If you have dogs, you already know what they do to a natural lawn. Bare dirt patches from running the same path. Yellow spots from urine. Mud tracked through the house after every watering. Pet-friendly artificial turf eliminates all of that while giving your dogs a surface they actually enjoy.
We install turf products that are specifically designed for households with pets. The biggest difference from standard turf is the drainage system. Pet turf uses a perforated backing that drains at over 30 inches per hour -- about six times faster than standard artificial grass. That means urine passes through the surface almost instantly instead of sitting on top and creating odor.
The infill we use with pet turf installations is antimicrobial. It actively inhibits the growth of bacteria and mold, which are the main sources of that "dog yard" smell. Combined with the fast drainage, the turf stays cleaner and fresher than natural grass ever could. We have installed pet turf for homeowners in San Jacinto, Hemet, Menifee, Beaumont, and throughout the Inland Empire who have anywhere from one dog to four, and the results are consistently the same -- a clean, green yard that their dogs love.
The turf fibers themselves are non-toxic and lead-free. Dogs can chew on them, roll on them, and dig at them without any risk. The material is soft enough that it will not irritate paws or skin, even with extended play. And because we secure the edges with galvanized nails every 4 to 6 inches over a compacted rock base, even the most determined diggers cannot pull it up.
Cleaning is simple. Pick up solid waste the same way you normally would. Hose down the area 2 to 3 times per week to flush liquids through the drainage system. Once a month, apply an enzyme-based turf cleaner to break down any organic residue. That routine takes about 10 minutes a week -- compared to the hours you currently spend mowing, watering, and dealing with mud.
We typically recommend pet turf for dog runs, side yards, and full backyard conversions. If you want to combine a pet-friendly zone with a different turf product for the rest of the yard, we can do that too. Every installation is custom fitted to your space and your needs.
The infill we use actively fights bacteria and mold growth. This is what keeps your yard from developing that smell, even in the 100-degree Inland Empire summers.
Liquids pass through the perforated backing almost instantly. No puddles, no standing water, no soggy mess -- even with multiple dogs using the same spot.
Every product we install is tested and certified safe for pets and children. No harmful chemicals, no lead content, no worries about your animals playing on it all day.
No more dirt, no more mud, no more paw prints on the kitchen floor. Your dogs come in clean and your floors stay clean. That alone is worth the investment for most pet owners.
Same quality installation process, with extra attention to drainage and odor control.
We evaluate your yard layout, note where your dogs spend the most time, and identify drainage needs specific to pet use.
We remove existing material, grade for optimal water flow, and install a deep crushed rock base designed to handle heavy liquid volume.
We roll out the pet-specific turf with perforated backing, seam and nail it securely, then spread antimicrobial infill across the entire surface.
We clean the site, walk you through maintenance tips for pet turf, and make sure everything looks and drains perfectly.
Yes. The pet turf products we install are non-toxic, lead-free, and made without harmful chemicals. Dogs can run, roll, and play on it the same way they would on natural grass. The materials are tested and safe for pets and children. We also use antimicrobial infill that inhibits bacterial growth, which keeps the surface cleaner and safer long-term.
Pick up solid waste the same way you would on a regular lawn. For urine, the enhanced drainage system handles most of it by flushing liquids through the backing and into the sub-base below. We recommend hosing down the high-traffic areas 2 to 3 times per week to rinse everything through. For deeper cleaning, an enzyme-based turf deodorizer applied monthly keeps odors under control even in the hottest months.
The pet-specific turf we install drains at a rate of over 30 inches per hour, which is significantly faster than standard turf products. Combined with our crushed rock sub-base and proper grading, liquids pass through the surface almost instantly and drain away from the yard. There is no standing water or puddles, even with multiple dogs using the same area.
Some dogs will test it early on, but the way we secure turf makes digging very difficult. We nail the edges down with galvanized nails every 4 to 6 inches and the compacted rock base underneath is too hard for most dogs to get through. If you have a heavy digger, we can reinforce problem areas with additional nailing and border edging. Once dogs get used to the surface, the digging behavior usually stops within a few weeks.
