Pet Waste Management Services
Every yard is different and it is difficult to quote exactly what the cost of the initial cleaning will be until we see the yard. You will receive a price ESTIMATE based on the information you provide us on your request form, which is subject to change once we arrive and complete the cleaning.
Dogs keep doing their business all winter long. So, we scoop year round to keep up with helping create a healthier environment for your family and pet.
We offer: One Time Clean, Weekly Cleaning, Every Other Week Cleaning, Seasonal Cleaning and Bucket service.
We provide the bucket. You fill it and leave the bucket. Place the bucket at your curb side on your designated day. We dispose of the dog waste or cat litter.
If Best of Buddies Poop Patrol cannot access the area that needs cleaning due to locked/blocked/frozen gates or dogs in the yard; the scoop will be skipped and charges will still apply.
We do not require contracts and there is no minimum service period. We request 3 days before the sceduled date to cancel services. Please note that if you decide to resume poop scooping services after 2+ weeks without a clean up, you will be charged the initial cleaning fee again before resuming weekly scooping services.
Yes, there is a first time clean-up fee if there has been more than one week of accumulation in your yard on our first visit.
Best of Buddies Pet Patrol services yards at least once a week, throughout various weather conditions, where landscapers typically do not. Sometimes landscapers are likely to come every other week, depending on the weather. We want to do our best to fully clean up your yard, but sometimes the existing conditions just make that impossible. When the landscapers do cut the grass, it may reveal hidden dog poop that we couldn’t find. We suggest you keep your landscapers on a consistent schedule to leave your yard in the best possible shape.
Best of Buddies Poop Patrol typically works rain or shine. We cannot work through severe thunderstorms, high winds, extreme high or low temperatures, flooding or an accumulation of snow. In these cases, we will either try our best to reschedule your service for another day in the week or continue the following week on your designated service day. You will receive an email or text to notify you if we need to skip a service visit.
No. Leaving dog waste on the ground or concentrating it in one specific area of the yard can seriously harm soil quality and also present a number of potential human health hazards to families and their pets.
Service days are determined by the town that you live in.
We prefer dogs remain inside during the yard scooping service. This will help ensure everyone’s safety and not risk dogs escaping outside the gate as well.
No. However, for the very first service we would like to meet with you and your dogs so that we can get acquainted, and discuss your yard and the service needs. Please note after the initial service visit, if you are not going to be home it is important to provide us with gate access. If we arrive for our scheduled service and cannot access the yard, you will still be charged for the service.
