We provide pet waste removal throughout Uptown and Fourth Ward. Our crew services townhomes, courtyards, and small yards across this urban neighborhood, including properties near Romare Bearden Park.
Uptown dog owners face a unique challenge: elevator timing. In high-rises, getting a dog from the 20th floor to ground level for a bathroom break takes 5-10 minutes each way. By the time you're outside, that small patch of grass better be clean. And it won't be unless someone's handling it.
Fourth Ward is Uptown's hidden gem for dog owners. It has the Ninth Street Dog Park — Charlotte's first urban dog park at 417 W 9th St — and actual yards on some of the historic homes. Most Uptown high-rises have their own pet policies on top of city law: designated relief areas, weight limits, sometimes breed restrictions. Fourth Ward tends to be more relaxed about large breeds than the newer towers.
Frazier Park Dog Park is the premier off-leash option near Uptown — 1.3 acres with separate fenced areas for large and small dogs, plus greenway trails along Irwin Creek. For the full experience, Skiptown in South End is one LYNX Blue Line stop away — you can ride the light rail with your dog and be there in minutes.
We handle gated courtyards, townhome patios, building-specific access, and Fourth Ward's compact lots. Just share your access info during signup and we show up on the same day every week.
Romare Bearden Park is a beautiful 5.4-acre park right in Uptown with landscaped gardens and walking paths — leashed dogs welcome. But it's a public space, not your yard. For the private outdoor space you actually own, we keep it usable.
Urban space, urban solution. $70/month biweekly, $90/month weekly. Earn it down to as low as $45/month with Pack Perks referrals. Your outdoor square footage is too valuable to waste on waste.
Service coverage: Uptown is Fourth Ward courtyard-style yards, townhome patios in First Ward, and private outdoor spaces in condo communities. Compact spaces mean waste concentrates fast.
