Cleaning Tips for Multi-Pet Homes: Keeping Hair and Odours Under Control 🐾✨
If you live with multiple furry companions, you know the joys of pet parenthood — and the mess that comes with it. From shedding fur to that “I have pets” smell, managing a clean, fresh-smelling home can feel like a full-time job. But with the right strategies (and a little help from the pros at TIDYB), you can reclaim your space without compromising your love for your pets.
Whether you’ve got two cats, three dogs, or a mix of birds and bunnies, this guide is packed with practical tips, expert advice, and clever hacks to help you stay on top of the mess. Let’s dive into your ultimate clean-pet-home strategy!
The Hair Situation: Taming the Shedding 🐶🐱
Pet fur is everywhere — on couches, in corners, and somehow even floating through the air. The key? Regular, targeted cleaning.
Pro Tips:
Use a rubber squeegee or damp rubber glove to lift hair off upholstery and carpets.
Vacuum daily (yes, daily!) in high-traffic and pet-favorite zones. Consider investing in a pet-specific vacuum with a HEPA filter.
Add washable throws to your sofa and pet beds for easier weekly cleaning.

Odour Control 101: Fresh Vibes Only 🕯️🌿
Pets bring love — and some lingering smells. Neutralizing odours (instead of masking them) is the secret sauce.
Pro Tips:
Sprinkle baking soda on carpets before vacuuming for natural deodorizing.
Wash pet bedding weekly and clean litter boxes or cages daily.
Use enzyme-based cleaners (not bleach) for accidents — they break down odour-causing bacteria at the source.
For serious accidents, check out our full guide on pet odour removal.
Air Quality Matters: Breathe Easy 🌬️🌱
Your air should smell like spring breeze, not a petting zoo. Indoor air quality plays a big role in managing pet-related odours and allergens.
Open your windows regularly for fresh airflow.
Add an air purifier with a HEPA filter to your main living area.
Use essential oil diffusers safely (lavender is pet-safe!) or try these natural freshening tips.
Cleaning Schedule: Consistency Is Key 🧼🗓️
Pets bring unpredictability, but your cleaning routine shouldn’t! Use our cleaning checklist to create a system that works for your lifestyle and household size.
TIDYB Pro Tip: Aim for a consistent weekly deep clean of pet areas to avoid buildup. A deep cleaning service can reset your home and help you maintain it with ease.
