Living on the subfloor of a mobile home

My wife and I just bought a mobile home a few weeks ago. The previous owners got stains all over the carpet and it's beyond being able to be cleaned.

My parents had a mobile home and they ripped out all the carpet and did a paper bag floor. It looks good, but they said it was a HUGE pain in the ass and took a lot of time to set up.

My question: I'm not too worried about looks, just functionality, so if I were to rip up all the carpet and stain and seal the plywood subfloor, would it be safe to live on?

We've looked at linoleum and every other type of hardwood and laminate flooring, but it's so expensive (2300 square foot home). Also, we have animals, so we want to get rid of carpet altogether anyway.
