Craigslist, you magnificent bastard. This isn’t the first time I’ve heard of individuals offering a doggie poop pick-up service, but it IS the first time I’ve seen it up on the big CL.
Here’s a real ad found on Craigslist: (Spelling, grammar, and punctuation left as-is)
Why let the POOPER SCOOPER pick up where your dog left off?
*****Dog waste is NOT fertilizer! It contains bacteria that can be harmul to pets and humans.
*****Isn’t it time you enjoyed your yard again?!
*****No one enjoys poop scooping, that’s why we’re here for you!
*****We take the waste off-site so you’ll never have to see it or smell it again!
*****Company Security! In an industry where businesses come and go, you can trust we will be in business and taking care of your needs!
*****Convenient ‘price per visit’ option allows you to choose the service that fits your needs best…anything from one time to multiple times per week. Prices start $12/week/dog.
*****Quick and convenient service with a bright yellow “Poo Pee Doo was here” card taped to your front door!
