Transform Your Henderson Home: A Family's Guide to Pet-Friendly Artificial Turf

Last weekend, I watched my kids and our Golden Retriever, Max, playing catch on our artificial turf backyard in Henderson. Three years ago, this same space was a patchy, brown mess that required endless watering and maintenance. Today, it's become our family's favorite spot, and I couldn't help but smile seeing them enjoy our smart investment in residential artificial turf.

Our Family's Journey to the Perfect Lawn

​When we moved to Henderson, NV, maintaining a natural lawn was like fighting a losing battle. Between the scorching Nevada sun and Max's playful digging habits, our grass stood no chance. That's when I started exploring artificial turf options, and I'm excited to share everything I've learned along the way.
