1. A portable paw cleaner you most definitely need if your pup seems to go out of their way to find mud when you're out on a walk and then won't sit still while you try to towel them off. Just fill this cleaner with water and dunk their paw in, and the silicone bristles will do all the hard work for you and get the mud off.
No more muddy pawprints showing up all over your home!
Promising review: "This product is genius!! So easy to use! Sooo easy to clean. It’s the most simple-looking thing but so effective. We had nothing but mud in our backyard and taking dogs out when rained was a chore, and we would dread seeing rain. This product made it just like any other outside break. If you have any doubts, I myself swear by this product. We have three different-sized dogs, so we went with the bigger one for our boxer, and it works perfectly fine for our little corgi and even our lab mix. I keep a towel near the back door so after we use the cleaner I dry off with the towel and pups are good to go to roam the house." –Beth Torres

2. A TubShroom designed to catch all the hair that comes off your pet when you give them a bath in your tub. You'll avoid having to call a plumber to unclog your drains. And as a bonus, it'll catch your hair in the shower as well!
Promising review: "I shower my dogs in the tub, and this makes it really easy to clean out the dog hair. It doesn't just stop the dog hair from going down the drain but it also lets the water continue to drain while collecting loads of dog hair. When my dog is shedding, I do have to pull it out to clean twice but that beats having to grab clumps of fur from the top of the drain every few seconds" —EV
Get it from Amazon for $11 (available in six colors).
3. A cleaning magnet here to make one of the more annoying tasks easier because your fish deserve a nice, clean home to live in. You can attach the magnet to the side of the tank and move it around from the outside to help remove algae buildup and keep the tank clean so your fish don't plan their escape back to the ocean a la Finding Nemo. 🐡
Each cleaning magnet comes with one pad for glass aquariums and one pad for acrylic aquariums.
Promising reviews: "This product is genius. I hated scrubbing the inside of my tank. You can never get the proper leverage, not to mention the mess it makes with the water splashing around. This product was easy to use. It is easy to shift around corners, and it did the job. I even dropped it once and was able to teenage the magnet from outside. Amazing product." —LR
"All the time I spent with a long-handled brush scaring my fish while I scrubbed away at the walls of the tank, and never once did I think of making something like this. This is incredible! I used to let my tank get a lot dirtier than it should have been because cleaning it was such a messy, time-consuming chore. I saw this while I was looking for a tank to get my daughter's beta fish, and it looked like such a good idea, I thought there couldn't be any harm in spending a few bucks to try it out. IT. WORKS. In less than five minutes, I had every surface of the tank scrubbed clean, and I didn't have to get my hands in the tank, didn't have to scrub for half an hour with a sponge on a long handle, and didn't spill water all over the counter. The difference in just one pass was like night and day. Now a couple of hours later (giving the filter a chance to get rid of the stuff that ended up in the water) and the tank is crystal clear. It's so easy and quick, I'll end up cleaning more often, and the tank won't end up the way it did before. I 100% recommend this." —Jack H
Get it from Amazon for $7.58+ (available in four sizes).
4. A Chom Chom pet hair remover for anyone who can't seem to escape the loads of pet hair that end up covering their furniture. Seriously, sometimes it feels like they lose every single hair on their body every day. Simply roll it on the upholstery, and it will grab every last strand.
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Jenae Sitzes says: "I've been using the ChomChom for quite a while now, but I took the photos above to show just how quick, easy, and effective this roller is. It took 10 seconds to rid my velvet couch ottoman (yes, velvet...a terrible cat owner choice, I know) of the hair my two gray kitties are constantly leaving everywhere. It takes a bit of practice to get the hang of using this roller — at first, I thought you only brushed down in one direction, and was confused why it wasn't picking up hair. It's important to do a push-and-pull brushing in *both* directions so it actually pulls the hair inside, which does require you to apply a bit of pressure. Afterward, you'll just dump out the hair that's been trapped inside."
