If you’re a pet owner, you already know the joy (and chaos) that comes with furry companions. From spontaneous snuggles to surprise shedding seasons, keeping your home fresh and pet-friendly can feel like a full-time job. But it doesn’t have to be that way.
Whether you have a cat who claims every surface as their own or a dog who seems to shed year-round, a few smart habits — and the right tools — can make all the difference.
🧼 1. Regular Grooming = Less Shedding
Consistent brushing isn’t just about vanity; it’s one of the best ways to control shedding and promote your pet’s skin health. Brushing removes loose hair before it lands on your couch or clothes and helps distribute natural oils that keep their coat soft and shiny.
Pro Tip: Try incorporating short, daily grooming sessions instead of long weekly ones — pets are more likely to enjoy it, and you’ll notice far less hair buildup around the house.
🛋️ 2. Create “Pet Zones” in Your Home
Designate cozy spots where your pet can lounge freely. Use washable blankets or covers on favorite furniture areas — it makes cleaning up hair much faster. Keeping a lint roller or mini vacuum nearby helps too, especially for quick touch-ups.
If you’re tight on space, a pet bed in a sunny corner often becomes their go-to hangout, keeping fur concentrated in one easy-to-clean area.
🐕 3. Keep Bedding & Fabrics Fresh
Pet bedding, throw blankets, and cushion covers are hair magnets. Wash them weekly with a mild, pet-safe detergent to remove buildup and odors. Adding a cup of white vinegar to your wash can also help loosen stubborn hair before it clings to your washer drum.
💨 4. Control Shedding at the Source
Diet and hydration play a huge role in coat health. Make sure your pet is getting enough omega-3 fatty acids and water — both help reduce excessive shedding. Consult your vet before adding supplements, but even small nutritional adjustments can lead to noticeable improvements in coat texture and shedding levels.
✋ 5. Simplify Cleaning with the Right Tool
Even with the best habits, pet hair has a way of sneaking onto couches, carpets, and car seats. That’s where a pet hair cleaning mitt like Soleya’s can make a big difference.

🐾 6. Keep It Fun & Consistent
