Our Process
Here's our 27-point checklist
Tap any marker on the yard to see exactly what we do at that stage. Every visit follows the same four-step playbook, from the moment we leave HQ to the "you've been scooped" text.
01
Outside the fence
Before Arriving
HQ prep and on-the-road checks so we show up ready for your yard.
- Pull your customer profile from the app: yard size, dog details, trash can spot, gate notes
- Review prior visit notes for hot spots, hazards, and any owner requests
- Load the branded vehicle with all supplies for the route
- Confirm the rake-style scooper is sanitized and ready to go
- Crew suits up in a clean Wag n' Bag uniform
- Pack a bucket fitted with a drawstring trash bag
- Pack extra trash bags as backup, every visit
- Pack enzymatic deodorizer spray for the rake and bucket
- Send the customer a "we're on the way" text
02
At the gate
Before Scooping
Safety and gate checks at the property before we step onto the grass.
- Whistle or make noise before opening the gate to confirm no loose dogs
- Inspect the gate latch and frame, note any issues for the customer
- Double-check the trash can spot from the customer notes
03
On the grid pattern
During Scooping
The sweep pattern and technique that keeps every yard spotless.
- Walk the yard in straight, parallel lines from corner to corner
- Scan side to side with eyes and rake on every pass
- Keep passes tight so no spots are missed between rows
- Check patios and porches where small or winter dogs often go
- Solid piles: hit from the corner, scrape in, shake into the bucket
- Runny piles: flick from the side, never rake straight through
- Make a second pass in the opposite direction (checker pattern) to catch any missed piles
- In snow, look for buried piles and flag any to the customer
- Take notes on hot spots, gate issues, or yard hazards for next time
04
Back at the gate
After Scooping
Wrap-up so your yard is left better than we found it.
- Seal the waste in heavy-duty bags and place them in the customer's trash bin
- Sanitize the rake before it leaves the property
- Close and latch the gate tight
- Take a photo of the closed gate for the visit record
- Upload the photo to the app and send it to the customer
- Send a "you've been scooped" text so you know we're done

Frequently Asked
The most common questions.
If your question isn't on the list, give us a call, we answer the phone.
How is pricing determined?
Pricing is based on yard size and how many dogs you have. Our base rate covers yards up to about 1/8 acre. Yards larger than that, or larger than we expected once we arrive, are quoted at an adjusted rate. We always quote up front, and if a yard turns out to be bigger than described we'll let you know before the next visit.
Do I have to sign a contract?
Nope. Wag n' Bag never uses contracts. Pause, change plans, or cancel any time with a written note. We earn your business one visit at a time.
What payment methods do you accept?
All billing runs through our CRM, Sweep & Go, using a secure credit or debit card on file. Your card is charged automatically based on your schedule, so there's nothing to remember and no checks to write.
Can I change my schedule later?
You can always move up to weekly or twice-weekly. We don't recommend dropping below weekly since waste left longer than a week lets bacteria build in the grass. You can also pause for a trip, but only if the dog won't be home, otherwise the yard still needs scooping and we'll charge for the build-up at the next visit.
Can I change the day of the week I'm scheduled?
Your scheduled day is set by your location on our route, so we keep it consistent. That's how we stay reliable for every client on the route, but we'll always send an on-the-way text the day of your visit.
What are your hours?
These are our phone and office hours, not necessarily the times we're scooping in your yard. Our scooping route runs based on the day each location is scheduled for. For the most current scooping availability, check our Google Business profile.
Where do you service?
Our home base is Richmond, IN. We also serve Centerville, IN, New Paris, OH, and Fountain City, IN. If you're nearby, just ask. We're always happy to check.
Do I need to be home for the visit?
Nope. Most clients leave a gate code or unlock the side gate, and we handle the rest. We always double-check the gate before we leave.
What if my dog is in the yard?
We request that dogs be kept inside while we're scooping. Once we're done, you'll get a completed text and the dogs are free to head back out into a clean yard.
What if it rains? Or snows?
We work in light rain and most weather. For storms or unsafe conditions we'll skip the visit and catch the yard on your next regularly scheduled day. We don't promise a make-up visit on a different day, since every location is on a specific route day.
