At the start of the pandemic, amidst all the toilet paper shortage, lockdowns and zoom calls, many of us faced the 2020 puppy boom. At Absolute Domestics we absolutely adore dogs! We happen to have our own furry workmate, Chubby, who puts a smile on everyone’s face. Pets can be pretty messy and sometimes regaining your clean home can be quite the challenge. If there’s anything Absolute Domestics understands, it’s the importance of a clean and tidy home. We’ve made an absolute pet-approved list of tips to help keep the fur at bay.

Grooming

One of the main things we often hear pet parents fret over is the tumbleweed of fur that rolls across their floor, baseboards and even upholstered furniture. Having your furry friend regularly groomed can significantly decrease the shedding. You don’t need to worry about going to a professional groomer either, brushing your pet a couple of times a week does the trick just as well. We also recommend giving your pet a regular bath, it’s the best way to minimise that “dog smell.” Remember, a clean dog and a clean home go hand in hand! 

A bored pet is a destructive pet, so don’t skip those afternoon walks. We also suggest getting your pet enriching toys, now most of us aren’t stuck inside our homes, keep them busy when your away. Getting them focused on constructive fun distracts them from potentially tearing pillows or shredding your mail.

Regular Exercise

Clean Paws

Placemats

Vacuuming

Brushing and wiping their paws minimise the mess but unfortunately, pet hair is inevitable. At Absolute Domestics, we advise furry pet owners to try and vacuum their whole house at least once a week, we know it’s a lot of work but it makes the world a difference.
