In Northern Virginia, expect $19 to $45 per visit. Scoop Cop charges $19 a visit twice weekly, $30 a visit weekly, and $41 a visit every other week — one flat rate for up to four dogs, with no contract and no initial cleanup fee.
Most companies quote per visit rather than per month because visit count varies. Frequency is the single biggest driver: the more often someone comes, the less there is to pick up, so the per-visit rate drops. Every-other-week service costs the most per stop precisely because each stop takes the longest.
The second driver is dog count, and it's where quotes get confusing. Plenty of services add a fee per dog, so a four-dog household can pay close to double what a one-dog household pays for the same yard. We use one flat rate up to four dogs to remove that variable; five or more adds $5 per visit.
Before you compare two quotes, check three things: whether there's an initial or catch-up fee for a yard that hasn't been cleaned recently, whether the rate climbs per dog, and whether cancelling requires notice or a fee. A cheap headline rate with all three attached usually costs more than a flat one.
