FINALLY a small business owner that says your gross pay doesn't include taxes, supplies, marketing, etc. THANK YOU!
You bet!
Thank you for your courage to post!! This is helping me so much. I a encourage you to let go about the studies and schooling and all of that. I have a masters degree and I just don’t wanna do that crap anymore. I want to do this crap! 💩 hugs, Girl!
You got this!
Love this video. My wife and I started our pooper scooper business about a year ago. We have 4 consistent customers. A few others have come and gone. I just lost my day job last week tho and I'm now getting after it big time! I was gonna get another job, but instead im gonna use my time to absolutey grind
Thank you!
I find it’s super important to take what could be a really crappy situation and turn it positive. This could be such a blessing for you and your family. Poop scooping service is becoming more and more popular. Best of luck to ya.
How is it going now
How's it going now?
How do you find clients?
Facebook, Google, word-of-mouth, signage on our vehicles, business cards at local pet shops, dog groomers, vet shops. Basically everywhere and anywhere.
Hope this video gives you some motivation to keep going. I’ll do a follow up video at the end of the year if any of you are interested in seeing that.
Great 👍
How many clients, please?
I'm looking to start the business myself. And you're definitely encouraging me. And I really appreciate the real and honest information that you're giving us. Thanks a lot
You got this! Let me know if you have any questions
Just got my DBA. Scoop A Dookie Doo! Dallas better watch out. Thank you Erica for showing people a low cost way to start a business with huge potential for success.
That’s a good business name
@@KroopinsPoopinScoopin thought you'd like it
I'm glad I saw your video. You have inspired me to start this dog waste business now!

How has business been going?
How has business been going?
Just started this week. We were featured in the local town newsletter and now have 7 clients.
That’s fricking awesome! I’m guessing the houses are close together, building that route density.
I JUST FOUND YOUR CHANNEL BECAUSE I AM THINK ABOUT STARTING A POOPER SCOOPER BUSINESS....... I'M ALSO CLEAN & SOBER NOW FOR 3 YEARS..CRAZY HOW THINGS HAPPEN.. EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON AND NOW I'M HERE SUBSCRIBING AND WATCHING YOUR VIDEOS..HOPEFULLY I CAN GET SOME FOOD POINTERS..STAY BLESSED AND CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR SOBRIETY 🙏🏻🍀💯🤜🏻⛈️🤛🏻
I have lots of content here, hopefully something will speak to you!
I think we all start off underpricing in business. I can definitely relate 😢
The reasons why your prices sucked in the beginning
Hi Erica, this video was extremely helpful when I first started my own Pet Waste Removal Business in December 2020. Thank YOU for all the helpful tips. :)
Thanks for tuning in! How has 2021 been treating you?
@@KroopinsPoopinScoopin It's been going extremely well! I found a lot of success during the spring time for the "winter clean up" fees and I found new leads have slowed down since the summer. I still have around 15 clients I service on a weekly basis so I'm happy with my growth so far!
I love your videos!! We plan to start this in my area where no one is doing this!!! Very nervous to see where it goes. You have shared soooo many helpful points. THANK YOU 🎉
You have to get started to see where it goes! It doesn’t cost a lot to get started so your risk is pretty low.
I know you were hesitant about putting out this video but I’m glad you did. I’m not really an employee type person because I’m a big picture kind of guy. I looked at all kinds of things like franchises and other small businesses but the common theme is it takes serious money to start any of them. This is the only thing I see that seems super low cost. I actually never thought about the pet waste removal business until I saw a job posting on Indeed (one of the big job search sites). I even applied but never heard anything but I think it was an older job posting. The position was most likely filled and they just never took the posting down. I think they eventually get taken down but not immediately. The job posting was from a franchise owner (Scoop Soldiers) . I don’t think pet waste removal should be a franchise. The main reason I’m attracted to franchises is your basically buying into that brand name like McDonald’s. I don’t see anyone being big enough in the pet waste removal business for me to fork over thousands of dollars for rights to their franchise. They would have to really wow me. I want the flexibility and freedom of my own business. I’m tired of doing interviews , tired of hard work low pay. I have been let go from previous job( circle k brand gas station) and never want that feeling again. I am a caregiver right now and spiritually, emotionally it’s rewarding but financially it’s not cutting it it’s pretty low pay
I really was, but I'm happy it's given you some insight. I don't regret uploading it.
