Unreal Lawns offers safe, durable artificial grass that pets (and their people) love. Our pet‑friendly turf gives your dog room to run, roll, and relax—without the mud, digging, or damage. Whether you’re upgrading a family backyard or creating a low‑maintenance pet zone, we’ll help you choose a turf that’s soft, easy to clean, and built for real life.
Why Pet Owners Across NZ Choose Unreal Lawns
Why more NZ pet owners are choosing artificial turf
Natural grass looks great for a week—until your dog turns it into a muddy mess. With Unreal Lawns, you get the best of both worlds: a lush, green lawn your pets will love, and a yard that stays tidy, dry, and stress‑free. If you’re comparing options, our Artificial Grass Installation process shows exactly how we prepare every base for long‑term performance.
Today’s synthetic turf is soft, realistic, and completely safe for pets of all sizes. It drains fast, handles rough play, and won’t turn patchy or muddy after wet weather or daily zoomies.

Pet Turf FAQ
From safe play for your pets to easy cleanup, these are the key things people want to know about installing and maintaining pet-friendly artificial grass.
How does artificial grass handle pet urine and waste?
Our pet turf drains quickly, allowing urine to pass through easily. Solid waste can be picked up and rinsed away.
Will my lawn start to smell over time?
With proper drainage and occasional rinsing, odours are minimal. We can recommend infill options that help neutralise smells, we can also recommend using a deodoriser to neutralise odours. You can also talk to us about an enzyme cleaner if bacteria or odour are a concern.
Can dogs dig through artificial grass?
Not easily. During the installation process, our turf is secured with staples to a timber edging and infill, making it tough for dogs to dig through.
Is synthetic turf safe for paws?
Yes, it’s non-toxic, free of harmful chemicals, and softer than gravel or concrete. Cool Yarn technology also helps reduce surface heat in summer.
Does artificial grass attract fleas or ticks?
No. Unlike natural grass, artificial turf doesn’t provide a habitat for fleas, ticks, or other pests. This reduces the reliance on harmful pesticides and protects your pets.
