Tired of Hearing “We Don’t Cover Shelton” From Every Pooper Scooper? You’re Not Alone

Dooky Squad
December 8, 2025

Hey Shelton dog parents – picture this: It’s a drizzly Saturday morning, the kids are begging to play outside, and you’re staring at a backyard that’s basically a minefield. You finally decide to call in the pros.

First call: “Sorry, we’re in Tacoma – Shelton’s too far.”

Second call: “We’re based in Olympia… yeah, Mason County’s outside our route.”

Third call: same story. By now you’re ready to just sell the house and move into an apartment with no yard.

If that sounds painfully familiar, welcome to the club. We hear it every single week from folks in Arcadia, Kamilche, Harstine Island, and everywhere in between. The big out-of-town companies dominate the ads, take your info, then vanish the second they see a 98584 zip code.

That’s exactly why Dooky Squad exists. While everyone else stops at the county line, we decided from the beginning to own Mason County and serve Shelton and the surrounding areas like they deserve: reliably, affordably, and without the excuses.

Coverage Map

Why Every Other Company Ghosts Shelton (and Why We Don’t)

Most pooper-scooper services are designed for city routes – tight neighborhoods, quick stops, 20 yards in a couple hours. A Shelton address throws their whole schedule (and fuel budget) into chaos. Olympia crews max out around Lacey. Tacoma crews draw the line at Gig Harbor. National chains? They’ll take your money and then “discover” they can’t make it work.

We looked at the map, saw a huge gap in real service for Mason County, and decided to fill it. Simple as that.

Shelton Backyards Hit Different

  • Heavy clay soil that holds smell like a grudge
  • 60+ inches of rain a year that washes bacteria straight toward Oakland Bay
  • Bigger rural lots = more dogs = exponentially more poop
  • Raccoons and deer who think your yard is their personal playground

We get it because we’re here every day. That’s why we show up prepared, scoop every corner, and haul it away so it never reaches the water.