Promising review: "This is a genius invention. We have two little white cats who shed all over everything, and with this tool, I can quickly wipe our ottomans and barrel chairs clean of cat hair and keep reusing it. Lint rollers are great for my own clothes, but not so great for upholstered furniture. Highly effective and definitely recommend." —Literary Mama
Get it from Amazon for $21.99+ (available in three colors).
5. A stain- and odor-eliminating spray that provides a quick one-two punch to not only remove the spots but also smells that may have ended up in your carpet from your furry friends. It lifts away dirt and grime while releasing enzymes to break down the odors.
Promising review: "I would highly recommend this product! It's a game-changer for pet owners like me. Not only is it safe for our furry friends and kids, but it's also certified gentle and safe. Plus, the enzyme activation is a genius touch. Say goodbye to those stubborn stains and odors! This stain and odor eliminator is like a superhero for your home, rescuing your carpets from the clutches of pet accidents. It's easy to use and incredibly effective. I've tried countless products before stumbling upon this gem, and nothing even comes close. Trust me, you won't regret giving it a try!" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $19.31.

6. Or an Angry Orange stain remover made to break down all other kinds of stains *and* odor — even if they've been baked into your carpet for a long time. The enzyme-active cleaner can tackle those accidents on most surfaces, including carpets, tile, concrete, fabric, and more. Plus, it leaves a nice citrus smell behind.
Promising review: "This stuff is amazing! I will never look for another pet stain remover again; this is it. My ride or die. I’ve tried a ton of different products to remove stains and odor but none of them worked as well as this stuff. The stain in that photo (above) was here since we moved into our new house so she was pretty baked in. I was sure it wasn’t going anywhere. But this stuff took it right out! My dog has also added a few new stains of his own to the carpet and this has gotten every single one out. 10/10 recommend." —Tara
Get it from Amazon for $19.96.
7. A portable pooper scooper that attaches right to the leash and gives you a super easy way to pick up poop during your walk without *actually* having to pick up poop on your walk. Plus, the back adjusts to fit whatever size you need, and it has a waste bag compartment in it, making it simple to transfer to the bag and into the nearest trashcan.
DogBuddy is a small business creating pooper scoopers, dog bowls, and mats.
Promising review: "Genius item and a must-have! I purchased the larger pink one, and first of all, it’s adorable, and I don’t mind carrying my pup's poop around now. It allows for easy pickup without having to touch the waste. You pick up, tie off the bag, and conceal it in the carrier. I find it also hides the odor as well. The pics show you can latch this to the leash, but it is a bit bulky to attach to the leash and is easier to just carry or attach to a belt loop. Don’t hesitate to purchase this item!" —ed
Get it from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in two sizes and four colors).
8. A waterproof backseat cover here to protect your car from all the dirt and hair that comes with traveling with your pooch. It easily slips over the seats and gives them a place to comfortably hang out on your journey.
Promising review: "This works great for my three little dogs while traveling, and saves my seats from having fur and dirt. When not using, I just fold it up and store it in the trunk. Putting it back in the rear seat is super fast and easy." —Heather W.
Get it from Amazon for $23.99+ (available in six colors and two sizes).
9. And a portable car vacuum because even with a cover, hair may still end up all over the backseat. This is the quickest and easiest way to clean up any hair, mud, or dirt after you take your pup to the dog park. The vacuum is only 2.4 lbs, comes with three different-sized attachments, and is cordless.
Promising review: "Let's be honest, I was skeptical of how well this car vacuum would work for this cost. The suction power, the attachments, and the length of the cord all were surprising. This worked as well, if not better, than the high-powered vacuums at the do-it-yourself car washing station. I was impressed by the amount of dog hair it removed with the bristle brush attachment. I also love the carrying case that it comes with. It's in the back of my Jeep at all times!" —Linda Thompson
Get it from Amazon for $51.99 (available in four styles).

10. And an all-purpose car upholstery cleaner to continue the car cleaning and help you get any set-in stains from mud or other elements that have made their way into your car. This all-purpose cleaner is your ~solution~ to returning your car to the pristine look it had before your dog stepped foot in it.
