What's Included
What Deodorizing & Sanitizing includes.
Improper cleaning and treatment of dog waste can introduce dangerous pathogens into your yard, creating an unsanitary environment for pets and people alike. As part of our regular service, we offer deodorizing (April to October) and sanitizing options that give you peace of mind your property is as fresh and safe as possible. For sanitizing, our technician applies Wysiwash across the yard through your own outdoor water source, for a cleaner and healthier place for pets and people. Our deodorizer uses natural, non-toxic enzymes to neutralize the odors urine and feces leave behind.

Deodorizing & Sanitizing FAQ
Common questions about Deodorizing & Sanitizing.
If your question isn't here, 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.
