For Dog Owners

Yard Safety for Dog Owners in Central Texas

Your dog deserves a yard that is clean, pest-free, and safe. Paws & Pests Pro combines professional pest control with pet waste removal — designed specifically for homes with dogs in Pflugerville, Round Rock, Hutto, Manor, and Elgin.

Pet-Safe Pest Control — No Compromises

Traditional pest sprays can be dangerous for pets. At Paws & Pests Pro, every treatment is selected for effectiveness against pests and safety for your animals. We never use products that put your dog at risk.

Pet-Safe Pest Products

Every product we use is EPA-registered and labeled safe for homes with pets. We apply treatments to areas where pests enter and hide, keeping active ingredients away from where your dog plays.

Weekly Waste Removal

Our poop scoop team visits weekly to remove all pet waste from your yard. A clean yard means fewer pests, less bacteria, and a safer space for your dog and family.

Flea & Tick Yard Treatment

We target the shaded, moist areas where fleas and ticks wait for your dog. Professional yard treatment works alongside your vet-prescribed prevention for complete flea and tick protection.

Fire Ant Mound Elimination

Fire ants are one of the biggest dangers to dogs in Central Texas. A curious dog stepping on a mound can receive dozens of painful stings in seconds. We eliminate mounds on every visit.

Mosquito Barrier Protection

Mosquitoes transmit heartworm to dogs — a potentially fatal disease. Our monthly mosquito barrier treatment reduces mosquito populations in your yard and lowers the risk to your pets.

Post-Treatment Safety Protocol

After every treatment, we recommend keeping pets off treated surfaces for 30 to 60 minutes until dry. Once dry, your yard is completely safe for dogs, cats, and children.

The Hidden Health Risks of Pet Waste

Dog waste is not just unpleasant — it is a health hazard. Left in your yard, pet waste harbors parasites, bacteria, and pathogens that threaten your family and pets.

Roundworms & Hookworms

Dog feces can contain roundworm and hookworm eggs that survive in soil for years. Children playing in contaminated yards are at risk of accidental ingestion. Hookworm larvae can penetrate skin on contact.

Giardia & Coccidia

These intestinal parasites spread through infected feces and contaminated water. A single pile of dog waste can shed millions of cysts into your yard, infecting other pets and potentially humans.

E. coli & Salmonella

Harmful bacteria in pet waste wash into soil and groundwater with rain. The EPA classifies pet waste as a pollutant in the same category as toxic chemicals and oil spills.

Attracting Pests

Accumulated pet waste attracts flies, rats, and other pests to your yard. Fly larvae breed directly in waste, and rodents are drawn to the organic matter — creating a pest cycle that feeds on itself.

Pet Safety Shield

Every Paws & Pests Pro customer with pets receives our Pet Safety Shield — a set of protocols designed to keep your animals safe before, during, and after every treatment.

  • Real-time treatment notifications sent to your phone
  • Product safety data sheets available on request
  • Re-entry time clearly communicated after every visit
  • Pet-specific treatment adjustments for sensitive breeds
  • Free re-treatments if pests return between visits

Our Pet-Safe Product Commitment

We will never apply a product in your yard that we would not use in our own yards with our own pets. Every product in our inventory is EPA-registered, pet-safe when dry, and selected for low environmental impact. If you have questions about any product we use, we provide full safety data sheets on request.

Our technicians are trained to identify pet toys, water bowls, and food dishes before treatment — and to adjust application accordingly. Your pet's safety is not an afterthought. It is built into every step of our process.
