– Have a clean designated dining space for your pet. Do not forget to store pet food that is out of their reach. Busy fur-parents may get an automated pet feeder so mealtimes are fun and on schedule.

– Organize your pet’s needs and accessories in a shelf or cabinet. Remember to keep it within your reach. Hide their pet bowls and litter box. Cat owners are advised to give their feline friends some privacy by putting a small screen on their litter box in a corner.

– Keep your pets active. Give your dog something to chew on like treats or rubber toys; while cats should have a scratching post or climbing trees. Dogs love to bathe and play in wet areas, so provide them a platform for their muddy paws and a quick wash after a play.
