Jacob does an amazing job! He is professional, knowledgeable, competent and friendly. Good service and the landscape looks better than it has in years!
This is the first time I have spoken to one of your technicians. He was very helpful and gave me information about what they were doing to the lawn. Much appreciated.
Sam came out to follow up on the chinch bug problem we’ve been dealing with since July. He was knowledgeable, professional and genuinely determined to find a solution. He gave us the impression that he takes our concerns seriously and is committed to getting the problem resolved. We appreciate his dedication and his determination not to let us down!
Issues I have is communication with the company. I’m seeing more weeds in my backyard than when I started with them.
He did an excellent job
He was on time and did a great.job. He always does an excellent job.
Probably biggest rip off yard company. Shouldn't have to keep calling when yard is not improving. Then when you cancel they charge you weeks after the fact and tell you pretty much oh well. You can find better yard companies at half the cost.
7/8/26…Received our bimonthly charge from Dave’s not Pioneer. Protested as we thought we had been scammed only to learn that Dave’s is buying Pioneer. We received no notice from Pioneer. of this. To make things worse, our service man neglected to call us before he arrived so he could not access our back…

Jacob, great personality when speaking on the phone. Does a great job of taking care of my yard.
Patrick came today to do our bimonthly lawn spraying. He’s even did a great job inspecting the lawn and he’s even going to get an irrigation specialist out to check our sprinklers.

Robert visited our house recently to complete our lawn care service. Normally our technicians from other companies come out and simply say they sprayed and they will see me in a few months. He specified the exact kinds of weeds seen and told us they were treated. He pointed out that we need to water more, so he…

Sam is awesome. Took time to explain what he was doing and things I could to help my lawn. Thank you, Sam
Preston has been doing my lawn for a long time and always does a great job. He responds to text messages, etc. and will listen to any concerns I have and try to come up with solutions. I can’t recommend him enough!
It’s impossible to provide a valid review of a lawn treatment minutes after it’s been done, specifically if the homeowner is not even home when it’s done. In today’s case, I was home and the technician rang my doorbell. He introduced himself and spoke with me professionally. However, it is still impossible to rate…
He did a good job. Very polite to acknowledge he was on the job at my home.
