Dwell times commonly range from about 3 minutes for carpets to around 5 minutes for tougher stains or some fabric treatments. Times can vary by product and stain severity, so use the 3–5 minute range as a general guideline.

Common options include unscented and lightly scented or 'fresh' formulations. Some products also list specific fragrances, such as lime.

Enzymatic (bio-enzymatic) cleaners work at the source by activating on contact and feeding on ammonia crystals and other organic matter, which helps neutralize urine odors and remove related stains.

Pet stain removers commonly come as liquids, sprays, and foams. Sprays and liquid formulas are used for spot treatment and to cover stains directly, while foams are often marketed for high-traffic carpet areas or where less liquid is preferred.

Common approaches include enzymatic/bio-enzymatic formulas, oxygen/peroxide-based (Oxi) cleaners, and deodorizing agents such as baking soda.

Common bottle sizes include about 22 ounces and 32 ounces, though available sizes can vary by brand.

Typical steps: spray the stain until covered, let the product sit a few minutes (commonly about 3–5 minutes), then blot with a clean dry or damp cloth. For tougher stains some products advise gently rubbing or rinsing.
