Poopy Puppy
A family-owned dog-waste removal service in Layton, Utah, running on software we wrote from scratch: instant ZIP-code quoting, subscription billing, route scheduling, a customer portal and an AI assistant.
What Poopy Puppy is
Poopy Puppy is a real business with real trucks. A trained tech comes to your yard on a set schedule and clears everywhere a dog might go: lawn, flower beds, gravel, under bushes, along the fence line. The waste is bagged and hauled away rather than left in your bin, equipment is disinfected between yards, and on the way out we close the gate, photograph it, and send you the photo. No contracts, no call centre, and a free re-scoop if we miss a spot.
It is also the clearest example of what we build. Poopy Puppy does not run on off-the-shelf field-service software. Every layer underneath it was written here, and all of it is in production today serving paying customers. If your business needs something built to fit it this well, this page is what that looks like when it is done.
What the platform does
Everything a waste-removal business needs to quote, schedule, bill and prove the work.
Instant ZIP quoting
Customers type a ZIP code, see their price immediately, and finish signup online in about five minutes, with no phone call.
Subscription billing
Stripe-backed recurring plans with a card or bank account on file, automatic charges and emailed receipts.
Route scheduling
Visits grouped by day and area so crews are not crossing town twice, with a heads-up text about an hour before arrival.
Self-service portal
Customers pause, skip, change plan or cancel themselves. No fees, no phone calls, no ticket queue.
Proof of service
Every visit ends with a photo of the closed gate uploaded to the customer's portal, the answer to "were you actually here?"
AI assistant on the site
The same chatbot we sell answers questions on poopypuppy.com, grounded in Poopy Puppy's own knowledge base.
How it came together
From a service area and an idea to a business taking payments, one layer at a time.
-
1
Started with the customer
A ZIP code in, a real price out, and a signup that finishes in Stripe in about five minutes. No phone call, no callback.
-
2
Built the crew's day
Routes grouped by zone, a calendar that fills itself from each plan, and a tech view with today's stops, gate notes and one-tap photos.
-
3
Gave the owners the numbers
Revenue, active plans, failed payments and growth across every franchise, with an audit trail behind all of it.
-
4
Kept it easy to change
Prices, trial length, SMS wording and 40-odd other settings are edited in the portal, not redeployed. The AI assistant came later, the same way.
What we built for it
Poopy Puppy started as an idea and a service area. Everything a customer touches, and everything the crew and the owners run on, was designed and written here, and all of it is live today.
- Marketing site with instant ZIP-code quoting and an online signup that finishes in Stripe
- Customer portal for pausing, skipping, changing plans and cancelling without a phone call

- Pricing matrix per frequency and add-on, with per-franchise overrides; existing customers keep the price they signed up at

Questions
The things people ask before they commit.
Can I buy or licence this platform?
Not yet. Poopy Puppy is a working business, not a product on a shelf. Subscriptions for operators in other areas are coming. Until then, the quickest route is a consultation about what your own business needs.
Can I see it running?
Yes. poopypuppy.com is this platform in production, taking real orders and real payments every day. The assistant answering questions there is the AI Chatbot we sell.
Could you build something like this for my business?
That is what we do. Poopy Puppy was built for pet waste, but the same shape fits any recurring visit-based service: quote by area, bill on a schedule, route the crew, prove the visit. Book a consultation and we will talk through yours.
Does it handle more than one city?
Yes. Each city or territory is a franchise with its own owners, techs, zones, routes and pricing, all under one company account. The owners see the whole business in one place and each franchise owner sees theirs.
What happens to existing customers when prices change?
Nothing. New quotes use the new prices. Anyone already subscribed keeps the price they signed up at until they change plans themselves.
What is for sale today?
The AI assistant on the site is our AI Chatbot, built and installed for your website. Everything else on this page is available as custom work, starting with a consultation.
Subscriptions coming soon
We are working on a way for operators in other areas to run their own service on this platform. Until then, poopypuppy.com is the place to see it working, and if you want something like it for your own business, that is a conversation we would love to have.
