What is the proposal process like?

CoPS inspects the community to select or verify pet waste station and trash can locations, then usually provides a detailed proposal within 72 hours of receiving the request for proposal.

What does pet waste station service include?

Service includes USDA Certified Biobased dog waste bags and can liners, waste pickup around each station, station inspection, repair reporting, and removal of collected waste from the property.

Does CoPS on Doody require a long-term contract?

No. The community signs the proposal, and service continues until CoPS receives written notice from a community representative.

Will the community receive a service completion notice?

Yes. Communities may choose to receive an email or text notification when service is complete.

Are CoPS on Doody team members background-checked and insured?

Yes. CoPS states that every team member is background-checked before working on a property and that the company carries commercial liability insurance.

Sound familiar?

Switching Providers Can Feel Riskier Than Staying Put.

You’re not sure how to end service with your current provider without a gap.
Nobody has explained what happens between signing and the first visit.
You don’t know what a service report should show, or who receives it.
Concerns wait for the next invoice because there’s no clear way to raise them.

The Transition Guide™ lays out every step, so your property team knows what happens next and what to prepare.

What the guide covers

A clear path from signed agreement to day 30.

The Transition Guide™ is a five-page walkthrough for property managers and HOA boards switching to CoPS on Doody®. It covers the four phases of the handoff, your part in it, and what you should have in hand before day 1.

It shows how station placement and service frequency are set, how to read your first service report, and how to report a concern without waiting for the 30-day check-in.

It introduces the Community Cleanliness Protocol, the written operating standard you receive before your first service visit, so your team knows what CoPS is accountable for.

Inside the guide

A preview of what’s inside.

What you should have before day 1

A confirmed start date and service plan, a station and location record, your CoPS contact and reporting process, and the Community Cleanliness Protocol.

How placement and frequency are set

Stations are reviewed against walking routes, pet activity, waste buildup, dispenser use, and receptacle capacity during the onboarding walk.

How to read your first service report

Look for the date and timestamp, the stations recorded as serviced, and any exceptions, such as blocked access or a damaged dispenser.

What to decide at the 30-day check-in

The ongoing schedule and covered locations, any approved changes, and an owner and follow-up date for every open item.

Plus your part in the handoff, how to report a concern, and a first-30-days checklist.
