A man trying to save time by cleaning his home got more than he bargained for when his robot smeared dog poo all over the floor.

Ryan Landy set his automatic Roomba device to vacuum his home in Coral Springs, Florida

The hands-free machine ended up running into faeces left behind from his dog — causing far more of a mess than Ryan had on his hands to begin with.

The 23-year-old aspiring film director took to Facebook to jokingly declare he would 'need therapy' after the gross incident.

The Florida-native also shared the epic house cleaning fail to Reddit, where it became the most popular post of the day. Over 82,000 people have interacted with Landy's post in the 'Well, That Sucks' forum. 

Landy stated that the dog in question was a new rescue pup adopted by the family. The new addition to the household is also still being trained. 

'We had the Roomba in a room with the door closed, the dog opened the door and took a s**t, couldn’t have really predicted it lol,' Landy told members.
