I have serious OCD especially when it comes to my house. I have been told that you could eat off of my floors. I have a routine that I live by. I have my children and hubby on this schedule w/me. I mop every other day, I vacuum daily (sometimes 2x's) upstairs and down. I clean my bathrooms everyday. I dust 2x's a week. Change sheets 2x's per week and towels. My home never smells and is 99.9% of the time very clean. I could not have it any other way.
I wipe Autumns feet when she comes in and I bath her every friday ontop of her every six wk grooming that she gets from the groomer.
When you have animals you have to be ontop of it and have a routine and try to have the whole house hold members on that routine because if they are not you will be fighting a losing battle.
We at one point had 4 pets 2 dogs and 2 cats. We had 2 pugs and for anyone who knows anything about pugs they can tell you they shed like nothing you have ever seen.
Good luck to you!
