    Residential Dog Waste Removal

    Our Scoop Technicians walk your whole yard on a double-pass route, bag every pile, and leave your gate latched, with a text before we arrive and a photo when we're done.

    Deodorizing & Sanitizing

    Add sanitizing to any visit, or deodorizing from April to October, for a fresher, healthier yard. The treatment is safe for pets, plants and grass, and it only needs an outdoor water source.

Choosing a Service

Which service fits?

For your own yard

Residential dog waste removal is our core service: weekly, twice-weekly, biweekly or monthly visits, or a one-time cleanup after a long winter or before a party or home showing. Get your price with the instant quote: enter your ZIP code, number of dogs and how often you'd like service.

For odors, or a cleaner place to play

Deodorizing uses natural, non-toxic enzymes to neutralize waste and urine odors. Sanitizing applies Wysiwash, a pet-safe sanitizing treatment, across the yard through your outdoor water source. Sanitizing can be added to any visit, and deodorizing from April to October.

For a community, park or property

HOAs, apartment complexes, dog parks, kennels, municipalities, event organizers and real estate agents start with a free consultation. We put together a plan with flat-rate pricing per pet waste station, no contracts and no fees.

  • They come every week and do a great job. They let you know when they arrive and leave. Great service for the backyard-worth it with busy schedules.

  • I was happily surprised when I arrived home and saw how nice the yard looked. So clean, and that was after 4 months or so of our large dog relieving himself!

    Kathleen G.Google review
  • I feel like Spruce Scoop has given us our yard back! With two large dogs, it felt like we could never keep up with waste removal and were never truly enjoying our yard.

Frequently Asked

The most common questions.

If your question isn't on the list, give us a call. We answer the phone.

Do your technicians take the dog waste with them?

No. We securely double- or triple-bag the waste in our scented bags and place it in your trash bin or a designated spot on your property.

Do you clean the entire yard?

Standard pricing covers the entire yard up to 1/8 acre, about 5,500 square feet. Bigger yards are welcome: each additional 1/8 acre is $6 per visit.

Is Spruce Scoop insured?

Yes. Spruce Scoop is fully insured and registered in Connecticut, for your peace of mind and protection in the unlikely event of any incident during our service.

Do you provide service in the winter?

Absolutely. We scoop year-round. In snow we remove all visible, accessible waste, and anything buried under snow or ice is picked up once conditions allow. If weather postpones a visit, we do a full cleanup of everything that built up on the next one.

Can technicians work with dogs in the yard?

We love our furry clients! Friendly dogs can stay outside. For everyone's safety, we ask that aggressive or overly excited dogs be kept indoors while we work.

Do I need to be home when you arrive?

No. Just make sure your gate is unlocked and we can get into the yard safely, and tell us about any entry instructions. We'll handle the rest.

How will I know you've been there?

We text you 10 to 30 minutes before we arrive and again when we're done, and we upload a photo of your closed gate before we leave.

How much does dog waste removal cost?

Pricing depends on the number of dogs, your yard size and how often we visit. Weekly service for a small yard with one or two dogs typically runs $23 to $28 per visit. Get your exact price in about a minute with our instant quote.

Awaiting confirmation: Spruce Scoop is confirming the $23 to $28 range above. Your instant quote shows your exact price.

How often can you come out?

We offer weekly, twice-weekly, biweekly and monthly visits, so you can pick the schedule that fits your dogs and your yard.

Is there a contract?

No. Service is month to month with no long-term contract. To cancel, just let us know at least 7 days before your next billing date.

How does billing work?

Recurring service is billed automatically on the 1st of each month, in advance. Pricing is averaged across the year, so months with five weeks don't cost extra.

Do you do one-time cleanups?

Yes. Along with recurring service, we offer one-time cleanups, perfect after a long winter or before a party or a home showing.
