Maid Service

A couple near Vanderbilt Avenue in Prospect Heights called us about their two shedding huskies and a guest staying over who was allergic to dander. Their parlor floor was carpeted in fur, the rugs held a faint dog smell, and they had three days to make the place comfortable. We came in with pet-safe products, did a thorough de-furring pass with HEPA vacuuming, treated the rugs for odor, and wiped every surface a paw or nose touches. Their guest stayed the whole weekend without a single sneeze. That is the heart of our pet-friendly cleaning in Brooklyn, where dog and cat owners want a home that is clean, fur-free, and safe for the animals they love. For all-around help around the house, our house cleaning service in Brooklyn brings the same pet-aware care.
Green Hands Cleaning Services has cleaned for Brooklyn pet households for years, from dog-filled brownstones in Fort Greene to cat-loving condos in Downtown Brooklyn. We get that fur, dander, muddy paws, and the occasional accident come with the joy of a pet, and we clean with products that are safe around animals. Our cleaners bring their own pet-friendly supplies, work calmly around nervous dogs and cats, and respect your home and your building. Whether you want a one-time fur reset or a regular visit, we make it easy, and you can book a cleaning in just a few minutes.

Maid Service

Pet owners cannot always keep up with the steady drift of fur and the dander that settles on every surface. Our pet-friendly maid service handles that ongoing battle. We tackle the shedding, the paw prints by the door, the dust mixed with pet hair, and the dishes, all with products safe to use around animals, so you come home to a fresh space rather than a hairy one. That gives your free hours back for a run with the dog at Hilltop Off-Leash Area in Prospect Park instead of constant vacuuming.
Our maid service in Brooklyn works around your household and your animals. Some pet owners near Carroll Gardens book us weekly to stay ahead of heavy shedding, others every other week, and some monthly for a deeper fur reset. When we can, we send the same cleaners, so they learn your pets, which dog is shy of the vacuum, and where the fur collects most. That steady, animal-aware care keeps a pet home livable, and you can read real customer notes on our reviews page.
Flexibility is part of the deal too. A heavy shedding season or a quiet stretch, just tell us and we shift the plan to match. A maid service worth keeping works around your pets and your schedule rather than forcing a fixed routine. Our pricing stays plain from the start, and the basics are always visible on our pricing page, with nothing tacked on at the end.

Apartment Cleaning

Cleaning a Brooklyn apartment with pets is its own skill. Many homes here are prewar walk-ups near Clinton Hill with parquet floors and radiators where fur gathers in corners and along baseboards, while others are new condos along the Gowanus or in Williamsburg with hard floors that show every tumbleweed of dog hair. Our apartment cleaning handles both with pet-safe methods, since we have cleaned hundreds of animal households from Bay Ridge up to Greenpoint. A pet-friendly clean has to lift fur and odor without using anything that could harm a curious dog or cat.
Small apartments concentrate pet hair and smells fast. In a one-bedroom near Atlantic Avenue, fur works into the couch, the rug, and the corners while odors linger in tight, closed rooms, so we de-fur thoroughly and deodorize with safe products as we go top to bottom. Bigger lofts in Bushwick with open layouts let dog hair drift across wide floors, which we lift with HEPA vacuuming rather than scattering it around. For a full fur-and-odor reset before guests arrive, ask about our deep cleaning service in Brooklyn.
To us, your pets are family, and we clean like their safety and comfort matter, because they do. Dog owners lean on us so muddy paws and shedding never take over the home. Cat owners count on us because litter dust and dander reach every surface a cat claims. Below is what a typical pet-friendly apartment cleaning with us covers, and you can add more for your apartment cleaning needs.
Every pet-friendly cleaning visit in Brooklyn covers the core tasks listed here, all with animal-safe products, and we tailor extras to your pets and your home.

Deep Cleaning Service

Living with pets, fur and odor build up in places a normal visit never reaches, and that is where our pet-friendly deep cleaning service comes in. A deep clean digs into the spots a quick pass skips, like fur woven into rug fibers, dander on the tops of cabinets, odor soaked into baseboards, and the hair packed behind and under furniture, all handled with products safe around animals. Pet owners book these before company visits, at the change of seasons when shedding peaks, or when a new puppy or kitten has left a home needing a real reset. It also works well if your place has gone a stretch without a thorough de-furring, since it hands us a clean, fresh base to maintain. Set aside more time than a standard visit, and you get a home that finally feels free of fur and pet smell. If you are moving with pets, our move-in and move-out cleaning in Brooklyn can handle the transition.

