Love Your Pets — Not the Stains

Pets bring joy, companionship, and unconditional love — but they can also bring tough carpet stains and odors that are difficult to remove. If your home is starting to smell less than fresh, you’re not alone. From occasional accidents to everyday wear, your carpet absorbs a lot over time.

Fortunately, with the right approach (and a little help from professionals), you can get your carpet looking and smelling like new again.

Step 1: Act Fast When Accidents Happen

Fresh stains are always easier to treat. Blot the area immediately using a clean towel or paper towels — but never rub, as that pushes the mess deeper into the carpet fibers.

Once most of the moisture is gone, lightly dab the area with a mix of white vinegar and water (one part vinegar to three parts water). This helps neutralize odor-causing bacteria while being safe for pets and children.

Step 2: Neutralize Odors — Don’t Just Cover Them

Many store-bought sprays simply mask odors temporarily. To truly remove pet smells, you need to target the bacteria beneath the surface. Baking soda is a natural deodorizer — sprinkle it generously over the area, let it sit for a few hours, then vacuum it thoroughly.

If the odor comes back later, it’s likely penetrated into the carpet pad. That’s a sign it’s time for professional deep cleaning.

Step 3: Call a Professional for Deep Pet Odor Removal
