Hi There! Please familiarize yourself with our Terms of Service.
By initiating service, both parties agree to the following terms and responsibilities.
As the client, you are responsible for maintaining safe access into and out of the yard (if we are unable to clean due to access, you will be charged for that cleanup), immediate notification of any changes in the number of pets and prompt payment of balances due.
Inclement weather may make it hazardous or impossible to make a scheduled cleanup. In this event, we will be responsible for servicing your yard as soon as possible.
If for any reason your pet(s) will not be using the yard for a certain period (i.e. vacation, illness, etc.) and you do not wish to be charged for an unnecessary visit(s), please let us know in advance to pause the service.
We assume no liabilities for damages to yards, gates, pets or other properties.
Fees and Promotions are subject to change at any time. In this rare circumstance, you will be notified at least two (2) weeks prior to any changes.

How do I pay?
We have a client portal where payment is processed. If you did not onboard yourself through the instant quote button on our website, we will create an account on your behalf after you have spoken to a Scoop ‘N Geaux representative. We will then send your login info to your email. The process to sign up is simple and takes under two minutes. Inside of your portal account, you will have access to copies of all paid invoices, records of past cleanups, and you can link your credit/debit card into the secure platform. After you link your card, we will generate and pay invoices on your behalf and send you receipts.
Note:
Your card will need to be linked to your account by the time we arrive at your home. If your card is not connected by this time, we will attempt to contact you and knock on your door. If no contact is made, we will reschedule your cleanup for the next available date. Depending on the time of year, this could be weeks out. If you need help connecting your card, we are always available at 337-888-6078 to help you over the phone.
When will I be charged?
Billing occurs on the 1st of each month before services are provided.
Payments for one-time cleanups are due upon completion of the job.
On your first cleanup, we will bill for the initial cleanup as well as prorate the remainder of the month at the same time. Then, you’re all set up for 1st of the month billing.
If payment is not received before your first cleanup of the month you will be removed from the service schedule until payment is processed. Services billed for the month are non-refundable. If you choose to cancel, we are more than happy to clean for the remainder of the month for you if needed.

Do you scoop front and back yards?
We generally just clean back yards since that is primarily where most customers dogs are let out.
However if you would like us to check the front yard as well we can do that for no extra charge as long as the total yard size is less than 5,000 sq ft.
What happens with the dog waste?
Due to the excessive amount of accumulated waste, we do not take the dog waste away with us. Once the cleanup is complete, the waste is double bagged and placed inside of your trash receptacle if it’s outside.
Otherwise, we will double bag the waste so it’s presentable and place the bags by your gate.
What day and time will you be at my home?
With respect to scheduling, we are unable to provide a timeframe on your scoop day. We have many yards to clean, and our routes are constantly being optimized for efficiency.
This also helps keep our rates low for you! Our routes run from around 7am to dark.
Communication is important and you will always receive notice via text when we are on the way. We provide about 60 minutes notice, so you are properly informed of our arrival. If you are at the beginning of our route, you will likely receive a 15-30 minute on the way text. We don’t want to bother you at 6am. Your scoop day will be the same day each week. If your service day ever changes, we will always communicate with you in advance.
Do I have to be home when you clean?
No, you do not have to be home when we clean. We simply ask for easy access to your gate.
Once the cleanup is completed, we will send a picture of your closed gate to your email on file, so you have records of it.
Does my dog need to be inside?
We prefer for dogs to kept inside during the cleanup however we can clean with the dogs in the yard as long as they are very friendly.
Our team loves animals! It’s part of the reason we started Scoop ‘N Geaux.
What Happens If my Service Day is on a Holiday?
Great question! If your service day falls on a major holiday, we will skip that week’s cleanup and perform double dooty the following week.
You will still be charged due to 2 weeks of accumulated poo in the yard.
Do you disinfect your equipment?
Yes! We disinfect our equipment after each cleanup with an organic, kennel-grade disinfectant to prevent the spread of germs and viruses.