Move-In / Move-Out Cleaning

Moving with pets adds a layer most cleaning companies overlook, and our move-in / move-out cleaning is built for it. For folks moving in, a deep clean clears the previous pet's fur, dander, and odor so your own animals, and anyone with allergies, start fresh in a neutral space. For folks moving out, a thorough de-furring and odor treatment leaves the place spotless for the next tenant and helps you recover your deposit, since landlords often look hard at pet wear.
This clean reaches deep, since an empty apartment lets us get into every corner without furniture in the way. We clear fur from baseboards and vents, wipe out cabinets and closets, take the kitchen and bathroom down to a fully scrubbed state with safe products, and finish the floors once each room is clear. Brooklyn leases often turn over at month's end and in early fall, so reserving this service a few days ahead helps you hold the slot before your move. Our move-in and move-out cleaning page has the full details.

Why Brooklyn Pet Owners Choose Green Hands

There are many cleaning companies in the borough, so why do so many Brooklyn pet owners choose us? It comes down to trust and a real understanding of life with animals. We do not treat fur as an afterthought or use products that worry pet parents, we clean thoroughly with animal-safe supplies and methods built for shedding homes. Our cleaners are chosen with care, arrive when we say we will, and stay calm and kind around your dog or cat. You will not get a rotating cast of strangers who leave the fur behind. You get a local crew that gets pet homes, and you can read about us on our about us page or meet the team on our cleaners page.
Cleaning pet homes in Brooklyn comes with details you do not find everywhere. The borough is one of the most dog-friendly places in the city, with off-leash hours in Prospect Park and dog runs from Fort Greene Park to McCarren Park, so dogs come home muddy and shedding after every outing. Many apartments are prewar walk-ups with parquet, plaster, and radiators where fur and dander settle into every groove, and pet owners want those surfaces cleaned without harsh chemicals near their animals.
There is real reason to mind what you clean with around pets. Some common cleaning ingredients are not safe for animals who lick floors and paws, and strong fumes affect pets even more than people in small apartments. You can learn which cleaning products meet safer-ingredient standards through EPA Safer Choice, and the ASPCA shares guidance on household and cleaning hazards for pets at the ASPCA Animal Poison Control resource. We keep those concerns front of mind on every job.
Brooklyn also has a real mix of pet homes, and each one cleans differently. A row house in Bedford-Stuyvesant with a backyard sees muddy paws tracked across original wood that needs gentle, pet-safe care. A railroad apartment in Greenpoint has tight rooms where dog odor lingers without good airflow. A new glass condo near the waterfront has hard floors that show every shed hair and need frequent, careful passes. We match safe methods to the home and the animals we find on site, and skip any one-size routine.
Seasons shape the work too. Spring and fall bring heavy shedding, when dog and cat hair seems to coat everything, so we step up de-furring and HEPA vacuuming. Summer means muddy paws after rainy walks along the brownstone blocks and more time outdoors tracked back inside. Winter keeps pets and people cooped up with windows shut, when odor control and clean air matter most. These patterns are familiar to us from cleaning the borough all year.
The point of all this is that we are never just wiping a generic apartment off a checklist. We are cleaning a Brooklyn home that shares its space with beloved animals, with all the fur, paws, and quirks that come with it. That kind of local fluency separates a clean that ignores the pets from one that actually keeps a shedding home fresh, safe, and comfortable for everyone in it.

Pet-Safe Products Chosen With Your Animals in Mind

Non-toxic cleaning that is gentle on paws, noses, and curious pets
Our name is the promise, and pet safety guides this service. Green Hands works with non-toxic products and methods that stay gentle on dogs, cats, and the people who share their home. Pets walk on the floors we mop, sniff the counters we wipe, and rest on the surfaces we clean, so we avoid the harsh chemicals and strong residues that could make an animal sick. Our chosen products lift fur, grime, and odor effectively while keeping your home safe for paws and noses, and we are always glad to tell you exactly what we bring in.
Animal-safe cleaning also protects the older surfaces common in this borough. Harsh products can degrade original hardwood, vintage tile, and painted radiators that pets brush against daily, while gentler methods keep that character intact. If you have a product you trust, a pet with a sensitivity, or a specific odor problem to solve, tell us and we will plan the clean around it, with the same care we give every animal household.

