The Scoop on Dog Poop in Seattle
Seattle is a dog-lover’s city – in fact, we have the highest rate of dog ownership in the U.S., with about 247 dogs per 1,000 residents. That means a lot of dog poop! It’s estimated around 187,000 dogs live in Seattle, producing roughly 145,000 pounds of waste every day. If not picked up, that waste isn’t just a pesky eyesore – it’s a real health and environmental concern. Bacteria and parasites in dog waste can linger in soil for years, putting kids and other pets at risk of infection. Even worse, in our rainy climate, uncollected pet waste gets washed into storm drains and can pollute Puget Sound and local waterways without treatment. That’s where Can Doo comes in. Our reliable service ensures your dog’s mess is scooped, bagged, and trashed every time to protect your family and our environment. By hiring a local poop scooping pro, you’re not only reclaiming your yard – you’re also helping keep Seattle clean, green, and safe for everyone.
