How to Get Rid of Dog Smell in Your Home

Vacuuming the floor is one way to get rid of pet hair and dander, but it is more effective to vacuum other areas as well. Regularly vacuum curtains, furniture and other places your dog usually spends time around.

White vinegar can be used to get rid of lingering smells. You can make a natural cleaning solution by mixing vinegar and water. Use the solution when mopping floors or spray it on carpets.

If your furniture coverings are washable, consider washing them regularly. Dog saliva and dander often cause unwanted odor on the items your pets use. You should also wash dog beds, toys and bowls as often as possible to eliminate any odors or bacteria that stick to these items.

Baking soda is a great neutralizer for pet odor. You should sprinkle baking soda on fabrics, dog beds and carpets and let it sit for a few minutes. Wipe the area that has baking soda with a wet cloth or vacuum it to eliminate the unpleasant pet smell.

Giving your dog a bath on a regular basis can help get rid of the smell. If you bathe them yourself, ensure they stay off of the furniture or carpets until they are completely dry.

If you’ve tried everything and still can’t remove the smell, you should consider hiring a professional cleaning company. Pet odors tend to linger on carpets and require a steam clean or other methods that can only be done by professional cleaners.
