Pet Odor, Pet Urine, Stains
Hey we love our pets too...But in the real world accidents happen. If your carpet becomes stained, and saturated, the urine pools and settles into the pad, requiring it to be pulled back and treated.
In extreme cases the carpet padding must be removed, and the flooring underneath treated. This can become quite expensive and require a skilled technician.
If the damage is minimal. it can be soaked and treated with our chemicals, then hot-water extraction is done to remove the stain and smell.

Pet Urine Cleaning Tips
As much as we may love our friendly four legged friends, this is one of the drawbacks of having a pet. Accidents are bound to happen, especially in the early stages of your puppy or kitten’s life when they are not potty trained. Or, in their later stages when they can no longer make it outside to “do their business”. It happens. And if it does, here’s how to clean pet urine from your carpet.
Pet Urine Prevention

1. Potty train your dog as fast as possible. This may sound obvious, but you need to teach your dog or kitten to pee in a litter box or outside as soon as possible to make it a lifelong habit and avoid accidents in the future.
2. Use pee pads. If you still can’t get your dog to go to the bathroom outside, leave a pee pad out for your furry friend. Many don’t leak through so it won’t get onto your carpet, and there are many options at pet stores that have scents that attract your dog.
3. Leave your dog outside if you’re going to be gone. Many dogs have separation anxiety, and thus, when you’re gone they pee because they feel uncomfortable, bored, or lonely, or simply want to cause some chaos and punish you for leaving them. Whatever the case may be, try to fix the separation anxiety problem and if needed, leave your dogs outside so they don’t pee on the carpet.
4. Use a doggie diaper. If your dog is getting a little old, it may be time to use a doggie diaper. If he or she is getting too crippled to make it outside, strap one of these on to prevent your older dog from peeing in the house.

How to Clean Pet Urine From Your Carpet
Dog pee on the carpet is one of the worst things that can happen to your carpet. Not only does it smell bad and discolor your carpet but the subfloor below may need to be treated as well. If the dog urine accident isn’t too bad, simply blot up as much of the urine as possible with a clean, white towel. From there, you will have to use cleaning solutions that are specifically formulated to counteract dog or cat urine (try your local supermarket or pet store). Then, you must use a wet dry vacuum cleaner using a water claw attachment to prevent the urine from seeping into the backing and subfloor.
In more extreme cases, however, you will likely need professional help. What happens with dog urine is that it's acidic and smelly nature will soak right through to the padding and backing of your carpet. This is hard to clean. Normally, the carpet will have to be stripped up and cleaned out, and the subfloor retreated. You will have to have a skilled worker reay your carpet into your existing floor. It can add up, so be sure to keep your dog from being inside.
