Do I have to sign a contract for pooper scooper services?
What payment methods do you accept?


Clean Paws accepts card payments and cash only. All clients are required to keep a card on file for billing purposes. Payments are processed at the start of each billing cycle to ensure a smooth and hassle-free experience. Unfortunately, we do not accept checks or other forms of payment at this time.

Can I set up automatic payments?


Yes, Clean Paws requires a card on file for all clients, and we pre-bill for services at the start of each billing cycle. This ensures a seamless payment process and uninterrupted service. Automatic payments are set up during registration, so you never have to worry about missing a bill.


Do you offer discounts or referral rewards?


Yes! Clean Paws loves rewarding loyal customers. With our new Refer-a-Friend program, you and your friends can both save! When someone you refer signs up for service, they’ll receive a discount on their first cleanup, and you’ll earn a reward on your next bill. Stay tuned for the launch of our Refer-a-Friend page, where you can find all the details!

How do I cancel or change my service?


You can cancel or make changes to your service anytime through our client portal, by phone, email, or our online contact form. We kindly ask for 48 hours’ notice to process changes or cancellations. If you need assistance accessing your portal, just let us know—we’re happy to help!

Scheduling

Can I request a specific cleanup day?
Do you provide arrival windows for services?
What happens if I skip a week of service?


If you skip a week of service, we’ll perform double duty during your next scheduled visit to ensure your yard is thoroughly cleaned. If you’re going out of town and need to pause services, you can do so easily through our client portal or by contacting us directly. Let us know in advance, and we’ll adjust your account accordingly. Our goal is to keep your yard clean and safe while working around your schedule.

Do you provide dog waste removal services all year round?
Do you clean during holidays?


If your scheduled service falls on a major holiday, Clean Paws will push the service to the following week and perform double duty at no extra charge. Additionally, customers can move their service up once a month free of charge—for example, if you’re hosting family during the holidays and want your yard spotless ahead of time. Let us know in advance, and we’ll work with you to ensure your yard stays clean and ready for any occasion.

Cleaning

Does Clean Paws Clean the Entire Yard?
Can you clean with my dog in the yard?
How do you ensure the safety of my dogs?
Can you sanitize my yard after cleanup?


Yes! Clean Paws now offers professional yard sanitization using the Wysiwash™ system, the same trusted solution used by kennels and animal care facilities nationwide. Wysiwash™ eliminates harmful bacteria, parasites, and pathogens like Parvovirus and Giardia in one simple step, and neutralizes pet odors at the source. The EPA-approved formula is biodegradable and safe for your pets, kids, and lawn. Ask us about adding sanitization to your next cleanup!

Is my lawn and garden safe during sanitization?

Yes! Wysiwash™ is biodegradable and specifically designed to be safe for use on grass and plants. The active ingredient, hypochlorous acid, breaks down naturally without leaving harmful residues behind, so you don’t need to worry about damage to your lawn, garden beds, or landscaping. It’s also non-irritating to pets and humans once applied, making it a great choice for families who want a clean yard without harsh chemicals.

Do you service commercial properties or businesses?


Yes! While Clean Paws primarily serves individual homeowners, we also work with managed properties such as apartment communities, HOAs, parks, and dog-friendly facilities.

We partner with property managers to provide reliable pet waste removal services tailored to your property’s layout and needs. Contact us to discuss your property and request a customized quote.

How do you dispose of the pet waste after each cleanup?
What if I don’t have a trash can or prefer not to use mine?


If you don’t have a trash can available, we’ll dispose of the waste for free if you don’t have trash service. However, if you do have trash service but prefer not to use your bin, a small fee will be assessed for waste disposal. Clean Paws provides service the day before your trash is collected for maximum convenience. Let us know your situation, and we’ll work with you to find the best solution.
