A Care Guide to Keep Your Stroller Looking Great and Functioning Smoothly
A FikaGO pet stroller isn’t just a daily necessity — it’s your furry companion’s trusted ride. From city strolls to weekend adventures, a well-maintained stroller can stay with you and your pet for the long run. With just a bit of routine care, you can keep it looking good and working safely. Here’s our recommended care guide:
1. Weekly Cleaning to Keep It Fresh
Use a soft damp cloth to wipe down the frame, handlebar, and fabric surfaces. Avoid using harsh or highly acidic/alkaline cleaners, as they may cause fading or damage to the materials.
Tip: Focus on the areas your pet touches most often — like the seat base and the inner walls of the stroller.
2. Monthly Deep Cleaning (Especially for Outdoor Use)
- If the fabric parts are detachable, we recommend hand-washing them with cold water and letting them air dry naturally.
- Use a soft brush to remove dirt and pet hair from zippers, seams, and other crevices.
- Wipe the wheels with a damp cloth and check for trapped stones, hair, or debris.
3. After Rain or Muddy Conditions
If you've used the stroller on a rainy or muddy day:
- Make sure to dry it completely before folding and storing.
- Remove any mud or residue from the frame and wheels to prevent rust or wear.
- Place a clean, dry towel inside to absorb excess moisture and protect the interior fabric.
4. Seasonal Maintenance (Every 2–3 Months)
Every few months, take time to inspect the stroller thoroughly:
- Check all screws and connection points to make sure they are tightened and secure.
- Test the folding mechanism and brake system to ensure everything operates smoothly and safely.
5. Smart Storage Matters
When not in use:
- Store the stroller in a dry, shaded area to avoid prolonged exposure to sun and humidity.
- Avoid keeping it in cars or damp places like bathrooms or garages.
- Use a dust cover or a FikaGO stroller bag, if available, to keep it clean and protected.
6. Use Accessories to Protect and Extend Lifespan
FikaGO accessories are designed not only for style but also for added function and protection:
- Rain covers help shield against sudden showers.
- Pram cushions add comfort while protecting the seat from daily wear.
- Organizers keep your items tidy and reduce mess during outings.
Final Thought
Think of your FikaGO stroller as your pet’s daily ride — a little regular maintenance goes a long way. With these simple tips, your stroller will stay durable, clean, and stylish for all
your future adventures together.
