Our Team
Meet the Poo Patrol
Somebody has to do it, and it turns out we love it. Poo Patrol is a family business out of Cedar Rapids: two owners, one very serious German Shepherd, and a crew of local techs who scoop yards across 75+ Iowa towns every week.
These are the people behind the truck in your driveway.


Owners
Link & Melissa
Poo Patrol is ours: no franchise, no call center three states away. We live in Cedar Rapids, our kids play in these yards, and the phone number on the truck rings to people who actually run the company.
We are a verified service-disabled veteran-owned small business, and a portion of every single visit goes to Deafinitely Dogs to help place service animals with veterans here in our community.
- Veteran owned and family operated
- Scooping yards in 75+ Iowa towns every week
- Based in southeast Cedar Rapids


The rest of the crew
The people who keep the schedule full, the phones answered, and the trucks pointed at the right yards.

Bear
Chief Operating Officer
Bear is a German Shepherd who takes the title seriously. He supervises truck loading, greets everyone who comes to the shop, and is the reason we know exactly what one big dog can do to a lawn in a week.

Matt
Marketing Director
Matt runs marketing for Poo Patrol: the ads you see, the postcards that land in your mailbox, and the campaigns that keep our trucks busy from Cedar Rapids to Des Moines.

Jayran
Marketing Coordinator
Jayran keeps marketing moving day to day: social posts, email, and all the small details that make Poo Patrol easy to find and easy to hire.
And the techs in your yard
Our technicians are the ones you will actually meet, and we hire them the way we would hire someone to watch our own dog. Every tech on the route meets the same bar:
- Fully insured and background-checked
- Uniformed, in a branded Poo Patrol truck
- Trained on the same grid pattern, every yard
- Texts before arrival and when the job is done
Think you would fit on the crew? We are always glad to hear from good people. Get in touch or call or text us at 319-420-POOP.
