Meet Scoop N Piles
Scoop N Piles (formerly Pooper Troopers of West Michigan) is a locally owned family business, owned by Chuck and Sue Barnes, longtime Southwest Michigan residents. Sue was one of our first full-time scoop technicians; Chuck grew up on a farm near Battle Creek.
Our crew picks up after your dogs on a schedule you choose, texts you when we're on the way and emails you a photo of your closed gate when we're done. All you have to do is enjoy your yard.
Chuck & Sue Barnes, Owners

Reviews
Thank you for trusting us with your yard!
“We do dog sitting for my son and occasionally for my sister in law. We're not used to cleaning up the messes but we learned about Pooper Trooper of GR. We call them when the pets are here and they take care of that. No more stepping on a pile when I mow the grass.”
“Highly recommend their services! We are part of their bi-weekly program and it has been the best service we have ever signed up for! Give your dogs the backyard they deserve”
“So much easier than getting my husband and kids to do it. They do a great job.”
“I have been using Pooper Troopers for nearly 2 years now. They have done a great job on a weekly basis keeping my yard cleaned up for myself and my dog. It’s a job that I really did not like having to do and it’s great as they also work throughout the winter as well. They always let you know they’re on their way each visit and after they have completed the service. I highly recommend them and the service they provide. 🐶”
“Always on time. Great communication via text. Very rarely do I find a missed poo.”
“Great friendly team! Excellent performance. Thank you so much for services, everyone was so polite and respectful, very fast yet thorough, just an all around pleasant experience! Keep up the great work!”

“I highly recommend pooper troopers I used them this spring after the snow was gone. They did a fabulous job. You would never have known I had a dog. They were promt and efficient. I clean up after my dog until the snow flies. The yard looked wonderful. I will use again come spring.”

“This was our first time using Pooper Trooper, not only was scheduling fast and easy, our tech Kyle did an amazing job! He was fast and quiet, he didn’t even set the dogs off!! Our dogs bark at the wind blowing, so that was a bonus! Thank you for your service! Our second week of services and Heather was fantastic!!! She wasn’t even bothered by our children playing in the yard and pestering her!”

“Heather did an incredible job of getting up all of the dog poop from our yard (in the rain, so definitely extra credit there). We have a large dog and the after-winter clean-up is substantial. I cannot overstate the value of having Pooper Troopers come out and take care of it, as it is difficult to find time to get out and clear it all right now. Thank you for the excellent job, Heather!”
“Heather did a fantastic job - super professional and cleaned up every speck!”
“Josh. Did a great job!! Thank you so much!!”
“We had our first scheduled visit from Pooper Troopers. It has been a long busy winter for us, and the mess from our dog babies got away from us. Kyle and another worker came and cleaned up our back yard, and did a Fantastic job!!! I would highly recommend Pooper Troopers to every one.”
“Great job!!”
“Great people to deal with and great work!”
