I have 3 children (ages 2, 4 & 7), a Boxer, a Yorkie, A cat, a rabbit, a hamster, and 3 guenia pigs living in my house (and a husband). I vaccum everyday, once a week I sprinkle the carpets with Baking soda and let it sit for 20 min. I also clean my hardwood and ceramic tile every day with water and vinager. You would never know I had all of those animals my house does not smell and I don't use any air fresheners (I can't stand the smell of them). I have to say that I am a clean freak. It seems like a lot of work, but if you get yourself into the habit it is pretty easy. My house is about 3000 square feet and it takes me 1.5 hours a day to keep it clean and fresh. It helps that I am a stay at home mom so I just do things between naps.
