How does Scoop Soldiers' pooper scooper service work?
It’s simple. Choose the service frequency that works for you, and a Scoop Soldiers technician will visit your property on your scheduled service day. We thoroughly clean your yard, bag and remove the pet waste, make sure your gate is securely closed, and let you know when the job is complete. You get a clean yard without having to deal with the dirty work.
How often should dog poop be picked up?
Most yards should be cleaned at least once a week to keep pet waste from piling up and help maintain a cleaner, healthier outdoor space. Homes with multiple dogs or smaller yards may benefit from more frequent cleanup. Scoop Soldiers offers flexible recurring service options, including weekly and multiple visits per week, depending on your location and needs.

Do you clean up the front and side yards?
Your soldier will sweep and scoop all areas in the backyard including grass, artificial turf, patios, landscaped areas, flowerbeds, rock areas, pool decks, under trampolines, around playground equipment and everywhere else! We can also include the front or side yard(s) upon request. After scooping the waste your soldier will take it with them and email you a picture of your secured/locked gate to let you know the mission was completed.
Do you offer deodorizing or sanitizing add-ons?
