FRANCHISE RESALES

Buy a Scoop Soldiers Franchise

Scoop Soldiers is a home-based pet waste removal franchise serving residential and commercial customers across assigned territories. The business runs on recurring weekly service: crews visit clients on a set schedule to clear yards, with scheduling, billing and customer acquisition handled through a centralized command center that supports the route-based model.

Founded in 2010 in McKinney, Texas by EJ McCoy and Josh Cahill, the company grew out of the founders’ lawn and landscaping background before launching franchising in 2019. It has since expanded to more than 100 franchised territories across the United States. Corporate functions including accounting, media, HR and planning run through White Picket Team Management, the founders’ multi-brand management group.

The brand offers two entry routes: start-up territories a franchisee builds from the ground up, and enhanced markets the corporate team has already developed before handing them over. Scoop Soldiers positions itself as a low-overhead, scalable concept suited to semi-absentee or multi-territory ownership.

Why buy a Scoop Soldiers Franchise?

Pet waste removal is a recurring-revenue service in a pet care category that has stayed resilient across economic cycles. Buying a Scoop Soldiers franchise gives an owner an established brand, defined operating systems and a centralized support center handling scheduling, billing and lead generation, rather than building a solo scooping business from scratch.

The home-based, route-based model keeps overhead low, with no retail lease or storefront to maintain, and the recurring weekly service structure supports predictable cash flow and the potential to add density and additional territories over time. The brand markets actively to veterans and backs franchisees with social and content marketing. Its enhanced-market option, where corporate develops a market before transferring it, shows the system already values handing over a running book of business.

Scoop Soldiers – Additional  Information

  1. Training & Support

    Initial training combines 28.5 hours of classroom instruction with 11.5 hours of on-the-job training, covering operations, marketing and client acquisition to Scoop Soldiers standards. Ongoing support runs through a centralized command center that handles scheduling, billing and customer acquisition, freeing owners to manage routes and staff, alongside social and content marketing support and the annual Scoop Swoop franchise conference. Resale buyers should confirm with Scoop Soldiers what onboarding and command-center system access transfer to a new owner when an existing territory changes hands.

  2. Ideal Owner

    Scoop Soldiers suits hands-on local operators comfortable managing field crews, planning routes and keeping recurring customers happy. No pet-industry or franchising experience is required, though owners should be organized, customer-service minded and willing to use technology to run scheduling and billing. The model is operations- and people-led rather than sales-heavy, and its low-overhead structure can fit owners seeking semi-absentee involvement or those building density across multiple territories. Genuine comfort around dogs and the outdoors helps.

  3. Recognition & Awards

    Scoop Soldiers earned a place on the Inc. 5000 list of the fastest-growing private US companies in both 2021 and 2022, ranking No. 3573 in 2022 and 61st within the consumer services category. As an emerging franchise, it has drawn franchise-industry media coverage for its rapid territory growth since 2019 and its veteran-friendly positioning. For resale buyers, brand-level recognition should be weighed alongside the reputation of the specific territory, including local reviews, referral sources and community visibility.

  4. Industry / Market

    US pet spending reached $158 billion in 2025 (American Pet Products Association), with the non-veterinary "other services" segment that includes grooming, walking and waste removal at $12.3 billion in 2024, up nearly 8% over 2022. Outsourced pet care is driven by rising dog ownership, busy dual-income households and a willingness to pay for convenience, and weekly waste removal generates recurring rather than one-off revenue. For resale buyers, demand is steady and recession-resistant, but results depend heavily on local route density and customer retention.