I get the looks from people when I talk about this too! There are so many reasons this is the type of business for me and I am excited to see your videos and listened to a podcast you did not so long ago. Thank you so much!
Thanks for sharing and stopping by! How long have you been in business for?
I found ya on Tik Tok first which directed me here and so glad it did. Going to be roadmapping my new poop scoop business in a few months. Please don’t stop posting videos, love your vibe and info!!
Thank you for stopping by! I’m excited for you and your crappy new journey. 🐕💩
I’m actually trading in my Benz for a truck to actually get me started. I laid out all the tools I need as well as the pricing in my market! Now it’s time to hunt for customers !
You got this!
How is it going now ??
@@ki77erbunnigutznglory46 well staying consistent is key! I was doing it for like a month. Made some customers but decided to go another route. How I grabbed clients was making bizz cards and putting them on peoples cars around pet stores
@@newuser7197 was it just fluctuating too much or not enough to keep bills paid ? Just curious why you branched out and quit.
I have the same business here in OH my business is call The Doody Dude thanks for the advise. Love watching your channel.
Love the name! Are you part of the Pet waste group on fb?
Absolutely love the name
Thanks for posting this video and all your videos! I’ve wanted to start this business for a long time and now you’ve given me the confidence to move forward. Can’t wait to see your next video!
You’re welcome! Totally start one, it’s a great way to be your own boss.
I can't wait til I'm hitting the 6 figures. Getting ready for the grind
It’s so doable, but not a “get rich scheme”
Girl!! Iam so glad you made this video!!! My little nephew told me we should start this business and I said let me RUclips some videos and see what’s up!! Good job!!!
Wow last year i was considering doing this. I recently moved to a new city, and I am now reconsidering it. Thanks for the video!
Totally give it a shot, not like there’s much investment to get started.
Fantastic video! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge! My sister is looking to start a business and I thought this would be a great service for her. Way to go! Thanks again for a great video
Thank you so much for tuning in and stopping by. I wish your sister nothing about success.
This is so motivational bcuz if u can be successful picking up dog shot than you can be successful doing almost any industry bcuz I would have never thought that this wuz profitable should I didn't even know this business exist until like 1week ago.
Such a booming business
My wife and I are trying to figure out something to do together with our son. This seems like a good start for us. I subscribed!
Yes, this is a good family business. You guys can all rely on each other.
Thanks for the video ! I've been kicking this around for awhile after hearing your story a few months ago . My wife and I have full time jobs and we're just trying to figure out how we can get this going . Thanks again 👍
Just start small. Do you have a consistent day off from your job? If so, start scooping on that day. I’ll see if I can put a video together about this topic.
We work just a regular 5 day schedule with weekends off . I thought about just scooping on weekends .
That definitely works, you could start off scooping early Saturday mornings and go from there or pick a day of the week and scoop offer work during the long daylight hours.
That's probably the way for us to go starting off . Thanks for the info and responding back !
You’re welcome 🐕💩
I random thought about scooping poop and look someone already thought to do it . Thinking about starting one here and going into wealthy areas and just leaving fliers
Be careful, check the city ordinance about handbills. Also, Not only the wealthy use the service, most of my customers are middle-class.
Do some research and get a list of doggy daycare‘s, pet stores, vet offices, groomers in your area. go up there and introduce yourself, ask if you can leave some business cards. Build up a relationship with ppl in the community.
I own KleenPaws a pet waste company in Maine it's tough it's a constant hussle.78,000 a week seriously scooping poop . I'll give you the benefit of doubt on that but I'm in the business and that's not heard of .
How long have you been in business for? I feel like owning a business is always a hassle especially over the past 16 months it’s been real wild.