Promising review: "This stuff is amazing. It's basically magic. My boyfriend has 2 dogs that he transports all the time to and from the dog park in the back seat (his car is cloth), and even though he has a dog seat protector his seats get nasty. We tried baking soda and vinegar and that just made the seat white and didn't get the stain out. I bought this cleaner because the reviews were good, and it had a great price, and IT WAS AMAZING! We did one round of spraying it and just scrubbing the cloth with a brush and the nasty stains were 90% removed. We could have gone back again and probably gotten it all the way out, but it was still a huge improvement. I used this in my car too on the dash and leather seats, and it also works well! It has a nice scent to it — not super strong but just a clean smell. I'll definitely be buying again." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $16.97+ (available in two sizes).
11. A double-layered litter mat you can place right outside the litter box so the honeycomb design will catch and trap the litter that makes its way out of the box when your cat leaves. Then, you can just press on the side to open the mat and dump the litter back into the box or into the trash. Your whole home will feel and look cleaner.
BuzzFeed Shopping editor Jenae Sitzes says: "I've been using this trapper mat for months now, and while it's pretty much impossible to eliminate all litter from your home if you own even one cat, let alone multiple, this mat has made keeping the floor of my litter box room MUCH more manageable. Unlike other mats, where the litter just kind of sits on top and eventually gets kicked elsewhere, this mat is designed so that the litter falls through the holes and stays inside the mat until you're ready to dump it. It's made out of an EVA material that's supposed to be gentle enough for cat paws, and my two kitties don't seem to have a problem walking on it. I *highly* recommend getting the larger 30-by-24-inch mat to extend the coverage area — I initially got the smaller one but went back for the larger size, and it's perfect. Note that the mat will probably have a fold down the middle when it first arrives, but just give it some time and weigh it down with something if needed; it'll lay flat."
Promising review: "This thing sorts the litter, and it drops inside. It opens on one end like a pillowcase, and you can just shake the litter into a can, and it’s almost hands-free. The litter area looks 100 times better! Genius!" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $14.89+ (available in two sizes, three colors, and also two packs).
12. A Bissell multi-purpose portable cleaner pretty much guaranteed to gross you out because of all the dirt and gunk it will pull out from the furniture and upholstery in your home. Reviewers with kids and pets have used this to save their couches, rugs, stairs, car seats, and more.
Promising review: "This cleaned the biggest mess I’ve ever seen. I’ll spare you the details. Let’s just say our dog was very sick. All over the closet carpet. I used my Little Green Carpet Cleaner with the stain cleaner that was included and it was amazing. The carpet is clean and looks brand new. I love this thing! It’s powerful and easy to use. Thank goodness I had this cleaner when I desperately needed it. It exceeded all of my expectations." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $98.
13. A sludge destroyer designed to break down waste, sludge, and debris and help eliminate odors in your aquarium. You probably thought getting a turtle as a pet was going to be less work than, you know, getting a puppy, but staring at that murky tank every day is telling you otherwise.
Promising review: "I use this product regularly to keep the turtles' tanks clear and mostly algae free. After cleaning the filters and adding more water, the sediment gets churned up and makes the water cloudy. After adding a few capfuls, and waiting a day or two, the water is perfect for my shelled babies!" —The Knipper Family
Get it from Amazon for $5.78+ (available in 4- and 8-oz).
14. A bottle of Folex spot remover more than 70,800 reviewers have rated 5 stars for helping to make stains of all kinds disappear on basically every fabric surface. You'll just want to have this in your cleaning cabinet at the ready for when your pet has an unfortunate accident because it does happen.
Promising review: "I've been using this spot/stain remover for about 10 years now. It really is magic. I've removed numerous stains and spots with it over the years and have only come across two stains that it would not remove. Unfortunately, I don't know what the stains were caused by, so can't pass that along. I've used it on both carpet and upholstery, and it has never changed the color of either. I would definitely test it on an inconspicuous area first, though, as the directions state. And it's so easy to use: Spray some on the stain, agitate it with your fingertips, then blot dry with a cloth or paper towel. You may have to let it sit on tougher stains for a few minutes before agitating and blotting, but I only had to do that once or twice. Definitely recommend." —Alex
Get it from Amazon for $6.65.
