Who is 805 Poop Patrol?

When you see 805 Poop Patrol on your property; you can rest easy knowing:

We Never Blend In: We always arrive in marked vehicles and official company uniforms. You and your neighbors will always know who is on your property.

The “Double-Check” Gate Policy: A dog owner’s worst nightmare is an unsecured gate. We physically double-check, pull and test every single gate handle before we drive away. If your dogs are out in the yard, we ensure they are inside before we leave.

Top Tier Biosecurity: We love the whole 805 dog community, which means we don’t spread germs between yards. Our tools and boots are thoroughly sanitized with surgical grade sanitization solution Triple 2 prior to the start of a route, and after each stop.

Fully Insured and Vetted: Our team is fully insured and background checked. We treat your property and pets with the exact same love and respect we treat our own.

Industry Professionals: 805 Poop Patrol is a proud member of APAWS, the Association of Professional Animal Waste Specialists, and our founder Marc is a U.S. Marine veteran and former sheriff’s deputy.

Founder and Chief Poop Officer

“The best part of this job? Getting to meet the incredible dogs of the 805 and giving families their weekends back.”

Marc started 805 Poop Patrol with a simple mission: to handle one chore no dog owner really wants to do, with a level of professionalism you usually don’t see in the industry. When he isn’t managing routes or making backyards safe for barefoot walking, you can find him shooting and editing YouTube videos for his cooking channel Little Kitchen Big Food or creating fun woodworking projects in the wood shop.

Favorite Dog Breed: All of them

Number of Treats Carried: Usually 10 at a minimum.

Best Part of the job: Meeting and making new dog friends.
