Pet waste removal in Orange County

A pooper scooper service does the one yard chore nobody wants: a weekly or twice-weekly sweep of the whole yard, waste bagged and placed in your own trash cart, gate closed behind them. It is cheap, it keeps the lawn and the turf from smelling and it pairs well with gardener and turf cleaning visits. Tell us how many dogs you have and we connect you with independent local scoopers.

Licensing and rules for dog poop pickup in California

No contractor license is needed for pet waste pickup beyond a city business license. Waste is bagged and placed in your own trash cart, never near the curb or a storm drain, because Orange County cities classify pet waste as a stormwater pollutant.

What we require from partners on this line:

  • City business license
  • General liability insurance
  • Waste bagged and placed in the customer's cart, never curbside or near storm drains
  • Tools disinfected between yards

We are a referral service, not the contractor. Verify license and insurance with the provider before hiring. See partner criteria.

Pet waste removal FAQ

Pricing is per visit and depends on the number of dogs and how often you want the yard swept. Weekly for one dog is the most common plan. Current estimate ranges are on the pricing page, and the scooper confirms a price after the first cleanup.

No. Most customers leave a side gate unlocked or share a gate code on service day. Scoopers text when they are on the way and when the yard is done, and many send a photo of the closed gate.

It is double-bagged and placed in your own trash cart, never left by the curb or near a storm drain. Orange County cities treat pet waste as a stormwater pollutant, so it stays out of the gutter.

No, that is what the initial cleanup is for. It is priced separately from the weekly plan because it takes longer. Tell us roughly how long it has been so the scooper quotes it correctly.

Friendly dogs are fine and most scoopers like them. If your dog is protective or has bitten before, say so in the form so the pro can plan a time when the dog is inside.