At that time it was $78,000 a year in weekly cleans. Weekly cleans are my recurring services and that is a little over 100 accounts. Since that video we have double that amount .
Are you taking it as I am making $78,000 a week? That would be cool if I was! Lol
It all depends on the size of your business, I know scoopers that are doing close to $500,000 a year in business. He’s much larger than I am, I’m trying to stay around three or four people within the company.
I do hope that your business is doing oh well and didn’t suffer much through the pandemic, thank you for tuning in and watching my videos :-)
I needed this video. Thanks!!
You’re welcome! I appreciate you watching 🐕💩
This video is perfect! I'm glad you shared it definitely helpful. You're very inspiring.
Thank you so much, glad it helped. Thank you for watching!
Love this, your really giving be a huge hand with this!
What a beautiful Video thanks for doing it and for you effort and great example you gave us to start any business 👍
Thank you for the kind words, I truly appreciate it!
Ok I'm going to break it down on my thoughts on this video...
1. I've been in landscaping and manual labor jobs and countless other jobs most I hated few I endured. But have been considering starting a pooper scooper business for a few months now.
Your videos have given me needed insights and radiate the confidence I need to take the next step.
2. You have a awesome husband and having a positive supportive cast definitely seems like a thing that's a must. And I thank you for sharing how at first people mocked you or made fun and didn't believe in you or your vision yet... Here you are posting truth and spreading knowledge and definitely good vibes thank you!
3. I personally love being outdoors and I love even more being with my beautiful Blue Heeler named " Sue".
I have a small lawn care business but here in Colorado I can only do that 7-8 months (if very lucky) out of the year the rest of the year it's a true struggle.
4. I'm in my 40's now and a young determined woman with vision, humor, insight, humility and indeed a awesome partner/Husband that obviously provides more compliments and care then criticism and disregard to help aid in a healthy way (I'm sure others feed the positivity pipeline as well.) Goals set.
5. Simply thank you I appreciate the videos you posted it's given this middle aged guy in Denver, Colorado a bit more peace and a bit more confidence and assurity stepping into new territory. Sue my pup and I with you and yours many blessings.
Very sincerely NICE JOB ! Way to go!!! It is the best thing to have your own business'
It really is!
Can you do a video on how you got the accounts.
Word of mouth
Website
Door hangers.
Etc.
TY.
Great job!
I love how positive you are it will take you far, it sounds like you have come a long way in life to get where you are. 😊
Can you tell me how to price say a row home yard to and average 1/8 acre and then a large yard
Thank you so much in advanced you have inspired me
Thank you so much!!
1 dog, 1/8th on an acre or less would be $14 per week
1 dog large yard would be $20 a week
WOW!! almost 100 subscribers! How do you pay employees (the three ladies)? hourly? By job? Percentage? Do you have clients sign pooper contracts? Love watching your videos. When is your instructional book/manual coming out? HAHHA. No,seriously when??
I was just thinking I can’t believe I’m almost at 100. I didn’t even think I’d get 10 people to watch me. Y’all are awesome 👏🏻
I really should put something together. I’ll add that to my goal list.
I don’t have contact for scooping, we do have contact in the winter when we do snow removal (that’s a whole different type of situation and liability)
I use a payroll company to pay them now, before I would do a email transfer from my bank account to theirs
I pay 2 of them hourly and 1 on commission
Hey lady!
Thank You!
Hey! You’re welcome
You go, girl!
Thank you 🙏
Thank you for posting this!
You’re welcome
Love your videos, thank you for all the info! Thinking about doing this…how do you clean your equipment(rake, bucket) in between stops?
How to sanitize your equipment between stops #pooperscooper #dogwaste #short
So I lost my job a month ago and honestly I feel helpless and I just lost my motivation. I have a 2 year old and I know I have to pick my self back up for her sake. Honestly this video has helped me I know it's 2 years a Lil late but thank u it's giving me a goal something to work for and I am going to do this I just wish I could talk with u to get the right advice on everything like all my steps I need to take and how to operate. I'm going to Google and RUclips alot till I get it but thank u
Sorry to hear that! You got this. It can definitely be a grind, but this service is needed all over. Being consistent with your advertising and marketing and getting the word out there our service is available has work the best for me
I’m a business owner in Vermont, and would love to learn how to start a company like this in my area
Then you have come to the right place! I have a ton of content, but you keep asking questions and I can answer them as we go.
