How to Create a Pet-Friendly Home for Your Family_

If you are a pet owner or planning to have one, then this article is for you! Every pet is different and may have different requirements, and you need to be sure to provide them. There might be a lot of dangerous things that could be a threat to your pets. In this article, we will discuss creating a pet-friendly home.

Getting a pet soon? Here are some simple ways to keep pets safe and comfortable in your home. Click To Tweet

Avoid Rugs and Carpets

When making a pet-friendly home, always keep the flooring in mind. It would be best if you went with hardwood floors which are easy to clean.

You can also add rugs to give it a modern look. But with the pets, like dogs and cats, you may want to avoid rugs as they can collect their hair, further causing bacteria.

However, if you must, take the help of Dreame Robot Vacuum to enhance your home’s cleanliness. The stronger suction, extended battery, and intelligent system make it perfect for pets’ homes.

It helps eliminate bacteria and is a must for cleaning carpets with its power brushes. It can easily maneuver around any obstacle sucking up pet hair as it goes.

Store Fragile and Precious Items High

Your pets have plenty of space to roam around and play. They love sniffing things and could easily break glass items.

Make sure to store fragile items away from their reach to avoid them breaking your priceless heirlooms.

Avoid Open Wires

Homes mostly consist of concealed wiring, however, the wires of lamps or other electronics pose a risk to pets. These open wires should be strictly out of the reach of your pets to avoid them chewing them.

You can use cable protectors and organizers to keep your pets away from them.

No White or Light Colored Upholstery

Pets are mischievous; they love loitering around and creating a mess. If planning to welcome pets to your home, white should be a big no.

Make sure to avoid white curtains and furniture which would be difficult to clean. You can go with faux leather, which is easy to clean and doesn’t absorb liquids as easily.

Get Trash Cans With Lids


Pets are masters in eating stuff they shouldn’t. Once they get familiar with the house, they exactly know where to get food from.

Make sure that they don’t consume old food or something worse by getting trash cans with lids.

Place Pet-Friendly Indoor Plants

People love to have indoor plants in their homes. Unfortunately, some can be poisonous to pets.

But having pets doesn’t always mean you have to compromise with the decor. Just use pet-friendly indoor plants like parlor palms or spider plants instead.

Keep Your Home Clean

A home with a pet needs constant attention and cleaning to maintain hygiene. Invest in a good vacuum cleaner to make your task easy.

Also, brush your pet outside to minimize the amount of hair they shed inside.

Conclusion

The steps mentioned above are easy to follow and will surely help you create a pet-friendly home. Good luck!
