ABOUT US

Our Story

Turd Terminators™ was founded by Michael and Kristin Van Gerpen—West Omaha parents of five and proud dog lovers—who were tired of the endless “whose turn is it?” battle over scooping the yard. After years of pleading with their kids to help, they realized they weren’t alone. Dog waste was a daily nuisance no one wanted to deal with.

So, they did something about it. What started as a simple solution for their own backyard turned into a full-blown mission to make dog ownership a little less crappy for everyone. Today, Turd Terminators™ proudly serves West Omaha and Elkhorn, offering a hassle-free way to keep yards clean, fresh, and poop-free—so you can enjoy your outdoor space without constantly watching your step.

OUR TEAM

A Family-Owned Business

Turd Terminators™ is a family-owned business. While Michael and Kristin run the show and handle most of the dirty work themselves, don’t be surprised if you spot one of their kids pitching in too!