15. A Pet House Candle because even if you love them dearly, your pets can still make some of the worst odors ever, and nobody should have to live with that. This candle is specifically designed to tackle those smells, so you'll want to stock up on a couple of the scents.
One Fur All is a small business creating candles, wax melts, and freshening room sprays that help eliminate pet odors.
Promising review: "No buyer's remorse here! I will buy this candle again and again and again... OMG! Love! I bought the Lilac Garden, wow, it smells amazing!! I bought it due to us living in our RV after selling our home and waiting for the weather to allow us to move up north. We have a few dogs in this small space, ugh, by golly, you walk in the door now and smell fresh-cut Lilac, candle style. Most defiantly will order again. I would gift it to a friend so sure — that's if I don't keep it for myself instead lol!" —2XArmyDrills
Get it from Amazon for $22.49 (available in 43 scents).
And read one BuzzFeed editor's full Pet House Candle review here.
16. Or a Pet House room-freshening spray for anyone who is not a candle person (yes, they do exist) but still wants the odor-eliminating benefits and fragrance. Reviewers say this spray doesn't have an overpowering scent, so you won't mind having it in your home.
This products is also from One Fur All!
Promising review: "I purchased to use in the litter box area and love that it is safe to use around the little darling. It works but is not overpowering and the lavender scent is my favorite. I will definitely be ordering again!" —Brenda Johnson
Get it from Amazon for $9.99 (available in six scents).
17. An enclosed, self-cleaning litter box worth the purchase because it does the hard part for you — just roll it over, and an internal sifting mechanism will separate the clean litter and deposit the waste in a convenient pull-out tray. One less thing on your to-do list? Check.
Promising review: "We weren’t sure what to expect from this new type of manual cat box. The innovation is so logical and simple while cost effective. We bought this for our teenage cat. He used it right away. All we do is tilt and roll the entire cat box to the right until you hear a THUMP indicating the clumps land in a built in pull out scoop. Then roll the cat box back to the left so the remaining good litter settles back into the bottom. Then back to center. The scoop is easy to empty. We love it." —Suzanne Edwards
Get it from Amazon for $60.58.
18. A FURemover broom that works to remove pet *and* human hair from deep in your carpet that your vacuum can't reach. It has a squeegee edge so you can also use it to clean your shower, windows, and even car windshield. We love a multipurpose product!
Check out our full FURemover pet hair broom review for more deets!
Promising review: "I have two dogs — a terrier mix and a short-hair dachshund mix. I have a navy woven couch that LOVES my dachshund's fur. I have tried pretty much everything to get the fur out — traditional lint roller, those blue fuzzy lint rollers, special vacuum attachments, etc. The terrier's fur comes out great with all of those options. The dachshund's fur, much like the dachshund herself, remains stubbornly on my couch. I got this product as the new 'let's see if it works' item of the month with low expectations. THE FUR ACTUALLY CAME OUT, GUYS. It acts like a broom for my couch — sweeping the fur (with some elbow grease) basically onto the floor where I vacuum it up! Give this a try if my story sounds pretty similar to yours!" —Janielle
Get it from Amazon for $12.98 (available in six styles).
19. Or a pair of double-sided lint removers you can use on more than just your carpet. These genius devices get DEEP into your clothes and furniture to remove more hair than you might have thought possible. Don't be surprised if you end up with a small dog-sized hair pile when you're done.
Promising review: "Love this tool!!! I bought it based off a TikTok hack I stumbled upon to help tackle pet hair. I have three cats who shed and sometimes I don’t think my vacuum picks it up very well. Well I purchased this and it removed pretty much all the hair in the areas I went over my carpet with. I cleaned an entire staircase without breaking a sweat using this tool and it picks up so much hair!!" —Kymberlianne Brackins
Get it from Amazon for $7.99.
