Maybe a simple carpet rake would be good to use to get up all the pet hair before using a vacuum cleaner. They have straight short nylon bristles and get everything that's not stuck to a rug or carpeting. Carpet rakes don't stop working and they're fast and lightweight. I've had mine since the 1980s.
