9 Car-Cleaning Supplies for Pet Parents

‌Interior Type:‌ When purchasing supplies for cleaning your car, make sure to consider your car's interior to make sure the cleaning products will work for you. If you have upholstered seats, you'll need to have hair removers, but if you have leather seats, you'll be able to wipe away more of the pet hair.

‌Instructions:‌ To get your car properly cleaned, make sure to follow all instructions for each of the cleaning products that you select. Using the cleaning products properly will help you to get your car as clean as possible and remove drool and pet fur from inside your car.

‌Supervision:‌ Make sure to keep your cleaning supplies away from your dog before, after, and while cleaning the car. While you give your car a spa day, give your dog a toy or chew to occupy them. With your dog busy doing their own thing, you'll be able to get your car clean and ready for your next adventure with your dog.
