I think that the dent is too sharp and too large for a PDR, there are limits of what can be done.
If you get the door fixed through a body shop the saving grace is that they will only have to paint the bottom part with the paint seam under the molding and will not be noticeable because it is low and out of the way

I'd check to see if the lawn folks had insurance! Seriously, I had a window cracked by a thrown rock, and figured I was going to have to foot the bill, as it turns out the lawn guys had insurance, and covered a complete replacement.
