Where these numbers come from

The 5 products ranked here carry 2,746 reviews at Target. We read the newest reviews of each product (up to a thousand per listing), kept the ones that talk about urine smell, and counted up to 40 per product, posted between Sep 2020 and Oct 2026.

A review counts only when the reviewer used the product themselves. We drop reviews written in exchange for a free product or a sweepstakes entry (0 on this page), and products that are no longer sold.

Target also shows reviews first posted on brands' own websites. We show them on product cards but never count them, because brand-site reviews run more positive than store reviews of the same products.

Because we searched for the problem, people who had it are overrepresented. Compare products with each other rather than reading a share as your own odds.

We count what pet owners report. Nothing here is veterinary advice: if a pet stops eating, gets sick or keeps scratching, ask your vet.

Amazon buttons appear only on products that most pet owners here say fix the problem (at least 60%, with enough reviews to trust it). Everything else gets no buy link.

An AI model labels each review against a fixed list of points, and we spot-check the labels before publishing. We publish counts, never the reviews themselves.

Questions buyers ask

Which pet stain remover gets rid of urine smell?

Rocco & Roxie Stain & Odor Eliminator has the best record (24 of 28). Biokleen Bac-Out Stain & Odor Eliminator (10 of 11) and Arm & Hammer Plus OxiClean Pet Stain & Odor Eliminator (9 of 11) come close, on fewer owners.

Should I test a pet stain remover first?

Yes. Test it on a hidden spot of the carpet, rug or couch first, let it dry and check for any color change before you treat the stain. Then follow the directions on the label.

Does Nature's Miracle get rid of urine smell?

For many owners, yes: 14 of 21 said the smell was gone. But 15% of its reviews say the odor stayed or came back, so it's a less sure bet than the picks above it.

What do owners dislike about Rocco & Roxie?

Mainly the scent and the price. 32% of its reviews dislike how it smells and 25% say it's expensive, even though 24 of 28 owners said the urine smell was gone.
