Tidy Turf

George is great. I hate to say it, but we had neglected our yard for a while. He got it into tip top shape in one visit! He takes care of any animal stuff he might find. He’s very methodical and comes rain or shine and always on time. This is a treat to have if you’re a pet owner!
Tidy Turf is the best!!! Thank you George!!!

I have been using tidy turf for several months now and I’m hooked! This is a service I cannot live without, and George is great! He is reliable and super understanding (one time I forgot to unlock the gate for him and wasn’t home. whoops!) If you are considering this type of service look no further, my three dogs greatly appreciate it, and its one less thing I have to think about in my busy life!

George is the most considerate person. We had some horseback riders leave a load of excrement in front of house and the riders were quite rude and certainly did not offer to help clean up the mess. George was nearby and offered to help. I would think that anyone who needs help cleaning up their property of pet debris would be please and lucky to work with him. What a nice guy!!!

Tidy Turf has provided reliable, flexible and caring service to our family for years. We have never had any issues or problems with their service. George is a pleasure to work with and he has a big heart for dogs, even difficult dogs.

So happy to have found this company. My husband and I have a very busy season from October-​January and we always call George to help us out. He fits us in to his schedule right away (we always call last minute). He is so professional and efficient, Rain or shine. We will always be returning customers.

George is fantastic! Rain or shine, he’s there, extremely reliable, reasonably priced, and very pleasant to work with – what more can I say? Working full time, having 2 crazy kids and having a busy life, this service is worth every penny. I can’t thank this man enough!!!

I could not do with out George. He is always there, everything is picked up. Tidy Turf is best thing that could happen to your yard. The price is very reasonable even for someone on a fixed income.

What would I do without George? Pick up way too much dog poop, that’s what. I tell all my friends that this is my personal splurge. Some people get cleaners, personal trainers, or chefs; I get a dog poop guy! He has been picking up after my two JR’s once a week every week for a year now and my has also been picking up after my boyfriend’s lab/​great dane for the past few months too (sorry!!). He is reliable, great with the dogs, and invoices consistently. Comes and goes without a trace, thank goodness! I am ending my service since my now live in boyfriend is taking on the chore and I have to say, it was a hard phone call to make since his services have been superb. I would recommend him to anyone with pups who simply do not have the time, or desire, to deal with dog poop.

Have been Tidied by Tidy Turf since the beginning, and I am so grateful for their dependable, excellent service. Having two large dogs, makes it almost a necessity to have George Gadda’s great help. Thanks, George!

George is the best. He takes care of our yards at home and at work. He has reasonable prices and is totally reliable. I don’t know what we’d do without him and our hillside, large yard. Our three dogs make quite a mess, and they love to visit with George every Wednesday.
Our office was unoccupied for a year before we bought it, so the neighbors decided to walk their dogs there and not pick up the poop. It was a horrible mess when we moved in, and our wonderful neighbors are not trainable — they still use our yard as a dog park. Actually, people who go to dog parks tend to be responsible and pick up the poop. The solution? Call George and don’t think about it anymore. It’s great to not have to chase after our neighbors every time they walk their dogs on our property…

Is it weird that this is my second review that involves dog poop??? Anyhow… I’m not going to think too deeply about that and move on.
I’ve got a 60 pound pit, and she poops, a lot. I mean, she eats twice a day but poops four times! How is that even possible?!
I also have a yard where the weeds like to grow wild… like you whack them one day, and the next day, they’re a foot tall.
Sometimes, I don’t have it in me to take my dog for a walk… last three weeks especially have been rough since I’ve been knocked out by the plague that’s been going around. So I’d let her go poop in the yard. Yay for me… boo for my poor neighbors that would like to enjoy the yard as well.
So, I called George from Tidy Turf to come to the rescue. Less than an hour and a very reasonable fee later, George had the yard poop-​free, and even offered to come back the following week to make sure no spots had been missed since he guarantees his work!
And for those that actually can’t pick up poop in their own yards on a permanent basis, George will come out weekly, and if you have 1 – 2 dogs will charge just $ 15 to do a weekly cleaning.
Most of all though, for a guy that has to literally handle shit all day, he’s remarkably pleasant! I mean, he just sort of exudes a «good guy vibe» that you just can’t pinpoint.
I’d hire him again in a heartbeat and if I ever have something happen again where I can’t pick up the poo for weeks at a time (like this plague I’m getting over), I know exactly who to call!
Thanks George!!!

