   Pet rake

   Another option to remove pet hair from fabric or upholstery, try a pet rake (a brush with crimped nylon bristles), velour brush, tape roller or even tape wrapped around your hand, and apply light even strokes to remove the hair.

   Tip

   A "pet sponge" is a great option for both upholstery and carpets - especially at the edges, where pet hair tends to collect and vacuums have a hard time reaching. These sponges, which are used dry, are available at pet supply stores.
