Install Pet-Friendly synthetic Grass
Not all synthetic grass is the same. Standard turf may look great, but pet turf is engineered specifically for durability, drainage, and odor control. Our pet turf systems include:
Pet Turf Installation
We install premium synthetic grass designed for homes with dogs. It features durable fibers, enhanced drainage, and a specialty pet-infused infill to reduce odors and improve sanitation.
Dog Runs
Custom-designed dog runs provide a clean, contained area for pets alongside yards or designated backyard zones. Perfect for high-traffic areas that turn to mud.
Specialty Pet Infill
We use infill formulated to help control odor from pet urine and waste. With proper care and routine maintenance, smells should not be an issue.
Advanced Drainage Base
We install 3 to 4 inches of compacted base beneath the turf, which allows water and urine to drain effectively. In most cases, drainage is equal to or better than natural grass.
Your dogs get a soft, consistent surface to play on. You get a yard that looks great every single day.
Say Goodbye to Mud, Brown Spots, and Lawn Damage
Traditional grass simply cannot keep up with active dogs. Digging, running, and bathroom use create patchy areas that quickly turn into mud. Pet turf eliminates those problems. With professional synthetic grass installation, you can:
- Eliminate muddy paws tracking dirt into your home
- Prevent urine burn spots and dead grass
- Reduce fleas and pests that thrive in natural lawns
- Avoid weekly mowing and constant reseeding
- Maintain a clean, uniform look year-round
We also cap unused sprinkler heads and, when appropriate, convert existing irrigation systems to drip. This helps reduce water waste and saves you money over time.
Design a Custom Dog Run That Fits Your Space
Side yards and narrow areas often become neglected or muddy zones. A professionally installed dog run transforms those areas into functional, clean spaces. Our custom dog runs are ideal for:
- High-traffic side yards
- Apartment-style backyards
- Dedicated potty areas
- Multi-dog households
- Homes with limited lawn space
We can also incorporate decomposed granite walkways with stepping stones to reduce mud in high-traffic zones, keeping both pets and family members cleaner.
If you want a practical solution that blends seamlessly with your existing landscape, we can help you design the right layout.
Reduce Odor and Keep Your Yard Fresh
One of the biggest concerns homeowners have is smell. With proper installation and infill selection, pet turf should not retain odors. We address odor control through:
- Specialty pet infill designed to neutralize smells
- Proper base preparation and drainage
- Guidance on routine rinsing and maintenance
- Optional professional turf maintenance services
We recommend maintenance every 4 to 6 months, depending on traffic, debris from trees, and the number of pets in your home. Our turf maintenance service includes debris removal, fiber fluffing, and deodorization as needed. Regular care keeps your turf looking new and extends its lifespan.
Enjoy a Cooler Turf Option for Hot Central Valley Days
Synthetic grass does heat up in direct sunlight because it is a manufactured material. Barefoot temperature can feel similar to a pool deck on a hot day.
We offer turf options with cooling technology that can provide approximately a 15-degree difference compared to standard turf products. This results in a noticeable improvement during Central California's hottest summers.
If sun glare from nearby windows or reflective surfaces could cause concentrated heat in certain spots, we identify potential issues during installation. In some cases, we can recommend tint solutions to reduce glare and protect your investment.
Protect Your Investment with Industry-Leading Warranties
When you invest in pet turf, you want peace of mind. We stand behind our work.
Fading: A slight lightening effect can happen over many years of direct sunlight, but it is typically minimal and not noticeable. Our turf includes a 15-year warranty for abnormal fading.Seams: We secure seams with adhesive tape and 6-inch nails. Under normal wear and traffic, seams should not come apart. We offer a two-year labor warranty, exceeding the industry standard of one year.
Security: Once installed and infilled with sand, the turf becomes heavy and securely fastened. It is not easy to remove or steal.
We install systems designed to last.
Add Pet Turf Around Pools and Play Areas
Pet turf is a versatile solution that pairs beautifully with other backyard features. You can install synthetic grass:
- Up to the pool deck, typically 3 to 4 feet from the water
- Under play gyms and swing sets
- Around patios, walkways, and seating areas
For play equipment higher than 2 feet, we recommend installing a safety pad beneath the turf to enhance fall protection. This creates a softer landing surface while maintaining a clean, cohesive look.
Save Water and Lower Yard Maintenance Costs
Water conservation is a major concern throughout Central Valley and Central Coast. Synthetic pet turf eliminates the need for traditional lawn irrigation. We cap sprinklers and convert irrigation to drip when necessary, helping you:
- Reduce monthly water bills
- Conserve water
- Lower maintenance costs
- Avoid seasonal reseeding
You still enjoy the look of a green lawn without the constant upkeep.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will synthetic pet turf fade over time?
Over many years of direct sunlight, you may notice a slight lightning effect. However, abnormal fading is covered by a 15-year manufacturer's warranty and is generally not significant.
Can synthetic turf melt or burn?
The turf can discolor if magnified sunlight reflects repeatedly onto the same spot. We identify potential glare issues during installation and can recommend solutions to reduce concentrated heat exposure.
Is pet turf hotter than natural grass?
Yes, synthetic materials absorb heat in direct sunlight. Temperature is often comparable to a pool deck. We offer cooling technology turf options that can reduce surface temperature by approximately 15 degrees.

Yes. Most dogs adjust quickly and seem to love the consistent surface. It provides a soft and stable area for running and playing.

With specialty pet infill, proper drainage, and routine rinsing, odor should not be an issue. We also offer professional maintenance services to keep your turf fresh.
Does pet turf drain as well as natural grass?
In most cases, drainage is equal to or better than natural lawns because of the 3 to 4-inch compacted base beneath the turf.
Can I install a dog run in a small side yard?
Yes. Dog runs are ideal for narrow side yards and compact spaces. We customize each installation to fit your layout and drainage needs.
Do you offer maintenance services after installation?
Yes. We recommend maintenance every 4 to 6 months depending on traffic and debris levels. Maintenance includes cleaning, fiber fluffing, and deodorizing as needed.
Will pet turf increase my property value?
