My pet family includes two dogs and four cats, so we’re dealing with a whole lot of pet hair on our floors, furniture, and clothing, not to mention car seats and car interiors. After a lifetime of pet parenthood and many years working in doggy daycare, I’ve become somewhat of a snob about dog hair removal tools. This list of tried-and-true dog hair removal tools has something for everyone and every fur-busting task.

Whether you’re dealing with long hair or short fur, these dog hair removal tools will help you get the job done.

I can’t get over the adorable design of this simple pet hair roller. You won’t have to deal with replacing adhesive rolls because this dog hair removal roller employs a patented brush system.

Verified Review: “I love that I can clean cat hair off the couch or bed with a few quick swipes and without throwing away any wasteful sticky paper.”

I love a wearable tool, and pet hair removal mitts are affordable and effective for gathering pet hair off of fabric. I don’t know what magic material these gloves are made from, but they have soft have little nubs that pick up pet hair and are easily cleaned by rubbing two mitts together in opposite directions.

Mitts are great for removing hair from more delicate clothing, as the soft material means your clothes won’t be pulled or pilled from abrasion.

Rubber brooms like this are a staple in doggy daycare for their strong dog hair removal ability. The sweeper version of the Furemover brush (above) is effective for gathering hair on several surfaces, so you can work on the carpeted living room and the tiled kitchen in one go, and the long handle means you can work the pet hair out of your rugs from a standing position.

After you clean up after your dog, you can use the broom to scrub the bathroom tile or wash the car!

This thing is like a lint roller on steroids, definitely a must-have dog hair removal tool. With a 43-inch-long handle and a giant, super-sticky roller, it works sort of like a duster, only it really traps hair. I like it for furniture, and also for low-pile carpets and rugs. Note that it’s not great for a deeper or shag carpet.
