change the locks.

I'm curious, did they flood the place you forgot how to open a few
windows and run a fan? WTF kind of carpet can't tolerate water? Do
you now have mold growing in it?
How much water was involved?

What exactly is "some?" Is the carpet soaked? Nylon or wool or
troll?

Years ago a carpet cleaneer told me about OxyClean. Whenever someone
spills someting on the carpet I pour on about as much solution as was
spilled then wet vac it up. This cleans stains and prevents mold. I
also spray down the carpet just before having it cleaned the cleaners
are always amazed at what a good job they did.

This time of year in the heating season, It is was just water,
I would just turn a fan on it and let it dry out. No carpet really
likes much water, but it all can handle some as long as it does not
stay wet too long.

vacuum? Can;t dry it out? Do I smell troll?
