For $1,000 your decision is really about canister or upright... what you're most comfortable using. And getting the most convenience features you can.
I wouldn't give extra credence to pet-specific models. Any Miele will do a good job. I have two cats and a cat tree that gets matted with hair and a sofa that gets covered in hair daily. My Compact C2 does a fine job pulling hair up.
You'll want a Miele STB 101 Mini Handheld Turbobrush or Miele STB 20 Flexible Mini Handheld Turbobrush for furniture. (Neither are really mini... they're big compared to brushes on mass market vacuums.)
You'll need a floor head that is electrically powered (not powered by air flow) for your carpet, which is something to watch for if you're buying a canister model.
My one annoyance with my Compact C2 is the foot lever for raising and lowering the height of the head. It really needs to be a knob because there are 5 settings and if you're on setting 2 and want setting 1, you have to press it 7 times, all the way up to 5 and then back down to 1. It's a horrible design.
I would suggest the C1 Delphi. It has the basic electric brush (overkill for rugs, but great if you ever have a place with low-pile carpets and is upgradable to the 228 or 236 brush if you have hi-pile carpets). It comes with the Parquet Twister head which is essential for hardwood floors and is orders of magnitude better than the multihead (I have both). It's not fancy. It doesn't have the foot-operated suction adjustment switches, and I think it doesn't come with the HEPA filter (although you can buy one for it). Because you have a furry friend, I recommend getting the Handheld Turbobrush.
All of that said, go to your local Miele dealer and see what they have. There are special in-store-only models that are usually a better deal than what you can find online. But the C1 Delphi is where I would start.
The STB101 comes with the usa version.
