Our services

Can my dog be in the yard when you clean?

Yes. We love all kinds of dogs. We’ll treat your dog like the special pet they are to you!

However, to your dog, we are strangers with weird tools and strange smells. So, if you think your dog may not want us in their yard and could be aggressive, please put your dog somewhere safe and secure while your PooRover technician picks up the pet waste. This will make your dog happy and is helpful to your PooRover too.

What is your cancellation policy?

Cancel anytime. There are no penalties either. Our goal is to make PooRover as easy as possible for you, even if that means you have to stop our service for whatever reason.

How do I sign up for your pet waste removal services?

Poop in general

Is dog poop good fertilizer for my yard?

No, it is not. Unlike fertilizers you buy at box stores, dog poop may contain harmful bacteria, parasites, and pathogens that can pose a risk to human health. Some of these can include E. coli, salmonella, and roundworms. If not picked up and properly disposed, these pathogens can spread to the soil and contaminate your local environment. Also, dog poop is imbalanced in the nutrients it does have. This leads to localized grass growth that is too rapid and excessively green in color, causing a weak root system for the grass and an unsightly splotchy appearance in the lawn.

Does dog poop attract umwanted pests?

It sure does! The stinky smell of your dog’s waste attracts flies, gnats, beetles, and other insects that use the smelly pile as a source of food. Much bigger pests like mice and rats can also be drawn to the dog poop in your yard. PooRover can routinely keep your yard poop-free – keeping unwanted pests and rodents from invading the place where you relax and your kids play.

Is dog poop good for composting?

Gross! It’s not a good idea to compost dog poop as a DIY project or to mix with your composting pile that contains leaves, sticks, grass, and food scraps. Because dog poop is smelly, has harmful bacteria and parasites, and takes a long time to break down, this is one brown thing that definitely needs to stay out of your compost pile.

Is dog poop toxic to the environment?

Yes it is. That’s why the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has listed pet waste as nonpoint source pollutant – along with toxic chemicals like oil, grease and gas from motor vehicles, and herbicides and insecticides. Piles of waste left on lawns, streets, sidewalks, or within any vicinity of a waterway can have a cumulative effect on our local environment. Rain storms carry abandoned pet waste to our storm drains and waterways, which can harm fish and wildlife populations, kill native vegetation, foul drinking water, and make recreational areas unsafe and unpleasant.

What’s the recommended way of disposing dog poop?

Double bag it in a bag designed for dog waste. These bags are durable and sealable, minimizing possible leakage or odor. Tightly seal it and place in a proper trash bin, preferably one that has a lid. The contents of that trash bin should ultimately arrive at a land fill where where we throw away our regular garbage.
