Vacuum regularly
We recommend vacuuming at least 2-3 times a week to keep pet hair, dander, and dirt under control. However, the frequency of vacuuming may vary depending on the number of pets you have, their shedding patterns, and the type of flooring in your home. If you have multiple pets or pets that shed heavily, you may need to vacuum more frequently to maintain a clean environment.
Use pet friendly cleaning products
Avoid exposing your pets to harmful chemicals. Some products are safe for humans, but harmful for your pets. Make sure you use pet friendly cleaners when cleaning your home. Unsure what cleaning product to use? Reach out to Eckler Cleaning and we can help you find the right solution.
Wash pet bedding
Toys and pet bedding need to be washed frequently to prevent odors and bacteria buildup. Would you sleep on dirty sheets? You pet doesn’t want to either. Cat trees, bed beds, blankets, and pet cages all need to be washed frequently.
In addition to regular washing, it’s a good idea to vacuum pet bedding in between washings to remove loose hair and debris. Providing your pets with clean bedding not only helps keep them comfortable but also contributes to a healthier living environment for both you and your furry companions.
Clean up pet accidents
Accidents happen. Clean pet messes promptly with an enzymatic cleaner to eliminate stains and odors. The longer a mess sits, the harder it is to clean, and it is more likely to leave odor and damage.
Groom your pets
Yes, grooming your pet regularly can keep your home cleaner too. The more loose fur and dead skin you can remove from your pet with a brush, the less you will find in your home.
Regular grooming not only helps keep your pet’s coat clean and healthy but also allows you to check for any skin issues, parasites, or abnormalities. It’s important to establish a grooming routine that works for both you and your pet to ensure their well-being. If you have specific concerns or questions about grooming your pet, it’s best to consult with a professional groomer or veterinarian for personalized advice.
Clean litter boxes and feeding areas
Do you want to use a dirty toilet or eat off a dirty plate? Your pet doesn’t want to either. We recommend washing pet bowls at least once a week. You do not need special cleaning products to wash pet bowls. You can use dawn, just be sure to rinse thoroughly. Litter boxes should be scooped at least every other day (sometimes more if you have a big pooper like my Charlie boy) and litter needs to be replaced before it starts to look awful.
