Quick answer — Weekly dog waste removal for one dog runs about $74–$87 per month across three published Memphis-area rate cards. Weekly service for two dogs runs about $80–$86 per month across two. Twice-weekly service for one dog runs about $117–$121 per month across two. Every other combination — three or more dogs, every-other-week, and one-time cleanups — has fewer than two published rates behind it, so no range is shown for it.
Eight companies were compared for this guide. Two of them publish a full rate card a homeowner can read without submitting a form, and a third publishes a starting per-visit rate. That is the fact that shapes this entire page: the ranges below are narrow not because the market is tight, but because the published corpus is small.

Which Memphis companies publish their rates?
Three operators publish a figure that converts to a monthly price. They are listed with what they publish and where — no ordering, no scoring, and no assessment of any of them.
| Operator | Published rate, verbatim unit | Source |
|---|---|---|
| ON DOODY | Once a Week: 1 dog $17.00 · 2 dogs $19.75 · 3 dogs $24.50 · 4 dogs $28.00. Twice a Week: 1 dog $13.50 · 2 dogs $15.00 · 3 dogs $17.50 · 4 dogs $19.75. Five or more dogs: “Call for quote” | ondoody.com/residential/ |
| Zippy Scoops | Twice weekly “$14/visit” for one dog; weekly “starting at $18/visit”; “Most Germantown families with 1–2 dogs on weekly service pay around $72–$80 per month”; homepage “Most customers pay between $60–$100 per month” | zippyscoops901.com |
| Scoop 901 | ”Rates start at $20 per visit and depend on pick up frequency and how big your pack is”3 | scoop901.com |
Scoop 901’s figure is a published starting rate, not a schedule-specific price; it is counted because it is the only per-visit number that company publishes.
The remaining five operators compared — Little Stinkers, Scoop You Up, Doo Doo Pros, Scoop’s Pet Waste Cleanup, and Poop, There It Is! — publish no rate that converts to a monthly figure.4 Doo Doo Pros advertises “Rates Starting at $9.99” without stating whether that is per visit, per week or per month, so it is excluded from every range on this site rather than guessed at.
One reading is worth flagging because the page itself is ambiguous: on the ON DOODY table the unit is not labeled. Per-visit is the reading consistent with that company’s FAQ, which describes monthly invoicing, and with Zippy Scoops’ published monthly figures for the same schedules. Every conversion on this page rests on that reading.
Why is the price per visit and not per yard?
Three of the market’s published structures price the visit, and the dog count is the multiplier — not square footage. ON DOODY’s table has no yard tier at all, and neither does Scoop 901’s. Zippy Scoops names yard condition as a factor and publishes no tiers for it, noting that heavy yards “may require extra time.”
The practical consequence for a homeowner comparing quotes: a per-visit rate is only comparable once the schedule is fixed. A $13.50 twice-weekly visit is cheaper per visit than a $17.00 weekly visit and roughly 59% more expensive per month, because it happens twice as often.
Do Memphis pet waste companies require a contract?
Two operators publish an explicit no-contract policy in their own words. ON DOODY’s residential page states “No Contracts” and adds “No prepayment required.”1 Zippy Scoops’ pricing page states “No contracts ever.”2
That is a market norm supported by two published sources. It describes what those companies publish about their own terms, and says nothing about the terms any particular operator will offer.
What moves the price?
Read off the published tables rather than off intuition:
- Dog count is the largest published multiplier. ON DOODY’s weekly table climbs $17.00 → $19.75 → $24.50 → $28.00 across one to four dogs.
- Frequency sets the monthly total. Twice-weekly service costs less per visit and more per month at every published dog count.
- Yard size appears on no published rate card in this market as a priced tier.
- The first visit is handled inconsistently and is never priced publicly: two operators waive it with a recurring plan, one charges an unstated one-time extra on the first invoice.
How current are these numbers?
Every figure was captured Sept 15 2026 from the operator’s own live page, and each source below carries that date. Published rates change without notice and without a changelog; a figure that is two quarters old is a historical record, not a quote.
Anyone using this page to sanity-check a real quote should reopen the three source pages above. The Germantown dog poop removal page carries the same ranges with the estimator attached.