20. A Shark robot vacuum guaranteed to make you feel like you're living in the future because it will vacuum all the hair up for you. Yeah, you heard that right. Cross vacuuming off your to-do list because this gadget's got it covered.
Promising review: "I absolutely love my Shark robot vacuum. It saves me so much time and works great. With two dogs, three cats, and kids, my floors were always a mess. I run this twice a day and my floors look great, and I haven't had to get my regular vacuum out since I have had it. I have one high-pile rug that it may not get all the dog hair out of it, but it works wonders on my hardwood floors. Also, I love how it fits in small places like under the bathroom vanity and side tables where my other vacuum could not. My only regret is not buying two of them (one for each floor) when they were on sale. Do yourself a favor and order this!! 10 stars!" —Chad Haney
Get it from Amazon for $179.99+ (available in three colors).
21. A grooming tool attachment actually designed to fit right on your Dyson vacuum so you essentially skip a step when getting all those pesky hairs off your pup. Instead of brushing the loose hairs into a pile on the ground (and causing the allergens to fly around the room), the hair goes straight into the vacuum and into the trash.
This attachment fits most Dyson models. You can see the full list it works with on the listing page.
Get it from Dyson for $69.99.
22. An eye wash to remove any crustiness and goop from the corner of your pet's eyes. Reviewers say this works great for any pet who gets eye infections.
Promising review: "Oscar gets really bad infections around his right eye; it causes his whole area to get red and crusted up. We tried this, and it worked great! Even after the first use we could see a big difference. I don't use it as directed, maybe once a day but it still works great. I will absolutely buy it again. P.S. forgive the before pic (left); he was helping me size baby hats I was making. No cats were tortured; he just acts like he was." —April Mcleod
Get it from Amazon for $9.99.
23. A touchless stationary vacuum here to revolutionize the way you sweep all the hair that accumulates on your floor because you'll never have to deal with a flimsy dustpan again. All you have to do is sweep the debris toward the vacuum, and it will instantly suck it up for you. Genius!
An indicator light will turn on to let you know that the canister is full, and then you can remove the canister and dump the debris in the trash.
Promising review: "I saw it on Tiktok and knew I had to have one. I hate cleaning but get annoyed with the clumps of dog hair and bits of things on my kitchen floor. I usually just vacuum my tile with the vacuum, which is a pain. This thing is so easy to just sweep things into, and it sucks them right up. Sure, it's more expensive than my actual vacuum, but I've only had it three days and have used it two times." —AC
Get it from Amazon for $149+ (available in seven colors).
24. An LED black light to help ~illuminate~ any pet messes you may have missed but can def smell in your house. Reviewers say it's worth the money because it will show you where the spots are that you can't see with your naked eye.
It also comes with a pair of protective glasses.
Promising review: "Pet owners everywhere fear their little Fifi or Fido will secretly find a spot (or two or three) where they do their business when either no one is looking or it is raining and they don't want to wade out into the mess. Even the most watchful owner cannot be 100% observant 24 hours a day. Finding the puddle in the house is obvious, but what about the ones you didn't see in moist form? This black light is the perfect solution. It is sturdily built of hefty anodized aluminum and the 100 LEDs produce a wide beam of bright black light (obviously best seen in a darker environment). Ewwwwww I found the spots and have a doggy under tighter scrutiny. Don't go into any hotel with this light unless you want to become a germaphobe. OMG, it is EVERYWHERE. Double ewwww. Great light." —Chuck & Karen
Get it from Amazon for $19.99.
25. A Litter Genie litter disposal system because your fur baby deserves all the same cool gadgets as a real baby does. Okay...maybe not all of them, but this one is super helpful! If you live in a walkup or just don't want to empty the litter box every day, all you have to do is scoop the waste into the pail, and it will completely lock in the odor. That way, you can go a few days without having to take the litter to the trash and your home won't stink.
It can hold up to 14 days of cat litter for one cat, so you may fill it up quicker depending on how many kitties you have.