We have this unusual little back yard deep within the borders of San Francisco.
Somehow, it manages to be the lowest spot on the entire property. This is bad for (at least) two reasons… it’s below the tree line, so we never notice it’s messy. And then, to make it worse, any and all odors then waft up out of the yard into all the neighboring yards.
And, it turns out, the people at the back fence have a really nice back yard for hosting little kid parties. Which they do. Frequently.
Those poor little rugrats. They must have endured quite a bit of… unpleasantness… before I called George.
It’s been over a year now. Like clockwork, every week, the yard is magically cleaned, like as if a ninja snuck in through the side door and vacuum cleaned it. It’s just… empty.
No odors. No neighbor complaints.
Best check I write each month.

George runs an outstanding business! He is very professional, timely, friendly and above all dependable. As a manager of a local park district George has serviced multiple areas for me for many years. He has made a point to check in with me on a regular basis and provide friendly service to the public. Many people I see thank me for his services and his positive attitude.
George is wonderful! 5 Stars all the way!

I hired George so long ago, I can’t even tell you the year, then I canceled the service, and re hired him about three years ago due to my health problems. He’s on time every week, very friendly, personable, and caring. When my son died last year, he showed up to clean the yard, and I was so distraught, I’d forgotten to pay him, then one of my sons friends said «The man said don’t worry about paying for this week» — who does that? Not many people, that’s for sure. He always brings a holiday card and cookies for my dogs, they HATE him, but I LOVE his service!!! I highly recommend Tidy Turf.
HOWEVER … he’s not been here for two weeks, so, I’m a bit concerned, so if anyone knows what’s going on, let me know — I did leave a message, and know he and his wife were going on vacation, but I thought it was only for one week. Hoping all is well.

I live in the city of San Francisco and hired Tidy Turf over a year ago when we had our first baby and it has been great!!! It is so nice not having to pick up after my dogs! I feel complete comfortable with George having access to our yard/​house. Our dogs love him and he is always very conscientious about locking up.

I have two dogs and two cats that are free to roam out in my yard and front garden anytime they want. But I simply don’t have the time to go out there and search for where they each last anointed the grounds. So my dog walker suggested I use George. What a great idea that was. I’ve been so happy with George’s service. And, I think I’ve been using his services now for almost 2 years. George is great and never misses the weekly scheduled Wednesdays, unless he’s scheduled a vacation.
He’s such a nice guy too. I feel confident that my grounds outside are clean. And George even comes prepared with doggie biscuits for when my dogs give him a hard time.
This is a very professional service and a very necessary one for my household. I’m so glad I hired him and would highly recommend him to anyone out there in need of his services.

George has been doing my yard for 4 years now, and I couldn’t be happier. He’s very thorough, and pleasant to deal with. He does what I can’t, and does it with a smile.

OK, maybe I shouldn’t go public with this, but I haven’t scooped my dog’s poop in about a year. Yet, my big yard and lawn is still child-​friendly and open for guests to hang out without danger, because Tidy Turf has been scooping for me!
George is terrific — friendly, professional, great with dogs and as reliable as a Swiss train. I wish everyone I paid to do services for me was more like him. Would be off-​the-​charts perfect if he used PayPal or some other online billing system, but that is just a nit.
Totally worth the price.

George is a nice and friendly guy. Knows dogs and how to act around different behaving dogs. I had a slumber party that lasted over a week with my dog and puppy plus 2 other huge dogs. I called to see if George could come the same day. I was in luck he was 10 mins away. He came in, met my dog and puppy. They both loved him (the puppy was a little shy and didn’t know what to think about his poop removal outfit).
Give him a go!
BTW — he services Sonoma, Marin, and San Francisco.

Well… here is an update I hate to write. I had to cancel the services of Tidy Turf yesterday due to Max passing away. I made a very emotional phone call last night and let George know what had happened. I asked if he could come one more time to do a last clean up and I would pay whatever he wanted.
He showed up today… and went about his cleaning. He gave us a bill like her normally would. He bills monthly and there was no way he said he would charge us for today. He was caring and considerate.
I think what I really liked the best about George and his business is he was so good at making sure all messes were cleaned, patio washed down every time he visited which was twice a week. Mess removed and nothing was ever missed. He would normally just leave the bill at the front door with a treat for Max each time.
Maybe I was lazy, but I didn’t like cleaning up dog poop… and the stress it would cause in my relationship with my mother wasn’t worth it for us because I would ignore it as long as possible. Once George came into our lives we were much happier. For us the cost was $ 104 a month for 2 times a week. So worth it. I hope you give him a try. I think you will be very pleased.
