As A Landlord, Do I Have To Replace Pet Stained Carpet Before My Next Tenant Moves In?

I’m in California and am wondering what the protocol is for getting a property ready for another renter when the previous renter had a large inside dog. There are a few pet stains on the carpet which could probably be steam cleaned. However, I’ve heard that when you do that, you run the chance of bringing the stain to the surface and locking the odor into the carpet and padding. Therefore I’m curious if replacing the carpet is required or at least recommended. If so, should I only replace the obviously affected areas or should I replace it all?

How To Clean Really Stained Carpet?

I have very light beige carpet that is stained and it is an older carpet (was like this when we moved in) I thought about bleaching it with my steam cleaner, but I worry that it will rot the carpet, we do plan on replacing it when we can afford it. I was recently told that you could use pine-sol and it would pick up the stain and not rot your carpet, curious as to if anyone has tried this, and I am open for suggestions.

How Do You Clean A Carpet That Was Stained By The Dye Of The Legs Of A New Furniture?

We tried SpotShot, bleach and various off-the-shelf carpet cleaners (Pet Stain removal, etc.) with no success. The light-yellow stains left by the furniture wood legs on the light cream-colored carpet have not faded a bit after all those products.
