Dogs

Your home feels like it’s constantly covered in a fine layer of fur, no matter how often you vacuum. You find muddy paw prints leading from the back door straight through the living room, and sometimes, a distinct dog smell lingers, even after you’ve cleaned. It’s a battle against shedding, tracking, and odors that feels never-ending.

You’ve probably tried daily vacuuming, wiping paws at the door, and using air fresheners, only to see the fur reappear, new tracks emerge, and the odor return. Standard vacuums often miss the deeply embedded hair in carpets and upholstery, and surface cleaning only tackles visible dirt, not the microscopic particles that cause lingering smells. It’s not that you’re not cleaning enough; it’s that the tools and techniques you’re using aren’t designed for the unique challenges of living with dogs.

Dog fur, especially in Denver’s dry climate, becomes highly static-charged, making it cling stubbornly to fabrics and baseboards. Regular vacuuming can’t always overcome this electrostatic bond or reach deeply embedded hairs. For truly effective fur removal, specialized techniques like using a rubber glove create friction that lifts hair out of carpet fibers and off upholstery. Muddy paw prints aren't just surface dirt; they often contain fine particulate matter that gets ground into floors and baseboards. As for odors, they aren't just in the air; they permeate fabrics and carpets. Masking them with sprays is temporary; true elimination requires an enzyme-based cleaner that breaks down the organic compounds causing the smell at their source.

Dealing with pet hair, muddy tracks, and odors effectively goes beyond routine cleaning. It requires specific tools and a methodical approach. Our cleaners know how to use techniques like the rubber glove method to extract embedded fur from carpets and upholstery that standard vacuums miss. We focus on high-traffic areas and baseboards where muddy paw prints accumulate, ensuring thorough removal of all tracked-in debris. For odors, our team identifies the source and applies enzyme treatments correctly, allowing sufficient dwell time for the chemistry to neutralize the smell, not just cover it up. This level of detail and specialized knowledge is crucial for a truly fresh home.

The same cleaner comes to your home every visit. For pet households this matters more than it does for a standard clean — over time, your cleaner learns where the fur collects, which furniture your pet claims, and which areas need the most attention each time. That familiarity compounds. Everyone who cleans for Broom works for Broom — hired, trained, and background-checked by us, not matched from a gig app. When you note your pets in the quote form, your cleaner arrives knowing about it. Not finding out at the door. ##

Which service type fits

For homes with active dogs, an initial deep clean is often necessary to thoroughly address accumulated fur, ingrained dirt, and deep-set odors. Following this, recurring visits maintain a consistently clean and fresh environment, preventing buildup from returning.
