Weekly service is more affordable per visit than bi-weekly. Use our pricing calculator at yobiscoop.com for an instant estimate. **How often should I have my yard cleaned?** We recommend weekly service for most households with 1-2 dogs. Homes with 3+ dogs or smaller yards may benefit from twice-weekly service. Bi-weekly is an option for budget-conscious pet owners with one small dog. **Do you require a contract?** No. YobiScoop operates on a no-contract basis. You can start, pause, or cancel service at any time with no fees or penalties. **What areas do you serve?** We serve Sarasota, Bradenton, Lakewood Ranch, Venice, Siesta Key, Palmetto, Parrish, North Port, Osprey, Longboat Key, and surrounding Gulf Coast communities. **Is pet waste really a health hazard?** Yes. Pet waste can contain harmful bacteria (E. coli, Salmonella), parasites (hookworms, roundworms, Giardia), and viruses. In Florida's warm climate, these pathogens remain active year-round and can contaminate soil, water, and air. **Do you serve commercial properties?** Yes. We provide comprehensive pet waste management for apartments, condos, HOAs, veterinary clinics, dog parks, and commercial properties of all sizes. Commercial services include station maintenance, GPS-verified routes, and monthly reporting. **What happens during Florida's rainy season?** Our technicians service properties rain or shine. During heavy rainstorms, we may reschedule to the next available day. Regular service during rainy season is especially important because runoff can carry waste into waterways. **Are your disposal methods eco-friendly?** Yes. We use licensed disposal facilities and environmentally responsible methods. We never dump waste in storm drains, waterways, or unapproved locations. **Do you offer one-time cleanups?** Yes. We offer one-time deep cleaning for accumulated waste, new homeowner cleanups, spring/fall seasonal cleanups, and event preparation. **How do I get started?** Call (941) 392-4270, email hello@yobiscoop.com, or visit yobiscoop.com to request a free quote.
