Springtime comes with lots of fun, like picnics, playing outside, taking longer strolls through the neighborhood, and enjoying beautiful weather. It’s also when many people refresh their homes with some good old-fashioned spring cleaning. If you’re a pet parent, you’ll need a few extra things to keep your home clean and tidy this spring.
These Products Make Spring Cleaning a Breeze for Pet Parents
Springtime is a time to refresh and renew, and that desire extends to your home. But if you have a dog or cat you know that keeping your home clean is often easier said than done.
Between the shedding fur, messy mealtimes, and bringing the outdoors in, pets add extra challenges to keeping the house clean. Lucky for you, these products make it easy to keep your home clean during spring (and any time of year).
1. The Neater Feeder
If your pet’s a messy eater, say goodbye to the days of food and water all over your floor. The Neater Feeder has raised walls that keep food from flying out the dish and a handy filter system that sends spilled water to the reservoir below. The stainless steel bowls are easy to clean and non-skid feet keep the Neater Feeder in place.
2. OdoBan Disinfectant Laundry and Air Freshener
OdoBan Disinfectant Laundry & Air Freshener does it all when it comes to conquering pet odors and germs. Use it on non-porous surfaces, washable surfaces, carpets, bedding, and more. In addition to killing 99.9% of germs, it leaves behind a pleasant fresh scent and no greasy residue.
3. The Rolly Cannoli
Interactive toys are a great way to keep pets engaged, stimulated, and alert. They’re also lots of fun and often help dogs and cats relax. The Rolly Cannoli has a unique design that keeps treats and other tempting snacks, like peanut butter, inside the toy instead of staining your floors.
4. Neat-Lik Licking Mat and Mess-Proof Tray
Licking mats like the Neat-Lik Treat Mat are a great way to help dogs and cats keep calm during stressful experiences, like fireworks and thunderstorms. The mental stimulation and distraction it gives your pet also helps reduce unwanted destructive behaviors, like toppling trash cans and clawing couch cushions.
The Neat-Lik Licking Mat also provides an alternative for speedy eaters, encouraging them to slow down (which means less mess). For extra efficiency, place the mat inside the specially-designed mess-proof tray to ensure everything stays in place instead of ending up on your floor.
5. Furbliss Pet Wipes
Longer days and warm sunshine mean many pets will start spending more time playing outside. More time outside means more dirt and muck inside your house, which means extra cleaning for you.
Limit the amount of dirt and allergens your pet brings inside after their outdoor adventure with the Furbliss Refreshing Pet Wipes. A quick wipe down gets rid of dirt while leaving behind a fresh scent. They’re a quick and easy way to catch the grime before it ends up in your home.
6. The Neater Scooper
Cleaning your cat’s litter box is likely not the highlight of your day, but the Neater Scooper makes it a walk in the park. There’s no messy transfer from scoop to trash bag. The easy-to-use tool scoops and deposits your cat’s waste in one flick of the wrist.
7. Levoit Pet Air Purifier
The Levoit Pet Air Purifier features a sleek design and works well in areas up to 219 square feet. It features a pet-lock button so your dog or cat can’t accidentally shut it off if they get curious. It quietly removes odors, pollen, pet dander, and pet hair from the air.
8. The FurDozer
Shedding is no longer a hassle with the Neater Pet’s FurDozer. These handy fur-grabbing tools take care of pet hair on carpet, clothing, bedding, furniture, your car, and much more. Mini designs make it easy to take on the go, while larger sizes make cleaning up big messes a snap.
9. NaturVet Yard Odor Eliminator
Does your back patio smell like pet urine? Do your outdoor furniture cushions have a perpetual unpleasant smell because your pet’s made them their personal perch? NaturVet Yard Odor Eliminator is safe to use around pets and on grass and plants. Spray it on patio furniture, fences, kennels, the yard, and anywhere else outside that’s smelling less than fresh.
10. The Neater Mat
There’s no more need to stress over meal times with messy eaters when you have the Neater Mat. Its non-slip silicone design keeps pet dishes of all kinds in place instead of slipping and sliding. The raised edges protect your floors from spills and make it easy to clean up after meals.
11. Pet Odor Exterminator Candles
Pet Odor Exterminator Candles give you a stylish way to erase pet odors in your home. They have an impressive 70 hours of burn time and feature a paraffin and soy blend. Lavender and chamomile help add a calming scent to the air as odors disappear. Other fragrances include Vanilla, Mulberry & Spice, Sandalwood, Yin Yang, and Cinnamon Apple.
12. The Neater Litter Trapping Mat
Are you tired of finding litter in your rugs, on your furniture, and on your floors? A litter trapping mat is a must to keep your kitty from tracking litter all through your house. As your cat steps out of their box, the mat clings onto the litter so it doesn’t end up on your floors. Simply shake the mat out over the litter box or vacuum it during your regular cleaning sessions.
13. Bona Pet Microfiber Mop
The Bona Pet Microfiber Mop comes with a pad specifically designed to grab onto pet hair. The extra-large mophead and telescoping handle makes cleaning up messes quick and efficient.
