I used Pro Clean for my rental property. The carpet was really dirty, I was concerned that I would have to replace it. Pro Clean was on time, competitively priced and did a terrific job. This family owned business far exceeded my expectations.

Eliminate Dog & Cat Urine Odors at the Source—Don’t Just Mask Them
Break Down Insoluble Uric Acid Crystals in Carpet Fibers & Backing
We love our dogs and cats, but pet accidents on wall-to-wall carpeting, area rugs, and upholstered sofas create a chemical challenge that ordinary household cleaners cannot solve. When a pet urinates on carpet, the liquid doesn’t stop at the top yarn tufts—gravity pulls it down through the primary and secondary carpet backing and into the underlayment pad.
As pet urine dries, bacteria feed on the organic waste, converting acidic liquid into pungent alkaline ammonia and leaving behind microscopic, non-water-soluble uric acid crystals bonded tightly to the fibers. Whenever Northeast Ohio humidity rises—or on a rainy spring or summer day—those dormant uric acid crystals absorb moisture from the air and release the unmistakable smell of cat or dog urine all over again. Worse, your pet’s sensitive nose detects that scent marker and encourages repeat accidents in the exact same spot.
At Pro Clean Carpet Cleaning, LLC, we provide targeted pet urine and odor removal across North Royalton, Cleveland, Parma, Strongsville, Medina, and Akron. Using specialized bio-enzymatic and oxidizing odor neutralizers paired with soft-water truck-mounted extraction, we digest and flush uric acid salts out of the carpet rather than covering them with heavy perfume.
Our 4-Step Pet Urine & Odor Neutralization Process
Step 1
Urine Deposit Identification
We locate visible and hidden pet accident zones along baseboards, room corners, hallways, and favorite pet lounging spots before general cleaning begins.
Step 2
Enzymatic & Molecular Pre-Treatment
We apply professional bio-enzymatic and odor-encapsulating solutions directly to the urine deposits with sufficient dwell time to break apart insoluble uric acid crystals.
Step 3
Deep Sub-Surface Soft-Water Extraction
Our truck-mounted vacuum system flushes the broken-down urine salts, bacteria, and yellow staining out of the carpet pile and backing into our recovery tank.
Why Store-Bought Pet Sprays & Baking Soda Often Make Pet Spots Worse
When a puppy or cat has an accident, most homeowners reach for a supermarket spray bottle, vinegar, or baking soda paste. Unfortunately, spraying liquid cleaner onto a urine spot without a vacuum extractor simply pushes the dissolved urine deeper into the carpet backing and leaves behind high-surfactant soap residue. Once dry, that soapy spot attracts dirt from shoes and turns a pale yellow urine spot into a dark gray or black circle.
Similarly, sprinkling powdered baking soda or carpet powder into damp carpet creates a gummy paste at the base of the tufts that household vacuums can never fully remove. If an accident happens between professional cleanings, blot up as much liquid as possible using folded white paper towels and firm body weight—never scrub—and call Pro Clean to extract and neutralize the spot properly.
Want to refresh the entire room from wet-dog coat oils and dander as well? Combine targeted pet urine treatment with our whole-room carpet deodorizing and residential steam carpet cleaning.

Frequently Asked Questions: Pet Urine & Odor Removal Carpet Cleaning in Cleveland, OH
Helpful answers from our IICRC-certified North Royalton & Cleveland cleaning team.
Can you get rid of dog and cat urine smell in carpet?
Yes. We remove most dog and cat urine odors with an enzyme treatment that breaks down the uric acid crystals causing the smell, then rinse and extract the spot with soft water. Very old urine that has soaked into the pad may need extra treatment, and aged stains can leave a faint color change even after the odor is gone.
How much does pet odor removal cost in Cleveland?
Pro Clean does not post flat prices; every job gets a free estimate based on your rooms, square footage, surfaces, and any spot or odor treatment. Call (216) 524-4059 or send the free estimate form on this page, and you will know the cost before any work begins.
Why does pet urine smell come back on humid days in Northeast Ohio?
Because the uric acid crystals left by dried urine are still there. They do not dissolve in plain water or soap, so on humid days they absorb moisture and release odor again until an enzyme treatment breaks them down and they are extracted.
Can you remove both the yellow pet urine stain and the odor?
Usually, yes. Our enzyme and oxidizing treatments remove both the odor and the yellowing in most cases. If old urine has permanently changed the carpet dye over many months, we can still remove the odor, but a faint color shift may remain.
Are your pet odor treatments safe for dogs, cats, and children?
Yes! Our bio-enzymatic odor neutralizers are non-toxic, biodegradable, and completely safe for dogs, cats, and young children once rinsed with our conditioned soft-water extraction system.
Do you also remove pet urine odors from sofas, recliners, and Oriental rugs?
Yes. We treat pet urine accidents on upholstered furniture, mattresses, synthetic area rugs, and wool Oriental rugs.
