Episode Synopsis

Have you ever walked down the street and spotted a pile of dog doo just sitting there? Even with doo-doo bags available from the city or apartment complex, some folks just don’t bother to pick it up. It's gross, right? And let's be real—nobody wants that mess ending up on their shoes!Now, let me introduce you to Courtney Copeland. She made a big career change, leaving her corporate marketing job after over a decade to start her own dog waste removal service, SD Scoop Squad, in sunny San Diego, California. Courtney's journey is pretty inspiring! She shares how her love for dogs and her desire to tackle this “crappy” problem led her to her next career step. You might think, “Isn’t that a bit bougie? Can’t people just pick up after their pets?” But you’d be surprised at how many people genuinely need this service. Whether it's someone with a disability who can't bend down or just folks who can’t be bothered to use the free bags provided in their apartment complexes, there’s a real need out there.Courtney is out there making a difference, one scoop at a time, and helping pet owners keep their spaces clean and enjoyable. It's all about turning a problem into an opportunity and making life a little easier for everyone.Connect with CourtneyLearn more about SD Scoop Squad & book your service: https://www.sdscoopsquad.com/Follow SD Scoop Squad on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sdscoopsquadConnect on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/sdscoopsquad
