At the heart of KindTail is a commitment to thoughtful innovation, replacing bulky, cold wire crates with the stylish and safe PAWD® crate, a collapsible, lightweight solution made from BPA- and toxin-free materials.

My Pet Peed is a specialized pet stain and odor remover created by Pet Peed Solutions, a small, family-led business headquartered just outside Houston, TX. The brainchild of one pet owner had persistent urine odor issues, who just happened to be a former carpet cleaner created a breakthrough formula confirmed to truly work to remove pet pee.

Unlike most urine sprays, My Pet Peed uses a unique formula that penetrates the stain, converts odor-causing bacteria into a gas and evaporates the fluid completely.  The unscented formula gets the job done without the need to mask odor with fragrance, actually eliminating the root cause.  

Our team is quite passionate about My Pet Peed, in-fact it is one of our most talked about and shared product at Wild Love Tails.  We can honestly say it really works, like magic.  No pet home should be without it, because let’s face it, pets and their people can get a little messy sometimes.  We have even tested it not only on pet messes, but it is also fantastic on pet and people messes found on mattresses, pillows and bedding.  

How to Use It

  1. Remove any solid or excess bodily fluids from the affected area.
  2. Spray My Pet Peed generously to fully saturate the area.
  3. Let the formula dissipate the pet urine without disturbing the area for a minimum of 2 hours, longer if more saturated.
  4. Once dry, vacuum the area, and repeat if needed.

Note:  For fresh accidents, one treatment usually suffices; more persistent or older stains may need reapplication.

My Pet Peed isn’t just for urine, it’s effective on a variety of organic pet messes, including vomit, diarrhea, feces, blood, and saliva. Because it’s designed to target organic matter like proteins and bacteria, it works well on nearly all common accidents caused by pets. To use it on solids like vomit or feces, first remove the bulk of the mess, then spray the area thoroughly and let it sit undisturbed for several hours. 

Block off the area, allowing time to work if pets frequent the space.  Removing the urine smell is one of the best ways to enhance potty training and to deter pets from peeing.  Safe enough for puppies and kittens it is a great potty-training tool. 

Safe Surfaces 

It is important to test all surfaces to ensure positive results.  When applying to hard surfaces such as metal or plastic, allow the formula to dissipate the liquid and then wash the surface with soap and water.

Ideal For: 

  • Flooring: Sealed hardwood, luxury vinyl plank, sealed stone, concrete, ceramic tiles, grout, tile, vinyl, and linoleum. 
  • Rugs:  Carpets, wool blend, and cotton (test for colorfastness first)
  • Furniture: Faux Fur, Microfiber, plastic, rubber (rinse after use), metal (rinse after use), and finished wood, glass
  • Accessories:  Pet Beds, blankets rugs, bamboo, cloth toys (spot treatment), chew toys (but rinse afterward if used on all chewable toys)
  • Plants and artificial grass

Not recommended for

  • Leather, silk, suede, cork, real animal fur, porous stone, and 100% wool rugs (wool blends are usually OK) 

The family-owned company behind My Pet Peed, emphasizes transparency, environmental responsibility, and community support among pet owners.  Their products are made in the USA, offering a quality product that does what it says it will do.   There are no harsh chemicals, enzymes, or strong fragrances.  The scientifically grounded, scent-free solution for pet stain and odor removal proves again and again how well it works.  While it may not be the perfect solution for old pet stains, it is ideal for fresh and recent accidents.  

It is important to be patient when tackling pet urine removal, especially if the stain is not fresh.  Keep a bottle in places where the majority of the accidents occur for immediate application after the initial liquid is removed.  For persistent stains, multiple applications may be necessary, allowing for complete drying time between applications.  

My Pet Peed offers a 60-day, 100% money-back guarantee on qualifying purchases of single 32 oz spray bottles and their My Pet Peed Starter Pack. You don’t even need to return the product to receive your refund.  All the details on their website.
