From the outside looking in, pet-sitting can seem like a dream job — after all, who wouldn’t want to spend their days with cute cats and dogs? Of course, when you’re a pet-sitter yourself, you know the reality: it has downsides just like any other job. One of those downsides is that your home suffers far more wear and tear than the average house.
Carpets take a particularly strong beating. From dirty paw prints to shedding fur, pets leave behind a wave of carpet mess wherever they go. When you have dogs to walk and cats to feed, it can be hard to find the time to deep clean all that dirt and debris.
Thankfully, regular Chem-Dry carpet cleaning can help. Chem-Dry is a fast, affordable cleaning method that’s completely safe for the pets you’re looking after and the rest of your family. Here’s why it’s such a must for pet-sitters.
One of the worst things about carpet is that way it traps odours between its fibres. It may seem impossible to keep your carpet from smelling when you have multiple pets around. Cats and dogs impart their own smell onto the carpet when they roll around on it, and with so many pets you’re bound to face accidents involving urine, feces and vomit, which will naturally make the smell worse.
Regular Chem-Dry carpet cleaning is one of the best way to keep these odours at bay. Professional cleaners use a specially formulated deodoriser to penetrate your carpet, lifting out urine crystals and odour molecules. Instead of covering up the odours, it destroys them completely, leaving your carpet smelling fresher for longer.
When you take on a job like pet-sitting, you learn to be less critical about your home’s appearance. However, the same can’t be said for your clients. To outsiders, the appearance of your carpet is a sign of your professionalism, cleanliness, and ability to provide their pet with a great temporary home.
Even if you don’t care about the occasional scuff or stain, having your carpet cleaned regularly is sure to impress the people who do care. A spotless carpet shows people that you’re committed to cleanliness and that you take your profession seriously, proving that you’re the right person to keep their fur baby healthy and happy for a week or two.
When your carpet looks as good as the floors of people who don’t own pets, you’ll be able to show new potential clients around with confidence.
Even people who spend all day sitting cats and dogs can be affected by pet allergens. Pets have dander on their skin that sheds onto carpets, working its way into the fibres. As carpets become more and more clogged, these allergens are released back into the air in your home. This can cause a whole range of unpleasant health conditions, from skin irritation to an increase in asthma symptoms.
You should note that not all carpet cleaning methods actually tackle allergens. Chem-Dry is one of the few processes that has been proven to have a positive effect. A study conducted on the Hot Carbonating Extraction (HCE) process used during Chem-Dry cleaning showed that a whopping 98.1% of household allergens were lifted from the carpets they cleaned.
On top of that, Chem-Dry also prevents more indoor air pollution from forming. The process uses 80% less water than steamers do, ensuring that carpets don’t get waterlogged during cleaning. This stop mould and mildew—two more skin and respiratory irritants—from forming In your home.
