Fortunately, there are plenty of pet-friendly flooring options on the market for your next home improvement project.

Each option has merits and demerits, but with a little perseverance, you will find the perfect flooring for your home.


4 Best Pet-Friendly Flooring Options

1. Tile & Stone Flooring

Advantages: Waterproof, high stain-resistant, and easy to clean, tile and stone flooring can hold up to whatever your pet dishes out. It is one of the best options when it comes to pet-friendly flooring. But it has the disadvantages like can be cold underfoot and drain warmth from the room in colder climates

2. Cork Flooring

Why cork flooring is an excellent choice for pet owners? There are some merits to choose this kind of floor. It is attractive, resembling hardwood flooring, and it is also microbial. That means If your pet has an accident on the floor, microbial flooring is less likely to develop bacterial growth, mold, or other harmful allergens.


Another benefit of cork is that it absorbs sound. If you love your pet, but you are not a fan of the sound of feet as it traipses noisily through your house, cork is a good option.


Disadvantages: Scratch-resistant, but less so than tile and stone options
