They say, “a dog makes a house a home.”
Here at RAREPUPPY, we agree!
Dogs add love and laughter to our homes. Afterall, they are furry family members.
However, people often struggle to find dog-friendly décor. Muddy paws, hair, jumping on the furniture…yes, decorating with a dog requires work. That is why today, we are talking about 7 dog-friendly ways to decorate and style every room in the house.
Follow RAREPUPPY’s tips for a pet safe and aesthetically pleasing home!
Indoor plants clean the air. Additionally, their green color brings calmness and sunshine into a room. Unfortunately, many plants are poisonous to pets. When decorating, buy only dog-safe or fake plants.
For example, African violets, spider plants, orchids, and tillandsia can all be chewed by dogs, with no dangerous health effects.
Muddy paws on a white couch – oh no!
Puppies love to track dirt into the house. Likewise, all dogs will lick, sniff, rub, and roll on furniture. Luckily, chairs and sofas don’t need to suffer. Ask your upholsterer which fabric is long-lasting and stain resistant.
Secondly, think about decorating in dark colors. Black, blue, green, grey, and brown shades hide small smudges better than white or cream.
In the kitchen (where lots of cooking and eating action takes place) and living room (a busy foot traffic area) consider installing hard surface flooring. Hardwood and ceramic tile are easier to mop than carpet, which traps hairs and odors, and soaks up pet urine and smelly accidents.

Before hanging up any artwork, get the correct tools. There is nothing funnier than watching a dog get “the zoomies!” But what if he bumps into a wall? Shattered glass is dangerous. Plus, frames could potentially fall and hurt your dog.
Secure all art with screws, on a sturdy shelf, or behind a cabinet.
Does your dog love to dig? Backyards full of holes equal…dirt!
So, keep your house clean with a doggy doormat. Train your pup to wipe their paws before entering.
Cleaning up after dogs is a lot like cleaning up after children. Their toys get everywhere. Keep your house tidy with a bin. Open lids make accessing toys easy for dogs. Choose one that matches your décor, like a trendy woven basket.
You can even teach your dog a “put away your toys” trick.
Finally, last on RAREPUPPY’s list of “7 Dog-friendly Ways to Decorate Your House” is…yes, you guess it…a vacuum!
All dogs shed, even hypoallergenic breeds. A quick 10-minute vacuum every few days will reduce doghair buildup and dust bunnies. This keeps your home neat, welcoming, and full of spotless décor.
There you have it!
