Weride in

The Turd Cowboy rig loaded with tools

Same day each week, every corner scooped into a fresh bag used only for your yard. Fence line double-checked, waste hauled away, boots and tools sanitized between stops.

Gate pic+all clear

A photo of your latched gate and your happy dog land on your phone when we're done. Treats for the pup if you've okayed it, gate locked behind us. That's the whole job.

The onboarding trail

Your first two weeks, done right.

First ride: we'd love you there. Show us the yard, introduce the dogs, confirm the gate plan. We deliberately schedule an extra ten minutes on the first couple of visits to spend around you and your pups — dogs remember us, and every ride after runs perfectly.

The next visit or two: if you'd like your dogs outside while we work, you're welcome to be there too. We love dogs — we just want introductions done right before we're alone together in the yard.

Every ride: your on-the-way text is the cue to bring dogs inside. Can't? If your pup is friendly and won't jump incessantly, they're fine to stay out. Shy, feisty, or protective dogs should be secured — and tell us about any bite history up front.

Before your first ride you'll get your personal portal link by text — plan, skips, gate notes, and dog profiles, all self-serve. Portal links roll out as routes are confirmed.

What "premium" actually means here.

If they ever get lost

The Deputy Badge

Six months in the posse earns each dog a 3D-printed QR name tag — one scan leads any finder straight back to you.

The full ride

What actually happens in your yard.

"We scoop the poop" undersells it. Here's the whole procedure, in order, every visit:

🗺️

The grid sweep

Fence line first, then a corner-to-corner walking grid across the whole yard — under the trampoline, along the garden edges, behind the shed. Shade and long grass hide evidence; the pattern doesn't miss.

🧤

Fresh bag, gloved hands

A brand-new bag opened at your gate, used only for your yard, double-tied when we're done. Your dog's waste never shares a bag with another property's — that's a hygiene rule, not a nicety.

🚛

We haul it away

Nothing goes in your trash can. The sealed bag leaves with the truck, every time — no surprise in your bin on a hot Tuesday, no smell hanging around until garbage day.

🧼

Sanitize between stops

Scooper, boots, and tools get a disinfectant treatment before the next yard. Parvo and giardia travel on equipment — ours doesn't carry passengers.

🌪️

The Trail Freshener

Optional add-on: a plant-based enzyme deodorizer sprayed right on the spots where waste sat. It breaks down the odor compounds at the source instead of perfuming over them — and it's pet-safe once dry, usually within minutes.

💦

Patio Posse hose-off

Optional add-on: patio, deck, and dog-run hosed clean after every scoop, so the hangout spots stay as fresh as the lawn.

About what we spray: everything we apply is chosen dog-first — plant-based enzymatic deodorizers, applied only where waste sat, never on garden beds or edibles, and safe for paws once dry. Got a sensitive pup or a chemical-free preference? Note it on your account and we skip the spray entirely. Transparency is the policy: ask us what's in the tank any time and we'll tell you.

Why we're like this

We were the customer who got burned.

🚫

"Please crate your dog"

The first service we hired wouldn't enter the yard with our own dog in it. She lives there. We built a company that treats your dog like the client, not an obstacle.

💨

The three-minute miracle

The second one "finished" a quarter-acre in the time it takes to microwave a burrito. Our grid sweep exists because we've seen what a lap-and-dash leaves behind.

😱

The open gate

The last straw: a gate left unlatched behind a crew that was already three houses down. Nothing bad happened that day. It so easily could have. We photograph every latch because of it.

The promise

🔒 The No-Gate-Unlatched Guarantee

Every ride ends the same way: latch closed, latch tugged, latch photographed — timestamped in your app before we leave. If your gate is ever left unlatched after a Turd Cowboy visit, that visit is free and your next one is too. No forms, no fine print, no argument.

We can make that promise because we've kept it on every ride since ride one. The photos are the receipts.

The app

Most scoopers send an invoice. Yours sends a story.

We built our own client app in-house — not a white-label portal, ours — because proof and communication are the product. Every client gets it free, installed on your phone like any app:

📸

The Report Card

After every ride: a yard photo, a gate photo, and a note written by the human who was actually there — how the yard looked, how your dog greeted us, anything worth flagging. It reads like a postcard, because it basically is one.

🩺

Health heads-up

We see your dog's output weekly, which makes us an accidental early-warning system. Anything unusual gets a gentle flag in your Report Card — often before an owner would ever notice. Free, standard, every visit.

🔥

The Streak

Every consecutive clean ride is on the record — "14 rides, zero evidence." It's a little thing. It's also weirdly satisfying. Billy hasn't touched your yard since, and the app proves it.

💬

Message your Cowboy

Gate code changed? Dog sitter this week? Message straight from the app to the person who rides your yard — with push alerts both ways. No ticket numbers, no hold music, no call center in another state.

🔔

Ride alerts

Push notifications when your ride is done and your Report Card lands — the "BANDIT CAUGHT" alert has become people's favorite notification of the week.

⚙️

You hold the reins

Skip a visit, pause for vacation, change your plan, add the Trail Freshener, update your card — all self-serve, all instant. And login is a magic link to your email: no passwords to forget, nothing to leak.
