Living in a place with carpeted floors for the first time. What kind of cleaning routine should I have to keep the carpet clean?

No shoes on the carpet if possible. Vacuum weekly. Have some type of stain remover handy for liquid spills.
Our house is a high traffic house where we have lots of visitors as well as 3 dogs so my schedule is going to reflect that.
- Vacuum twice weekly. On Monday with a robot vacuum, then on Wednesday with a Dyson for a deeper clean.
- Spot shampoo when there are accidents.
- Shampoo all carpets once every 3 months.
- Have carpets professionally cleaned once a year in the spring.
Ultimately the problem is how dirt enters your home. Our house would be a million times cleaner if we didn’t have dogs. They track in dirt and it is just a pain to control.
Did this professionally for a while. Carpet cleaners would largely go out of business overnight if everyone took their shoes off. Filthy animals.
I’m happy to hear this. I wear house slippers, that should be fine, right?
Yeah you’ll be fine. It’s not about shoes, its about not tracking in dirt and mud and other crap from outside.