Thank you, I think I would like to start with is what cleaners and disinfectant to use?
Wow that’s great!
Thank you 🙏
I have a lawn care company and thought of doing some scoop with it
It’s a great add on service
Hi ma’am thanks for the video, and congrats on the success. However, there was absolutely nothing in this video pertaining to “how to start” the video. It was just a breakdown of potential yearly earning. Hoping to dig around for videos of more substance.
Welcome to my YT #pooperscooper #dogpoop #shortvideos
What is everyone's experience with commercial properties, like apartment complexes and HOA's? I'm thinking of focusing on commercial properties in the area of the city that I live in.
I've had a really great experience so far. I have only worked with 1 HOA and 2 apartment's. Both pay well and have no issue.
@@KroopinsPoopinScoopin how do you break down or price for apartment complexes? Just curious. I am starting a pressure washing company soon and ideally would like to start a pet waste removal company.
You ROCK! Amazing human.
A super belated thank you!
Awesome video! Thanks so much
You’re welcome
I just started a poop scooping business in my town. I am off to a slow start. Im super green ! Kinda nervous as shit.
Haha I remember those day! The green days are the fun times. How far have you gotten in the process?
money is money
Truth!
What do you use to spray the yards after providing the service?
Hi I have a question! Since I'm starting this on my own! And of course I'm going to be the only one scooping! Saying I want to go on vacation for a week or two! How does the pay method work! Like saying if I charge my client $15 a week! $60 for the month! Do I only charge them for the weeks i scooped or do I still charge them for the month $60! Cause when I return from my vacation I still have to scoop up that 💩! Just wanted to see how u would handle this situation
Do you think your appearance, the doe eyes, the ponytail through the hat, the oversized glasses; do you think that had/has an effect on your success? I’m in the same business. I have a great marketing strategy (cards, memes, uniform colors) well thought out vehicle choice, thought out logo design, carefully planned potential customer areas, but my progress is slow. Dead slow. Customers are hesitant, almost precautious, when they see a 6 foot 210lbs guy approach their door. Thoughts?
It could go either way. Sometimes I don’t get it taken seriously because of the way I look. I’m trying to have conversations with other service professionals and because I’m a female I don’t get taken seriously.
But I do know that I have a really good personality and I’m excellent with customers and my customer service so that definitely helps me.
There’s been times where guys haven’t wanted me to scoop their yard because they felt bad that I was doing it by myself. It’s a weird thing, but I try not to let my looks or my gender get in my way
I am curious about disposal. I read on Nick's site you pay a fee to dump it. I have read you can use a unit underground to turn it into usable compost. Have you looked into this and sold it? It just cant be used with edible plants.
I don’t take the poo any more. Disposing of it became a hassle so I stopped this April.
Usually the city dump will take the poo or you can rent a dumpster. I personally do want to compost it because my neighbors would be pissed.
Ty, so much
You’re welcome
I was wondering how can you afford to pay employees since the weekly clean up is like $14-15 a week per yard. Wouldn’t that be super low profit if you’re not doing it you’re self? Thanks.
A yard only takes about 7-10 minutes (typically) they average 3-4 an hour. Larger lots that take longer are priced accordingly, $20-$30 per week. Having the employees definitely cut into profits, but allows me to focus on other things within the business.
I hope this answered your question 😀
Kroopin’s Poopin Scoopin it did thank you
Hello , I am retired and excited to give this business a try, I was wondering what you had left after paying employees and expenses
Not as much as I would like..lol
Brilliant video thank you so much. May I ask what the average size yard is in your service area ?
Most of my yards are about 5000-6000 square feet lot size, but typically only scooping the back yard in most cases. I schedule standard yards for 15 min and large yards for 30 min. I price accordingly. They usually don't take the full time, but I like to give myself and the team wiggle room.
