Tempe is denser and greener than most of the Valley, and dog-crazy in a way that surprises people who only know it for Arizona State and Mill Avenue. Behind the lake-lined streets of The Lakes, the family lots out in Warner Ranch, and the historic blocks of Broadmor and Maple-Ash, there's a backyard and a dog someone has to stay on top of. Ah Crap Cleanup Co. handles the part nobody volunteers for: weekly dog-waste pickup, done right, for $25/week.
It's owner-operated, which in plain terms means you're not booking through an app or a call center. You're texting Bryan — an actual person who shows up, clears the yard, and sends before-and-after photos every single visit, so you know it's handled. No long-term contract, no confusing packages.
First time on a regular schedule, or has the backyard quietly gotten away from you between work and the Arizona heat? Founding Tempe customers pay no extra charge for the larger initial catch-up cleanup — we clear the buildup, then keep it simple at $25/week from there. Bigger one-time jobs are quoted by photo.
How the Tempe route works
Here's how the $25/week stays $25 and stays reliable: the Tempe route is grouped by neighborhood. Homes near each other — a cluster of streets down in The Lakes off Baseline, or a run of lots between Warner and Elliot in Warner Ranch — share the same service day. Tighter routes mean less driving between yards, which keeps the price low and the service day consistent. Send your address and we'll slot you into the day that already runs past your street.
Why Tempe
Tempe is dog country in its own way — packed with renters near ASU walking pups down to the Bark Park at Papago, and south-Tempe families on real lots off Kyrene and Rural. The Tempe Sports Complex Dog Park off Hardy stays busy year-round, the HOAs from Warner Ranch to The Lakes expect yards kept sharp, and a summer week of a couple dogs in a fenced backyard adds up fast in this heat. That's exactly the yard we're built for. If you've got a dog and a fence, we've got the scooper.
