident sites and stains are sometimes found only when furniture is moved around or removed from the room.

Products available over the counter often promise to remove odors can stains caused by pets. The odors include dander, vomit, urine and feces. Although the products may temporarily break up odors on the surface of carpeting, they cannot penetrate all the way through to the padding under the carpet.

Commercial stain removers may not work well on all types of carpeting; bleaching or additional staining can occur. Many products contain phrases such as, “Be sure to test product first in an inconspicuous area,” so that the consumer can learn if damage will occur. This is a waste of money if the product, which cannot be returned after it is opened, will damage the carpeting.

Professional carpet cleaners have technicians highly trained and skilled to recognize the type of carpeting in a home. They will also know how to deal with all types of pet stains. Company vehicles are well supplied with cleaners capable of safely removing pet odors and stains from the carpet and the padding below it. They can clean upholstery as well as the carpeting and warrantee the work. If odors from the same places return, technicians will return and retreat the area at no additional charge.
