Who we are
Locally owned, Dog obsessed.
Meet the two people behind Pickup Crew, and why they started a dog poop scooping company in Johnson County.
Hi, I'm Ken.
I've called Indiana home my entire life, except for the years I spent serving in the military. I'm an IU alumni, go Hoosiers, and Ball State grad chirp, chirp. Johnson County isn't just where I live. It's where I've built businesses, raised my family, and put down roots.
For more than a decade, I led clinical operations at Cornerstone Autism Center, a statewide organization headquartered right here on Main Street in Greenwood. I'm proud to have been part of a team that helped support hundreds of families and professionals across Indiana.
Then came the dogs.
In 2020, I opened Dogtopia of Greenwood, bringing dog daycare, boarding, and spa services to the Center Grove community. I also established a separate dog training business, Top Tier K9 - Greenwood. Dogtopia has since become a family legacy, with my son Nick, who has been involved since the doors first opened on State Road 135, taking over ownership.
And now there's Pickup Crew.
It's a locally owned, veteran-owned pet waste removal company built around something simple: taking care of our neighbors, their dogs, and the community we're proud to call home.

Hi, I'm Larry.
Center Grove has always been home to me.
I grew up here, played sports here, and proudly graduated from Center Grove High School. Today, my son CJ and I call Bargersville home, and I'm proud to watch him follow in my footsteps as a freshman at Center Grove High School.
Our family's roots in this community run deep. My sister recently retired after a career teaching at Center Grove Elementary School, and generations of our family have called this area home.
That's one of the things I love about being part of Pickup Crew. We're not just working in the neighborhoods we serve. These are the same neighborhoods where we've grown up, raised our families, made friends, and built lasting relationships.
For me, Pickup Crew is about more than keeping yards clean. It's about doing good work, treating people right, and taking care of the community that's always taken care of us.
