What Happens on Service Day?

Wondering what to expect when Ground Patrol arrives? Here's how a typical recurring cleanup works.

  1. Before We Arrive

    Before We Arrive

    Make sure we can access the service area and keep dogs safely indoors or contained during the cleanup. If we need a gate code or special instructions, you can provide those ahead of your visit.

  2. During Your Cleanup

    We Carefully Walk the Yard

    We systematically check the service area and remove the pet waste we find, taking care around your property while making sure the yard is thoroughly checked.

  3. After Your Cleanup

    We Secure the Gate

    When the cleanup is complete, we make sure your gate is properly secured and send you a notification letting you know your Ground Patrol visit is finished.

Your First Visit

Starting With a Clean Slate

If it's been a while since your yard was cleaned, don't worry—that's what we're here for. Your first cleanup gives us the opportunity to take care of existing buildup before regular service helps keep things under control.

What Happens to the Dog Waste?

After we collect the pet waste, it is securely double-bagged to help contain odors and mess. Unless haul-away service has been arranged, the sealed waste is placed in your outdoor trash bin.

Choose a Schedule That Works for Your Yard

Every yard is different. Choose the service that fits your dogs, your property, and how often you'd like us to visit.
