I "steam mop" will not do anything for carpet.
Here's a simple DIY approach for pet urine on carpet:
Use some Nature's Miracle... http://www.amazon.com/Natures-Miracle-Destroyer-Eliminator-P-5727/dp/B003I5VTRW/ref=sr_1_2?s=pet-supplies&ie=UTF8&qid=1453988618&sr=1-2&keywords=natures+miracle+for+dogs Apply a generous amount to the spot. Place a plastic bag over the spot, and weight it down with a frying pan or other heavy object. Allow it to remain under plastic overnight. Nature's Miracle is an ENZYME urine eliminator. An enzyme product is what is needed to digest the urine odor and possible stain. It is very effective!
The following day, extract the spot thoroughly with a small carpet extractor. A small unit like this should be adequate... http://www.amazon.com/BISSELL-Spotbot-Handsfree-Technology-33N8A/dp/B003Y3AA2S/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1453988841&sr=8-1&keywords=B002KCMH6Q%7CB003Y3AA2S%7CB00SBA5N26%7CB010QZQMF0
This forum is generally for "professional"carpet cleaners, but the same principles outlined above will likewise work for your DIY homeowner needs.
P.S. As long as the condition with the dog remaining unattended in the home for long hours continues, the potential for this problem to occur again will remain. For the sake of the dog's comfort, perhaps you might consider somehow changing the circumstances for the animal's welfare and happiness. Just a thought.
