A list of products that help with pet allergies. If you are allergic to pet dander these products can help!
Allergies have been part of my family for a long time. My son suffered from milk and egg allergy when he was a baby. It was a nightmare! You can only imagine how many things have eggs in them. Then my daughter had a peanut allergy which required us to carry an EpiPen at all times.
Both of my kids outgrew their food allergies but developed environmental allergies – trees, grass, pet dander, roaches – you name it they were allergic. Allergy medicines were out best friend. Unfortunately, we didn’t discover that my daughter was allergic to pet dander until after we got her puppy, Roxy (a German Shepherd). We noticed her eyes were swelling and red all the time. I decided to take her to the doctor to get an allergy test. The results came back with 3 pages worth of allergies and the worst being pet dander.
The doctor told us to consider re-homing our puppy. We decided to try other methods before going to that extreme. We looked up products that help with pet allergies. The products below really worked for us! If you have kids that suffer from pet allergies I definitely recommend the products below.

Allerpet Dog Dander Remover
Since 1988, the Allerpet Company has been helping people with allergies live more comfortable, enjoyable and symptom-free lives. Allerpet was the first product of its kind to help pet-allergic individuals live comfortably with their pets rather than give them up for adoption due to allergic reactions. Allerpet cleanses the hair of dander & other allergens – just moisten a cloth with Allerpet and rub back and forth gently on the fur. It is non-toxic and completely safe to use on animals over 10 weeks old. This is not a shampoo, so no rinsing is necessary – just wipe on and towel dry.
The combination of all these products has significantly helped my daughter. She hasn’t suffered from itchy, watery eyes, running nose, or any other allergy symptoms since we incorporated these products. The Shark ION Robot vacuum runs every single day. Our goal is to reduce the amount of hair and pet dander floating around our home.
I am so glad we decided to try different things before we re-homed our dog. Roxy is part of our family and cannot imagine not having her around. She brings so much joy to our kids. Before deciding to give up your pet try these products. They really do make a huge difference if you suffer from pet allergies. It reduces the pet dander in your home.
Do you have a favorite product that has helped you with allergies?
Disclosure: I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free in the hope that I would mention it on my blog. All opinions stated here are my own.
I have been debating a robot vacuum to keep the dog hair cleaned up in between bigger cleans. I just wondered how well it worked.
I love these picks. All of them will work very well to help keep allergens at bay. I especially like that air cleaner.
I wasn’t even aware that they made dander remover. I will be looking for some of that today.
It’s super hard to catch everything with just dusters and vacuums. I feel like having the purifier in a few rooms would help a lot.
Both of my kids have allergies and asthma. A HEPA filter and a robot vacuum are musts for us.
We don’t have any allergies here fortunately. I haven’t heard of an air revitalizer before but if it makes the air smell like citrus that’s a good thing whether you have pets or not.
We love having family come stay with us, but we have pets. When our relatives with allergies come, I want to do everything I can to make sure they’re comfortable. These are great recommendations. Plus, I’ve wanted a robot vacuum forever!
I love the Homedics TotalClean PetPlus HEPA Air Purifier! My sister has a dog and could TOTALLY use that in her house!
As a dog blogger, these products are of great interest to me. I love the host of options and that you shared where and how to get these. Pet allergies is a real concern. Thanks so much!
I can’t believe that vacuum has voice control! I struggle with pet allergies and can’t get rid of my dog so these could come in handy!
That Air Revitalizer really has me curious! I am heading to read up on it a little more now!
These all sound great! It helps so much to reduce the pet hair with the vacuum!
Having allergies suck big time. I’m glad that you were able to find a solution and were able to keep your puppy. I do have pets and would like that air purifier though.
Wow, I had no clue these products were even out there. Super cool! I know a few people that could use this. I might even need it for some friends that come over to my house.
I want a remote control vacuum. We odn’t have any pet allergies, but we have a lot of crumbs.
This is absolutely useful! We don’t have a dog any longer, wish I knew about this when we had our dog.
Our pets are our children. Mine is anyway. I would love a robot vac
I have a friend who owns nine cats. Yes nine! And I thought this might be helpful to her!