Kroopin’s Poopin Scoopin thank u very much for your reply 🙂
How do you dispose of large quantities of dog waste?
I dump in a dumpster that I rent or I go to my local dump and dump there.
Hey, what if I want to do cat litter too? Because not everyone has a dog. Do you guys do Cat litters too?
I want to do Cat and Dogs. And does charging a day fee $XX and $XX weekly feed make sense than monthly? I appreciate your help.
We personally don’t do cat litter right now because I don’t like the idea of going into homes. But, there is such thing as a bucket service. This is where they would put the cat litter into the bucket and have the bucket outside for us to come pick up. I think I would charge anywhere from $7 to $10 per week for that.
We bill 4 weeks at a time typically. I do have a couple customers that pay weekly, but in the process of trying to stop that.
Great video, what vehicle do you use and is it branded with logo?
Right now we’re scooping with 2 Chevy Colorados. One is branded with magnets and the other has Vinyl decals
So how would you get started
How to get started as a pooper scooper
How many a day do you do and At how much? A dog and do flyers work?
I is the owner I am working four days a week scooping, about five hours a day. My teammate works five days a week and she works 6 to 7 hours a day. Flyers work accompanied with other marketing strategies. You can’t expect to put a few flyers out once and get massive return. It needs to be a regular ongoing process. Hope that helps.
@@KroopinsPoopinScoopin thank you 🙏
How do you get business? Facebook ads, door to door, walking in businesses? I'm currently running some Facebook ads but wanting to drive more business.
I don’t run many Facebook ads.
I update my Google listing weekly.
I try to stay consistent with posting on my business page, engaging posts.
I also post in Byselle trade groups, but those are harder to post in these days. It’s better to get a friend or family to recommend you in those groups and tag your business page.
Door hangers really haven’t brought me much business, but I’m not super consistent with passing those out since Rona.
You could always go to doggy daycare‘s and put some flyers there.
Vehicle magnets also work wonders, keep them simple and straight to the point
@@KroopinsPoopinScoopin Awesome!! Thank you so much!
Hey! I remembered not to long ago I commented on a video you posted asking of me and my wife could video call you and ask some questions about starting up. I started a new job and kind of gave up hope on myself but now I’m ready!! I want to take control of my life and be my own boss like you lol so if we can, is it cool if we arrange it for sometime this week? And if so when would be a good time?
Email me at @ kroopinservices@gmail.com
We have a huge area here and luckily there's a lot of money here.
What is the quickest way to get clients?
Start hustling, creating awareness, getting your company out there in person amd social media. Every person you meet give them a business card. This is an a get rich fast type of business, it can be slow to start but definitely picks up momentum once the ball is rolling
@@KroopinsPoopinScoopin thank you for the replies!
I don't need to get rich. I was an Uber driver during the pandemic and I was making about 150 to $300 a night and then the bottom dropped out. Now with gas prices I'm barely making 10 bucks an hour max.
I need to be able to make about $200 a day. That shouldn't be asking too much. I should be able to make $200 a day and then more as time goes by.
We were thinking about doing window washing and the poop business. Then. That way we get a client doing the poop and maybe we can add the windows and vice versa.

Welcome to the crappy side of YT 💩
im starting a business similar and I am really trying to find a good use of the poop. I wonder if you could find people interested in buying it for compost of even some types of fuel. it sounds crazy but i can think of worse. haha
I'm sure somebody does, but not around here.
I think dog poop is one of the only poops that are not good for fertilizer.
I'm starting this myself. What do you charge per yard? What equipment do you use? Any help from anyone be awesome
My base yard is $15 per scoop. That yard has one dog and is less than 1/8 of an acre. I am in and out of the yard 15 minutes or less.
I have a couple videos on my channel showing what I use, check those out please.
Ty for your free advice. Be blessed@@KroopinsPoopinScoopin
My pleasure!
Where do you dispose all the pet waste?
In a dumpster or at the city dump
how long did it take you toi get your first 50 yards?
