I use the rough side of pre-glued gripper strips, attached to the bottom of my sewing pedal and have not chased the pedal on carpet since. I got the idea from a lovely member on this board.
If I were on hardwood, I would buy a tub of "skid-grip" that you paint on the back of hand hooked rugs to keep it from sliding, and dab it on the bottom of the pedal.
