About 15% of homes in Montgomery County are vacant, and a property that sat empty after animals were removed can hold waste and odor for a long time. Summer highs in Canajoharie are milder, around 78 degrees in July, but a shut-up house with animal waste still builds ammonia and attracts flies and fleas.
The work often covers:
- Removal of animal urine, feces, bedding and soiled debris from floors, rooms and crates
- Sorting out personal papers, photos and valuables for the owner or family
- Containment of the affected area so contamination does not spread to clean rooms
- Respectful handling of the remains of deceased animals when they are found, with proper disposal

Common Questions About Animal Hoarding Clean Up in Canajoharie, NY
How should I treat the person who kept the animals?
With kindness and without blame. Many people who kept too many animals loved them and wanted to help. Feelings run high after animals are removed, and support from a doctor or counselor can help.
What does the owner need to do before calling?
Confirm that the animals are out, take photos if possible and note any deadline from a landlord, a city office or a sale. If you are the owner or caller, you do not need every detail before calling.
Does the resident need to be present?
Not always. If access can be arranged, the caller does not need to be on site. When the resident wants to be there, the crew welcomes it and works at a pace that suits them.
Will repairs be needed after cleanup?
Sometimes. Flooring, drywall, baseboards and paint may need replacing once soaked and chewed materials are removed. The team notes what it finds so a builder can plan the repairs.
How long does animal hoarding cleanup take?
A single room is often finished in a day, while a full house can take several days. Size, waste, soaked materials and odor change the timeline. Pest control and repairs come after the cleaning.
Do the animals have to be gone before cleanup starts?
Yes. Cleanup does not begin while animals are still in the home. Animal control, a humane society or a rescue group should clear the property first, and the cleanup team can then plan its work.
