Pet Proof Carpet

This post is sponsored by The Home Depot.

Lately, it seems we’ve been making lots of fun updates to our home.  One room in particular has needed some attention… New carpet to be specific!  Our upstairs media room is a space I don’t share often, but ironically, it’s where we spend a lot of our time.  You know wherever we are, our lovable furry friends, Paisley and Angel are right there with us!  If you’ve been following along for a while, you’ve seen these two often!

They both turn five this year and keep us plenty busy with their constant shedding, but having them as a part of our family is totally worth it!  Finding something pet friendly and durable (especially in a room they frequent) was very important to us!  When I learned all the benefits of the PetProof carpet collection at The Home Depot, I knew it was the one… Especially since it’s specifically designed to be “pet proof.”   It has 0% moisture absorption, which cuts down on pet odor; NanolocTM spill and soil shield for easy cleanup and it’s 3x easier to clean dirt and dander, which is a huge plus when you have two kids and two long haired pets!

This PetProof carpet was also installed on our stairs, leading up to the media room.  We knew with the kid’s rooms being upstairs and all the traffic they receive on a daily basis that this was a smart move.  Dirty feet, soiled shoes and who knows what else will no doubt happen, so I’m glad we have this durable carpet!

I’m in love with the feel and texture of this carpet!  It’s incredibly soft and the pattern we chose is very pretty!  We went with the Sawyer 0635D cut and loop pattern in the color Bare.  PetProof carpet is available in many patterns and colors – Choosing the pattern was easy, as I knew I wanted a diamond pattern.  The Home Depot has a wonderful display of carpet samples that you can take home and try out with your color palette.  I love the color and pattern and the nice contrast it gives with the existing flooring.

These two have tested it out many times… Not only is it “pet proof,” but they also approve and so do we!  The memory foam padding we chose is amazing and makes laying on this carpet so cozy!

If you have pets and are looking for a “pet proof” carpet for your home,  I hope you found this information helpful!

 

Blessings,

    Are there any more specifics on the padding? Is there just one memory foam or several grades to that? I have not been to Home Depot to look yet.

      Hi Marcie… I chose a Tempur-Pedic memory foam padding that Home Depot offers! It’s wonderful and I can really tell a difference between other carpets in my home. Hope that helps!

    It looks great! Your house is beautiful. Where did you get the small floral rug that is in the entryway of these pics? I love that!

    Great information! We’re looking to get new carpet.! Although my mother had kept the carpet & entire house immaculate!.. It’s been over 30 years & with our new BIG boy, 75lb standard poodle, this carpeting & memory foam padding seems perfect! Just wanted to say “thank you!!!” 💟🐾

    Hi Alicia, I have 3 dogs and 1 cat. My 2 dogs are a Beautiful German Shepherd and a Rat Terrier and my daughter and her two boys have a Pitbull as friendly as a newborn kitten, and a 15 or 16 year old cat. When you say accidents happen, well they certainly do around here. My 15 lb terrier seems to run the house and literally scares the “ you-no-what” out of the Pitbull, Not the wet stuff either. Sorry for the graphics! The carpet in my home is original from 1999 and cheap so certainly needs replaced. Since I was planning on selling my home and letting the new owners change it out, professionally cleaned before sale of course, but now seeing this beautiful carpet and I love the Diamond Oattern as well, I think I am also going to purchase it in a nice light color emphasizing that it is such a wonderful pet-friendly product.
    Thank you so much for all your help. Home Depot needs Staff like you to give assistance in the stores.

      Hi Jill! Wow, I’m flattered by your kind words! This was a partnership with the Home Depot to promote their Pet Proof carpet! We have been beyond pleased with it’s durability over this past year! I wish I could replace the rest of my carpet with this! I only share what I believe in and I would highly recommend this carpet! Hope that helps and thanks for your interest in my home! God Bless!

      Hi LauraBeth… I’d definitely go lighter! I regret the dark walnut floors we have downstairs. They show dog hair, dry grass and footprints. We went with a lighter wood floor upstairs and love it!

    Can you let me know if this carpet has a good tight weave??Asking bc part of being pet friendly for us we need a carpet that will not “pick or snag” I have seen carpet that can snag if puppy teeth or something else gets caught and pulled while playing. Really kids or pets could cause this problem😩 we just loved and are wanting to replace the upstairs carpet with something super durable but also attractive- hoping what you have suggested will meet our needs!

      Hi Sara… It’s been well over 6 months and I’m happy to say it truely has been pet friendly for us. We have a golden retriever and long haired cat. Our dog loves to spread out and has never snagged the carpet doing so. I hope this helps with your decision.

      Hi Sara… Yes… We love this carpet! It has a very tight weave and has been very durable over the last year. We have a golden retriever and long haired cat and it has held up beautifully! I’d suggest visiting your local Home Depot to see samples and ask questions! I can truthfully say, we have not been disappointed in the durability and quality of this carpet! It’s on our stairs as well and is holding up great! Hope that helps!

About Alicia

Alicia of Our Vintage Nest

My name is Alicia Armstrong; thank you for being here!
Ever since I can remember, I've been exposed to interior decorating. Watching my mom decorate and antique shop is a vivid childhood memory. Since starting this blog in 2016, my taste in decor has evolved to a more refined style. I've never leaned toward trendy, but more of a classic and timeless style. I enjoy shopping my home and changing things up to update a space. I love working on relatively simple projects and seeing a piece of furniture or room transform on a small budget. We purchased a new home four years ago and while there's nothing that needs to be renovated, I'm constantly finding something to enhance. I've painted several rooms, added shiplap, designed built-ins for a homework station and updated builder grade tile since moving here in 2016.
I've been married to my husband, Chris for 20 years. He works as an IT engineer for a small business. We have two children and reside in NW Arkansas. We are a Christian family who desires to live a life with Christ at the center. We have two animals, a Golden Retriever, Paisley and a blue point Ragdoll, Angel. They definitely complete our family and bring us a lot of joy!
I'm happy you've found Our Vintage Nest, where I share inspiration for all things home. I hope to inspire you to love your home, re-purpose what you have through simple DIY and learn some practical design tips along the way.
