As pet lovers ourselves, we started Petzii with one simple goal: to make pet care easier, safer, and cleaner—for pets and for people. We believe good hygiene is more than just fresh fur and clean paws. It’s about wellness, comfort, and the special bond we share with our furry companions.

When our own pets struggled with skin irritation from harsh shampoos or developed bad breath despite regular brushing, we knew there had to be a better way. That’s why we created a line of eco-friendly, non-toxic, plant-based pet hygiene products you can trust every day—no chemicals, no stress, no shortcuts.

If you’re wondering where to start with your pet’s hygiene routine, this guide covers the six key areas to focus on, along with real, practical tips (and products we love using ourselves).

 

 

1. Clean Your Pet’s Paws Daily

The reality of paw behavior needs to be acknowledged since they transit throughout all spaces. The combination of dirt and allergens and germs and road salts during winter allows quick accumulation. A pet that enters the house after being outside will carry all outside substances onto your couch or directly to your bed.

Wiping your pet's paws daily decreases bacterial exposure together with preventing paw licking behaviors that often result from irritation. Our plant-based paw cleaner at Petzii provide daily use safety for all skin types and they remain safe even if your pet licks them.

 

 

2. Brush and Wipe Their Teeth: Dental Hygiene Matters More Than You Think

The condition of your pet's teeth extends its influence beyond their ability to breathe fresh air. Bacterial growth from plaque and tartar creates dangers for the heart and liver and kidneys. The American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) shows that dental disease affects 80% of dogs before they reach their third birthday. 

Our Petzii Dental Finger Wipes present an effortless solution for pet owners to remove plaque while freshening breath in a quick process. The product comes in two sides with coconut-based formulation that remains completely safe for pets.

 

You should incorporate dental care into your weekly routine multiple times to keep your pet's dental area clean while reducing veterinary expenses.

 

3. Disinfect Food and Water Bowls Weekly

The residue of pet food oils together with bacterial growth occurs rapidly in feeding containers despite serving dry food. You must properly wash and disinfect your dishes more than a simple rinse because dishes need weekly cleaning.

Pet-safe dish cleaning products which are fragrance-free combined with natural cleaning solutions need thorough rinsing. Clean dishes prevent stomach problems while ensuring your pet always has access to fresh water since no pet enjoys drinking from unclean containers.

 

4. Keep Fur, Bedding, and Toys Clean

The accumulation of bacteria along with skin oils and allergens on toys blankets and pet beds leads to skin irritation in pets while creating unpleasant odours in your home.

 Here’s a simple weekly hygiene routine:

  • Vacuum fur off furniture and rugs
  • Pet bedding requires washing with fragrance-free detergent during a frequency of 1 to 2 weeks.

Wipe down or replace toys regularly Your efforts will eliminate unknown odours and skin problems while decreasing allergy factors.

 

 

5. Be Mindful of Pet Odor and Skin Cleanliness

Pet odour that persists beyond a normal timeframe should raise your attention. Pet odour can stem from oil accumulation bacteria development or early-stage skin conditions. Regular bathing with harsh cleaning products leads to worsening conditions.

Use our pet hygiene products which include gentle in-between wipes and waterless grooming sprays to keep your pet clean. The products in our hygiene collection remove odour-producing buildup yet maintain pet coat moisture while protecting pet skin. Our entire product line includes alcohol-free formulas which veterinarians have endorsed.

 

 

6. Use a Complete Pet Hygiene Kit for Convenience
