Pet-Friendly Artificial Turf Installation for Dogs
Engineered specifically for households with dogs and pets. Our antimicrobial, fast-draining synthetic turf eliminates muddy paws, dead grass patches, and digging holes — while keeping your pets safe with non-toxic, lead-free materials.
Why Dog Owners Across Connecticut Are Switching to Artificial Turf
If you own a dog in Connecticut, New York City, or New Jersey, you already know the struggle: muddy paw prints tracked through the house after every rainstorm, yellow urine spots killing your natural grass, bare dirt patches from digging, and the constant cycle of reseeding and fertilizing that never seems to keep up with your dog's activity.
Our pet-friendly artificial turf solves every one of these problems permanently. Installed by Derek Paglia and the Pags The Turf Guy team — one of Connecticut's best turf installers with 85+ five-star Google reviews — our pet turf systems are specifically engineered for households with dogs. We don't just lay turf on the ground; we build a complete drainage and antimicrobial system underneath that handles pet waste efficiently for 15–20 years.
Unlike big-box store turf products or DIY installations, our professional pet turf systems include a crushed stone drainage base with perforated pipe, antimicrobial infill that neutralizes odors at the molecular level, and commercial-grade backing that resists tearing from even the most active dogs. The result is a yard that stays perfectly green, drains instantly, and never smells — no matter how many dogs you have.
What Makes Our Pet Turf Different
Every feature is purpose-built for pet households. This isn't generic turf with a "pet-friendly" label — it's a complete system designed from the drainage base up.
Antimicrobial T-Shaped Fiber
Prevents 99.9% of bacterial growth from pet waste. Built-in antimicrobial protection lasts the full 15–20 year lifespan of the turf.
30+ Inch/Hour Drainage
Drains 15x faster than natural grass during heavy rainstorms. Liquid waste flushes through instantly — no puddles, no standing water, no soggy yard.
Non-Toxic & Lead-Free
Independently tested and certified safe for dogs, cats, and children. No pesticides, no fertilizers, no chemicals ever needed on your lawn again.
UV-Stabilized Fibers
Won't fade, discolor, or break down from sun exposure or repeated contact with pet urine. Stays green and resilient through Connecticut's hottest summers.
Dig-Proof & Tear-Resistant
Heavy-duty backing resists even the most determined diggers. No more holes, bare patches, or destroyed lawn sections from active dogs.
Easy Odor Control
Zeolite or BioFill infill neutralizes ammonia compounds. A weekly hose rinse keeps your pet turf smelling fresh — no special cleaners needed.
Our Pet Turf Installation Process
Free On-Site Pet Area Assessment
Derek visits your property to evaluate your yard layout, identify high-traffic pet zones, assess existing drainage conditions, and recommend the optimal turf product and drainage configuration for your specific situation.
Excavation & Drainage Base
We excavate 3–4 inches of existing soil, install commercial-grade weed barrier, and build a compacted crushed stone base with perforated drainage pipe. For pet areas, we add extra drainage capacity to handle the volume of liquid waste.
Antimicrobial Turf Installation
We lay the pet-specific turf with precision seaming, secure all edges, and apply antimicrobial Zeolite or BioFill infill that neutralizes ammonia and prevents bacterial growth. Every seam is reinforced for durability against active dogs.
Final Inspection & Pet Introduction
We power-brush the entire surface, inspect every seam and edge, and walk you through maintenance best practices for pet turf. Most dogs take to artificial turf immediately — the texture and feel are very similar to natural grass.
