Get FREE QuoteYes, it's only scooping poop, but it can be done well or done poorly. We provide a premium service and have systems to ensure high standards are maintained.
STEP 1Our trained staff walk your whole yard following a grid pattern both vertically and horizontally to ensure no scoop is missed.
20% of piles are picked up on the second pass as grass and leaves easily hide waste until seen from a new angle.
The waste collected is then double-bagged and put in your wheelie bin, or taken away if you choose that add-on.
STEP 2 (OPTIONAL)Add our sanitise and deodorise spray to any visit. After scooping, we apply an enzyme-based spray to your lawn that breaks down leftover microscopic waste and helps minimise the spread of parasites and disease.
It also leaves your yard smelling fresh. The spray is safe on pets, plants and people, and it's included in your free first clean so you can see the difference.
STEP 3Our scoopers disinfect the equipment after every single visit throughout the day.
We use vet-grade disinfectants between every job to ensure nothing nasty is carried from one yard to the next.
This is an essential part of our service, ensuring your pets are kept safe.
STEP 4We offer you a notification service where we text when we're about an hour away.
This means there are no surprises when we turn up at your yard, and your dogs (when needed) can be put away.
We also take a photo of the closed gate, ensuring your pets are left safe and secure when we leave.
Your dogs, your yard and how often you'd like it done. Takes 60 seconds. No payment details needed.
We meet you and your dogs, scoop the yard, then sanitise and deodorise it.

When left un-scooped, pet waste is more than an eyesore. If you use your backyard regularly, or have kids who run around and play, it's a real health risk for everyone.
Regular scooping and sanitation means you can enjoy your outdoors knowing it's clean, fresh-smelling and free of poop-borne nasties.
Waste left in wet weather breeds roundworm, hookworm and E. coli — a real risk to your kids and pets.
Waste acid burns your lawn, leaving dead patches that can take months to grow back.
Uncollected waste attracts flies and rodents — and the smell spreads.
Your price depends on the size of your yard, how often you'd like us to clean and how many dogs you have. Tell us about them in 60 seconds and we'll send you a personalised quote.

Anyone can pick up dog poop, but it's the extra effort we put into staff that makes our service premium.

We aim to ensure our staff are kept to high standards of both ethics and hygiene.
The sanitation processes we use follow recommended government and vet guidelines for animals.
The equipment we use is sanitised using vet-grade disinfectants between every job.

Every month we donate to local Wellington animal causes.
These range from shelters to charitable organisations, or even individual cases we have heard about.
We love animals just as much as you do and want to offer aroha and support to them where we can.
PooPals is a locally owned, family-run pet waste business servicing Wellington since 2025. As dog parents ourselves, we know how important a clean outdoor space is for your furry friends and your family.
Picking up dog waste isn't glamorous, but it's a service we struggled to find when we needed help with our own yard. The idea was born and we're now proud to scoop and sanitise yards for our fellow dog owners throughout the Wellington region.

End-of-tenancy pet cleans, scheduled scooping of shared lawns and courtyards, and a dated photo report for your records.
Quick answers to the most common questions.
Yes. We clean any part of your property where your pet leaves waste: front, back and side yards, lawns, garden beds and dog runs.
Yes, but it's a limited offer. We only have capacity for 3 free first cleans each week, so it's first in, first served. You don't need to sign up to anything. We'll scoop your yard then sanitise and deodorise it.
Yes, we scoop all year round, except in severe weather (for example, heavy rain), when we will reschedule because it can be near impossible to scoop and a big mess is left behind. Wellington's wet weather is when regular scooping matters most, because rain spreads waste and the nasties in it across your lawn.
Every team member is trained and background-checked. We text you before we arrive, sanitise our equipment with vet-grade disinfectants between every job so nothing is carried from one yard to the next, and take a photo of your closed gate before we leave.
