Many would agree that a house is not a home without a pet shadowing your every move, so it stands to reason that home design doesn’t really make sense without a few innovations here and there to accommodate the fur-babies. For example, tired of always tripping over the dog crate? Why not build one as a convenient and stylish wall pocket space instead? From mudrooms to kitchens, we’re showcasing a roundup of clever and cute home sense solutions for your pets’ needs!

It’s important to have a designated space in your home for family members to wipe their feet and lay muddy boots to rest. The same is true when it comes to excitable muddy paws, so why not keep everything in one tidy place by creating a spacious built-in dog bed for your pooch to dry off in after a romp outside in the elements.

No kitchen space for large unsightly bags of kibble? No problem! Simply convert a drawer into a kibble area that can be easily accessed and easily tucked away from view!

Litterboxes have always been a somewhat problematic presence in the home, more often than not circling back to the inevitable question, “Where should we put it?” Our advice? The bathroom of course! But don’t just lay out the tray and leave it at that. By constructing a beautiful square covering with paneled detailing, useful shelf and handy towel rack on the side, kitty’s place of business is not only presentable but multi-functional too!

Dishes can be another hassle at times. You’re whisking around the kitchen preparing what will surely be the dinner party of the century when “Clamour! Clamour!” you trip over your dog’s dishes and send your main course flying from your hands! Well, never again if you install a custom built drawer to hold the dishes in place! Neat, yes?

No matter what kind of pet you have there is always a way to meet their needs in a stylish and expertly designed manner. What are some of your home sense innovations for pets? Share your answers on this post or over here! We’re dying to know! Happy Monday everyone!