I hit 50 accounts after my first spring rush so under a year in business.
I've been watching and listening to you for a few months now. I'm kinda frozen in fear and I'm sick of not making a move. But I do have some questions I really can't find answers to. Do you have an email address, if you wouldn't mind, I'd so appreciate picking your brain a little. Just logistics.
Kroopinservices@gmail.com
@@KroopinsPoopinScoopin I’ve kept your email too hope you don’t mind. Thank you for the information.
Hey I was wondering if I could ask you a few questions!!!
sure
What do you do with the poop as in where do you dispose of it? Customers trash can?
You are correct, right in the customers trashcan.
I’m trying to get there. I can’t seem to get above 1k a month
Just keep it up. Network in the areas where you already have homes. Even if it putting business cards underneath the doormat poking out a bit . It takes like 5 minutes to hit a few house
👍
What are your biggest tax write offs?
My biggest 2023 tax write off #pooperscooper #taxwriteoffs
How's it been going?? Follow-up??
It’s been really good, Business has been pretty consistent. If you have a specific topics you want me to update let me know and I can make a video on that
@@KroopinsPoopinScoopin I recently spoke with one of the big guys about buying a franchise… It would just be cool to hear your take on something like that! Versus starting and growing completely on your own and skipping the franchise fees.
Do you pay your employees by the scoop or by the hour
Per hour
How often do you work to make that much
To be honest I’ve never really clocked my hours. Next year I’m going to keep track of how much I work. I know it’s more than 40 hours a week with scooping and office work.
My business is changing a bit, I’ve hired employees so my profits are way down (employees are the greatest expense)
You’ll loose money if the dog is big like a Rottweiler. Heavy shits.
I love the larger poops, easier to find.
how to price this service? I am getting in.
Typical $13-$20 per scoop, depending on size of property and number of dogs
what state and town
Michigan
What is the dogs have diarrhea?
I rake it up the best I can, but typically get it all . I always let the home owner know when the pups poop is different
@@KroopinsPoopinScoopin totally random but you could carry around a bag of saw dust or kitty litter to try and clump up the diarrhea to make it easier to try and scoop it. Just an idea!
Ohh, never thought about that. Have you tried this before?
It probably helps that you're a woman to be able to do so well your 1st year
I’ve been told this before, but I feel as if that phrase really discredits the hard work and dedication that I put into my business.
@@KroopinsPoopinScoopin I am definitely sorry for the way I spoke. I really should ask if it helps at all being a women in the poop scoop business? Not trying discredit you but I know for some jobs being a woman can have minimal but nice perks.
Some perks being a bit of an advantage or edge in the market.
I know growing a business takes work.
@@whodatboi6046 thank you for clarifying. Here is my thought on it overall. I’m sure I’ve been hired for some jobs because of that way I look and those situations have been extremely uncomfortable for me. I’ve been cornered in a back yard while a man told me he dreams of hurting people… that was really scary. I’ve had my body commented on while I was scooping and have been asked some extremely uncomfortable questions. In all the years my husband has been doing tree service he’s never encountered most of the situations I have.
I’ve had to stop bringing my husband to business meeting for moral support because they always start talking to him (he doesn’t own any part of my business)…. I’ve been laughed at when I’ve show up to a job and asked if I can handle it all by my little self.
On the other side:
I picked my colors to be pink and black. Pink is a trusting color it creates the emotion of trust. I carry myself for the most part in a way I find to be a respectable. I do think I have a good relatable personality and that is what I find helps me ALOT so I really lean into my personality. I also wear my big eye glasses because I think I look cute and smart… lol
I do know I’ve been hired by people wanting to support women led business before so that’s definitely an advantage, I’ll take it! I also had an epic support system around me, I believed in myself so much it rubbed off on others.
I’ll never really know the real reason why people initially used KPS, but I’d like to think it’s because I’m honest, reliable, fixed my mistakes and created a great customer experience.
Bull shit!! Lol
You mean Dog shit??? Lol
Dog poo= 💵 and opportunity
@@KroopinsPoopinScoopin yeah Dog shit! Lol