Promising review: "This is genius. Totally improved the quality of our lives. We have two kitties — well, one big chubster and a skinny lady kitty. Two litter boxes in a 600-sq.-ft. house, OK? We were able to keep the smell MOSTLY in the laundry room by keeping the boxes in there, but dear the lord almighty when I need to do laundry!! And my man cleans them out mostly every day. We put this puppy between the boxes — and now I don't have to hear him griping every morning while he carries the kitchen trashcan in there, and it's all clumps AND stinky. In fact, we've had this maybe four months, and after his initial excitement of getting this...I haven't heard a peep about it — it's like magic. Surely our house had been reeking, and we didn't know. Hello, fresh clean air!! Kitties are happy, too. You know they can't smell it because the boxes are on either side of it, and they use it all day. Thank you!" —bange k.
Get it from Amazon for $27.39. You can also get liner refills from Amazon for $22.44.
26. A grooming glove that'll essentially trick your pet into thinking you're giving them some love, when in fact, you're removing all the loose hair so it doesn't end up in piles around your house.
BuzzFeed Shopping contributer AnaMaria Glavan says: "My dog is perfect in every way, but he has recently started to shed, and I am finding that all my clothes are covered in his fur. (According to his vet, it’s common for Frenchies to go through more shedding in the fall and spring to make way for a new ~seasonally appropriate~ coat.) I had seen this pet-grooming glove all over the internet, so I figured I’d give it a try. And boy oh good boy, it genuinely works.
"The glove is super comfortable and using it couldn’t be more foolproof: just put it on and run your hands through your pet’s fur. That’s it! The silicone grooves pick up so much fur with ease. Like, my dog looks close to hairless. HOW is he shedding so much!?!? After a few runs, I found that I would have to remove fur from the glove before continuing (you can pick up the fur with your other hand or run the glove under water — either works) but it’s no biggie. The silicone actually makes it really easy to keep this clean.
"We got Rockie when he was 5, and he’d been riddled with skin issues and allergies, so I was pretty nervous to use anything that could potentially aggravate his conditions. However! Not only does this *not* bother his skin, but he...loves this. A lot. He starts snoring after exactly two run-throughs on his back. Also, his coat looks SO shiny after each use! TL;DR: this is one of those inexpensive add-ons that any pet owner should have on hand."
Get it from Amazon for $7.99.
27. A medicated dog shampoo formulated with a pH balance to help any dog suffering from a wide variety of skin issues be more comfortable. This shampoo can help with rashes, bald spots, dry skin, and an inflamed scalp. It'll keep their coat looking nice and shiny and may even prevent excess shedding.
For best results, use the shampoo two to three times a week at first, and then decrease use as skin improves.
Promising reviews: "My labrador mix used to shed to no end, and I've tried every product you can think of. Nothing worked until I used this shampoo combined with the company's hot spot treatment. He still sheds but it's much less and easier on my vacuum cleaner." —Miya
"This is a great product!! It's saved me a lot of money by not having to take my dogs to the vet. I have to wash them frequently or they break out with their allergies. It's very economical compared to paying $40 for the vet to give one of my dogs shots. The only thing that I don't like is the tar smell, but I can deal with it. I have bought this product again and will continue to do so." —Andy
Get it from Amazon for $8.96.
28. Some Bissell Stomp 'N Go pads reviewers swear are super easy to use because as the name says, all you have to do is "stomp and go." The pad will basically work magic on the stain, so you won't even know where your pet had their accident anymore.
Plus, not only do these work on pet stains, but they're also great at removing wine, soda, or any other stains the rest of the family gets on your nice rug. Trust me, you're going to want to have these on hand at all times.
Promising review: "This product is genius. It works like magic with virtually zero effort. The only downside is it works too well and then can leave perfectly shaped light-colored rectangles like other reviews show. But it’s not the product’s fault that my carpets are dirty! It is gross to know, though. Will absolutely be buying these again! I love cutting them up so they go farther for little stains." —Melissa L
Get a pack of 20 from Amazon for $26.11.
