Here are some of my tips...
1. Use hard surfaces wherever possible. They are easier to clean then carpets. If you have to do carpets, stick with the low pile variety. Higher pile carpets are much harder to clean.

2. Strategically place a blanket or throw where your pet likes to hang out. My black newfoundland likes to hang out at the end of my cream sofa so I hang a pretty throw over that side. It's easier to clean then the sofa.

3. Match your decor to your dog's hair color. It'll hide a lot.

4. Washable slipcovers and bedding are great.
5. Indoor/outdoor rugs are easy to clean.
6. Have a designated spot for your pet to hang out.

8. Use good quality washable paint. A satin or eggshell finish is a must. Don't use flat!

9. Consider keeping you windows clear of long drapery, especially where your pets spend a lot of time.

10. Keep your pets clean and well groomed. Weekly brushings will cut down on the amount of hair and dander in your home.

12. Indoor/outdoor fabrics are great. Also, use tightly woven fabrics that have been treated to be soil resistant.
13. A home with some rustic patina hides a lot.