Easy Booking for Your Pet-Friendly Cleaning in Brooklyn

Getting a pet-safe clean scheduled takes only a few minutes

Scheduling a pet-friendly clean takes only a moment. Reach out by phone, tell us about your pets, your home, and any allergies in the household, and we will lock in a time that suits you. No drawn-out form, no back and forth. You get a plain price up front, so there are no surprises later. Our cleaners then turn up with animal-safe supplies and get to work, handing your day back. Most Brooklyn pet owners are struck by how painless it is start to finish, and if you would rather read up first, our FAQ page covers the common questions, or reach us through our contact page.

Trusted, Background-Checked Cleaners

Handing your keys to a cleaning crew, often with pets home alone, is an act of trust, and we treat it that way. Every team member is screened and background-checked before stepping into a single home, and our cleaners stay calm and gentle around nervous or protective animals. Insurance covers both you and our crew. Many Brooklyn pet owners pass us a key because the relationship has held steady over months and years of careful, animal-aware cleaning. We earn that confidence fresh on each visit, and our service guarantee backs it. You are also welcome to check our record with the Better Business Bureau.

Pet-Friendly Plans That Fit Brooklyn Life

Weekly, biweekly, or monthly pet-safe visits on your schedule

Brooklyn life moves fast, and a standing pet-friendly plan keeps the fur and odor in check without effort on your end. Choose weekly service for a heavy-shedding multi-pet home, biweekly for a steady reset, or monthly for a lighter touch between deep cleans. Your plan can shift whenever your household or your pets' shedding does. The aim is a home that stays fresh and fur-managed year-round, and you can fold in a custom cleaning plan when your needs are specific.

Clear Pricing With No Surprises

No one enjoys a bill that beats the quote, and pet owners already budget for plenty. Our pricing stays plain and readable, and pet-friendly cleaning carries no secret surcharge. The figure follows your home's size, the number of pets, and the kind of clean you book, and you hear it before any work starts. No buried fees, no add-ons you never asked for, no guesswork.
Pet-friendly cleaning in Brooklyn ought to be worth its price, and we believe ours is. Set the fur you no longer chase, the odors handled safely, and the comfort of a home that is clean and safe for your animals against the cost, and the value is clear. Pet owners have told us we were the first cleaners who actually kept up with the shedding, and that word of mouth fuels our growth. Keeping an eye on cost? Ask about our affordable cleaning options.

Part of the Brooklyn Community

We do more in Brooklyn than show up and clean. We move with the borough's daily beat, from the morning dog walkers circling Fort Greene Park to families and their pups at the Grand Army Plaza greenmarket. Our cleaners know the buildings, the side streets, and the small details that make a pet home thrive in this dog-loving borough. Hiring us means backing a local crew that shares your devotion to your animals and a healthy home, here and across the other boroughs we serve through our service locations. We intend to keep helping Brooklyn pet owners enjoy clean, fur-free homes for a long time.

Can your pet-friendly cleaning in Brooklyn handle heavy shedding and pet hair?
Absolutely, fur is our specialty. We de-fur upholstery, rugs, and corners, then HEPA vacuum to capture the hair and dander a regular vacuum just stirs around. For heavy shedders like huskies or long-haired cats, plenty of Park Slope and Clinton Hill owners book us weekly to stay ahead of it.

Do you remove pet odors during pet-friendly cleaning in Brooklyn?
We do, and we treat odors at the source rather than masking them with sprays. We deodorize rugs, baseboards, and the spots where smells settle using pet-safe products, so your Brooklyn apartment smells genuinely fresh, not like a cover-up scent layered over dog or cat.
Black five-point star icon on a white background
Will my pets be okay at home during pet-friendly cleaning in Brooklyn?
In most cases, yes, and our cleaners are used to working calmly around dogs and cats. Tell us if a pet is anxious, protective, or needs to stay in a certain room, and we will work around them. Since our products are non-toxic, there is no need to keep pets away from cleaned floors and surfaces.
