Check out our Straight-A report card from Angie's List!
Fifteen years ago, Cara Brown had a “movie moment” revelation: she would switch careers from computer consultant to dog-poop remover. Brown and her business partner, Erin Erman, shut down their stressful tech startup for a different kind of stress: figuring out how to scoop frozen poop without ruining clients’ lawns.
When the two women opened Dirty Work, they were the ones finding, scooping, and hauling away dog waste. Now, they employ four scoopers in order to focus on the business. The windows of Brown’s Toyota Tacoma are plastered with signs reading Got poop? We scoop! and Picking up where your dog left off. On any given day, she’s awake by 4 a.m. and out the door by 5:30 a.m. – and for the next 12 or 14 hours, she checks on the company’s pickup trucks, coordinates schedule changes, meets with prospective clients, and occasionally scoops (hey, a girl’s gotta stay grounded).
Dirty Work has managed to thrive in a down economy; Brown claims the pet sector is relatively recession-proof. “People will need [our services] until dogs start learning to use the toilet,” she says. Reliability is a tenet central to their business model: employees scoop in rain, sleet, and snow. They scoop from sweltering 100-degree weather to frigid 10-degree weather, when they chip away at piles of poop with long metal spades, which act like ice picks.

BECAUSE YOUR BEST FRIEND DESERVES A PEST -FREE, CLEAN YARD
2,000,000 Atlanta Residents have no sewer system.
Our metro dogs don't use the toilet. Rain and irrigation washes the waste into creeks, storm drains & street runoff (which isn't treated at wastewater plants). We always double-bag collected dog waste and dispose of it in a manner exceeding all regulations and EPA guidelines. Remember, when your dog goes on the lawn, it doesn't just stay on the lawn!
(1) Zoonotic Diseases (passed from animal to human). Children and infants are the most vulnerable.Considerations are roundworm (lingers in the soil), Toxacara Canis, which can cause blindness. Hookworms. Campylobacter (Campylobacteriosis â a bacterial infection carried by dogs and cats that frequently causes diarrhea in humans), Adenovirus, E. coli, Listeria, Toxocariasis â roundworms usually transmitted from dogs to humans, often without noticeable symptoms, but may cause vision loss, a rash, fever, or cough. And this is just a partial list.
(2) Urban and storm water pollution. The EPA and many state and local agencies are learning and reporting on the dangers and effects of dog waste on waterways. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) even estimates that two or three days worth of droppings from a population of about 100 dogs would contribute enough bacteria to temporarily close a bay, and all watershed areas within 20 miles of it, to swimming and shellfishing.
(3) Dog waste does NOT make good fertilizer. It contains microorganisms from your dog's digestive system that can be passed along to plants. A person can become very ill by eating fruits or veggies "fertilized" with dog feces. Also, compost piles may not get hot enough to kill disease-causing organisms. Read "The Scoop on Poop"
(4) Insects and pests and odor elimination.
When pet waste is improperly disposed of, it can be picked up by storm-water runoff and washed into storm drains or nearby water bodies. Since storm drains do not always connect to treatment facilities, untreated animal feces often end up in lakes and streams, causing significant water pollution.
Decaying pet waste consumes oxygen and sometimes releases ammonia. Low oxygen levels and ammonia can damage the health of fish and other aquatic life. Pet waste carries bacteria, viruses, and parasites that can threaten the health of humans and wildlife. Pet waste also contains nutrients that promote weed and algae growth (eutrophication). Cloudy and green, Eutrophic water makes swimming and recreation unappealing or even unhealthy.

We have 2 dogs of our own plus one foster dog from a rescue. The
fosters rotate in as they get adopted out, so we almost always have 3
dogs to clean up after. DirtyWork's employee (in my case Brian) is
prompt, efficient and friendly to my dogs. Many of the rescue dogs are
fearful or timid and he is kind and gentle with them if he comes into
contact with them while on the job. My yard is clean and my dogs are
happy. The icing on the poo-cake: they bill me to my Visa
automatically. The Dirty Work People - particularly Brian - simply rock."
"Don't know how I lived without them
I hired Dirty Work when I was very pregnant with my first child, and
bending down to pick up after my 3 dogs became a torturous chore. I
have never once questioned their value since. They are always on time,
and most days, I only know they've been here because of the nice
"You've been scooped" notice and my perfectly clean yard. (Somehow they
are much better at the cleanup than I ever was!) My toddler now
benefits as well, as we can actually play in the yard! (Even if only
for a couple of days per week before it starts getting "littered"
again.) LOVE this service."
I've used them for 8 years and LOVE them
So, when I first got my boxer, I had never heard of a pooper scooper
service--they didn't have that kind of thing when I was a kidLOL! Dirty
work has the nicest guy come out every Friday and he removes all the
waste and then it's safe to walk in my backyard. Their service is great
and they're super reliable!
pooper scoopers
Dirty Work service is professional and reliable. I would highly
recommend this company (and have) I now also have friends that are
happy customers!
A Real Necessity
This business is really great. Completely reliable, dependable, and a
great value for your money. I have used them for several years and
think they are the best.
super pooper scoopers!
We have found Dirty Work Pooper Scooper Service to be a great company. We would highly reccommend them.
Thankfull for Dirty work services
I am very pleased with the service that I receive from Dirty Works. The
personnel are Highly professional and do a great job. Thank you!!
Best weekly expense!
This service is well worth the money and they do a great job. They show
up every week like click work and do a thorough job.
Dirty Work Rocks!
With multiple dogs and a small backyard, we would be in deep "doo-doo"
without Dirty Work. We are long time happy clients and believe that the
service they provide is a real bargain. We think they rate TEN stars!
Thank goodness for Dirty Work
I have used Dirty Work since 2001. Being disabled, I would not be able
to keep my yard clean without their service. I was considering the
fairness of keeping my dog after my car accident for many reasons,
including keeping her yard clean and safe and pleasant.
Cara has been my "Scooper," and is so fantastic and helps way
beyond what they are paid to do. When I have called the office about an
invoice or to change my schedule, they are prompt and helpful and
everyone is so sweet.
I would be wary of a bad review from someone who has only posted
one review on Kudzu, and it was to tell people to try Dirty Work's
competitor. But that's just me.
I can speak for myself and 2 of my friends that I referred to Dirty
Work, that they are so helpful and are worth every penny to eliminate
an unpleasant task. I would especially recommend them to seniors or
those with limited sight / seeing eye dogs or other disabilities. They
help you to keep your pet, which is so important for your emotional
well being.
A pooper scooper service sounds straight forward enough, but they
really go above and beyond. I have watched my scooper when she didn't
know I was home, and she was playing fetch with my dog while she worked
and gave him a kiss on the head when she left. I saw her test the gate
to make sure it was closed tightly and securely. My landscaper hasn't
closed my gate in three years, so I REALLY appreciate the extra effort
and attention each week, and I feel very safe with my dog out there
with her.
Best Pet Service, and really nice people
I have used these pooper scoopers to do my "Dirty Work" for 6 years,
and they are just the best. I thought they'd be like my lawn service,
coming all different times of day, leaving the gate open, not coming in
bad weather, etc. But they are just the opposite! Friendly folks, very
reliable, nice to me (and more importantly, my dogs!)