29. A Samsung cordless stick vacuum worth the splurge because it automatically updates the suction when you move from room to room. When you dock it, you can press a button, and it will automatically empty the dust bin so you don't have to get your hands dirty. Plus, it has a pet tool attachment to help you get rid of all the hair that's on your couch. We really are living in the future.
Promising review: "I have 4 big, hairy dogs. I have bought many vacuums with no luck. This vacuum picks up dog hair and dirt etc like a champ! I have had a few times where bigger clumps of hair get stuck, but it has 3 parts that disconnect making the process of unclogging easier than any other vacuum I have used! My dogs bring in so much dirt with them (thank you desert backyard) and since there’s a cleaning station that sucks out the debris in the filter, my dust level has been so much easier to maintain! All in all, this has made everyday cleaning and life that much easier. The pet tool attachment I can connect and just vacuum all the dog hair off my couch NO PROBLEM! If you’re on the fence, just buy it. You won’t regret it" —Berklee wells
Get it from Amazon for $499+ (available in three colors).
30. A handheld dog shower attachment designed to be installed on your shower or garden hose to make bath time at home a hell of a lot easier. If you've struggled to give your dog a bath in the past, this attachment is your solution. The unique shape ensures that you can rise your dogs whole body in one fellow swoop, meaning your bath will be faster and easier than ever before.
Promising review: "I will say without hesitation that this works very well! I cannot tell you how this made the dreaded baths for the two dogs so much easier. I used the "old school" method of using a plastic pitcher to rinse the dogs. and I cannot believe I did not find this sooner. It cuts bath time down substantially. It has two separate water comb settings. It is not too powerful that it scares my dogs or makes them upset, as a matter of fact they seem less stressed with me using this instead of dumping pitchers of water over them. It was very easy to install and has a long hose that allows me to reach all areas of my dogs without running out of hose. Give this a try if you want to make a usually painful chore easier for both you and your pets." —Todd L. Owens
Get it from Amazon for $39.99.
31. And a suction-cupped licky mat you can fill with peanut butter to keep your pup in place. They'll be so focused on licking the tasty treat off of it that they won't jump out of the bath and get water and soap everywhere in your home.
Promising review: "This has transformed bath time. We have a 2-year-old golden retriever who has hated baths since he was a puppy. He has always tried to jump out of the tub and generally makes bath time harder with his discontent. He was so focused on the peanut butter that I'm not sure he even knew he was in the bath. Cut the time in half. Highly recommend!" —DW
Get it from Amazon for $11.99 (also available in a two-pack).

Promising review: "Takes care of hound odor (if you've owned a hound — you know!). Great for getting rid of dirt and debris that my basset tends to collect since he's low to the ground. Leaves his coat softer and smelling great." —Lauren

Promising reviews: "This is genius. It's the only way I can bathe my cat without serious injury. It smells terrific." —Christina McCall
"This is the first review I’ve written that I can think of, and I have to say I love this product. I did a ton of research to find a shampoo for my cat who has thick fur, sheds all the time, and in the summer her fur mattes. On every website, this was a product that was either #1 or top 5. It’s waterless, which is great since water makes her fur matte more. When I brush it through her fur, it picks up so much hair and leaves her smelling so good and so soft. She doesn’t like feeling wet, so it’s a bit of a hassle to wash her, but compared to an actual bath, this is a great alternative. We haven’t had to shave her yet thanks to this product. I highly recommend it, and I’m buying it again for sure." —Jocelyn

34. An air purifier complete with a three-stage filtration system to help keep the air in your home free of dust, smoke, pollen, mold, and all that dang pet hair that ends up everywhere.
Promising review: "I foster kittens for a rescue, and no matter how often I clean the boxes, 2 or 3 times daily, and general cleaning, I still have an odor in the room. I got this product out of desperation. It was a good size and weight for kitties bouncing around. I am truly shocked and enormously happy with how it works! My husband was at wits' end with his sensitive nose. He goes in there now and is astonished, no smell. We are getting another for the kitchen! I also enjoy the nightlight. Very helpful without disturbing sick sleepy babies recovering from illness." —victoria Mohagen
