Our services
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.
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.
Click “See my pricing” and fill in some basic information to get on the schedule or just give a call and we’ll do the rest.

Our residential dog poop scooping service can be done twice a week, weekly, or as a one-time visit. Also, we can take care of built up smells from your pet’s waste around your patio, deck, and yard with our deodorizing and sanitizing spray. Got brown spots from dog waste in your grass? Our brown spot cover-up service can turn those areas green. And for your furry pets that meow, we offer kitty litter box cleaning too. See how it works here.
Anywhere from $14 to $54 per visit. Your price is based on how many dogs you have and the frequency you choose. Choose weekly services and you get a FREE deodorizer spot spray to neutralize odors of scooped piles.
Yes, we can do the poop scooping in your yard as a one-time service. A lot of our one-time customers want their yard poop free and smelling fresh for an upcoming party or the real estate market.
No you don’t. We can text you when we’re on our way to your home and text you when we’re done – with a pic of of the entry way to your yard closed and secured. We’ll treat your property and pets with care and respect so you can confidently go about your day worry-free – knowing things at home are as they should be.
Poop in general
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
