PARRISH — The pooper scooper industry is growing in the region.

DoodyCalls, a nationwide leader in pet waste removal services, announced a new office will be opening in Parrish, in north Manatee County. Currently, the company operates across 23 states. 

Marla Moran and her children, Colton and Kara, are at the helm of the new Parrish franchise.

Colton and his wife, Kirsti, both owners, are based in California while Marla and Kara are in Florida.

"Our family is thrilled to be part of the DoodyCalls family and the Authority Brands team while helping give members of our community precious time with their families and pets," says Kara Kelsey, COO of DoodyCalls on the Suncoast, in a statement. "We have hearts to serve and a deep appreciation for our community so we cannot wait to help keep this beautiful place clean and healthy."

The family group plans to open two DoodyCalls franchise locations in 2022. 

"The Morans' dedication to family and building a legacy through a joint business venture gives us great confidence in their franchise openings in Florida" says Jacob D'Aniello, COO and founder of DoodyCalls, in the release. "We are confident in their success and how well they will service their community."
