As much as we love our furry friends, dealing with dog hair all over the house can be a constant battle.
Whether it’s clinging to your furniture, covering the floors, or drifting through the air, dog hair can seem impossible to fully eliminate.
At Five Valleys Cleaning, we know how to tackle pet hair so that your home can stay fresh and clean.
Here are some effective ways to get rid of dog hair everywhere in your home and how we can help.
How to Get Rid of Dog Hair Everywhere – 6 Methods!
1. Regular Vacuuming
One of the most efficient ways to get rid of dog hair is by vacuuming regularly.
However, not all vacuums are created equal, and pet hair can clog up standard models.
Make sure to use a vacuum with strong suction and pet hair-specific attachments, such as a motorised brush roll.
Focus on high-traffic areas and your pet’s favourite spots.
Professional Cleaning Tip: Our professional cleaners at Five Valleys Cleaning use high-powered vacuums with specialised attachments designed to remove pet hair from carpets, rugs, and hard-to-reach areas.
2. Using a Rubber Broom or Glove
Rubber brooms and gloves are excellent for gathering pet hair from hard floors, stairs, or furniture.
The static created by the rubber attracts the hair, allowing it to be swept into a pile and removed easily.
Professional Cleaning Tip: Our team uses tools like rubber squeegees for tile and wood floors and microfiber cloths to catch stray hairs on all surfaces, ensuring nothing is missed.
3. Lint Rollers and Sticky Tape
For quick touch-ups on upholstery, clothes, or even lampshades, lint rollers and sticky tape are lifesavers.
Keep a lint roller in key areas around the home, such as the living room and bedroom, to make it easy to pick up stray hairs as you go.
Professional Cleaning Tip: We go beyond lint rollers by using industrial-strength tools designed for large-scale removal of pet hair on couches, chairs, and other upholstered furniture.

4. Wash Bedding and Soft Furnishings Regularly
Your dog’s favourite napping spots are prime locations for hair build-up.
Washing pet beds, blankets, and cushion covers regularly will help reduce the amount of loose fur in your home.
Use a dryer sheet or dryer balls in the tumble dryer to help dislodge and remove hair from fabrics.
Professional Cleaning Tip: Five Valleys Cleaning can include fabric and upholstery cleaning in our service, ensuring that pet beds, cushions, and throws are thoroughly cleaned and free from hair and dander.
5. Regular Pet Grooming
Keeping your dog well-groomed will significantly reduce the amount of loose hair in your home.
Regular brushing can help catch shedding hair before it lands on your furniture and floors.
Some dog breeds shed more than others, so it’s important to establish a grooming routine that matches your pet’s needs.
Professional Cleaning Tip: While we don’t groom pets, we can help maintain a clean and fresh home after shedding by focusing on deep cleaning carpets, rugs, and pet-friendly spaces.
6. Clean Your Air Filters and Vents
Pet hair and dander can get caught in your home’s air filters, reducing air quality and causing hair to circulate back into the living space.
Make sure to change your air filters regularly and clean out vents to prevent hair from building up in the HVAC system.
Professional Cleaning Tip: Our team can include vent and filter cleaning as part of a deep-clean service, ensuring that the air in your home stays fresh and free from floating pet hair.
