Gross Encounters of the Turd Kind was founded in Denver, CO in 2021. What started as a weekend side hustle serving 8 neighbors has grown to 142 residential subscribers across the Denver metro. We're still family-owned. Every yard we service is a direct reflection of who we are.
01
Do it right first time
No shortcuts. Every yard gets a full, thorough clean.

Respect the property
You're a guest. Leave gates as you found them.
03
Own your work
If something goes wrong, say something.
Dangerous Dog ProtocolIf the Dangerous Dog icon appears on any job, follow all 5 steps before touching the gate. Your safety is never negotiable.
1
Send "On the Way" with ETA
Before arriving — gives the customer time to secure the dog.
2
Text: "Is the dog inside? Safe to enter?"
On arrival, before touching the gate.
3
No response in 2 min? Call the customer.
Be brief: "Hi, here for your service — is [dog name] inside?"
4
Still nothing? Knock on the door.
Someone may be home but not near their phone.
5
No contact? Skip. 50% charge applies.
Notify management immediately. Never enter without confirmation.
We promise to scoop the poop... safely.
Week 1
Ride along & observe
Day 1 orientation: routes, Sweep & Go app, this training hub. Days 2–5: passenger ride-alongs. Watch every step — parking, gate, grid, exit photo, app workflow. Goal: understand the full workflow before touching anything.
Week 2
Assisted execution
You do the work under supervision. Focus: grid pattern (3–4 passes horizontal + vertical), gate protocol, full app workflow. Debrief after every yard.
Week 3
Light independent routes
3–5 yards per day, fully independent. End-of-day check-in. Short quiz on protocols and app. Identify anything needing reinforcement.
Week 4+
Full production
Full workload. Ongoing random spot checks. Quality issues trigger immediate retraining. Eligible for performance bonuses at 90 days.
