Reuniting Lost Pets With Their Families

While primarily serving Douglas and Sarpy counties, the group has also assisted with searches in special cases across various cities in Nebraska and Iowa.

Over time, we've worked to expand our services and tools to support your search efforts. We aim to be your go-to resource for help for finding your lost pet.

Wonderful page!! So many lost pets have been reunited with their families that probably wouldn't have been before this page was started. It also unites pet lovers all over the Omaha area. They've managed to obtain an army of people who keep an eye out for lost pets. And have increased awareness of wandering animals. Enabling people to bring attention to those wandering pets.

Amazing group of people with the kindest hearts! So many have reached out and ventured out into the blistering cold to help search for my lost Shiba Inu, Nya. After 5 long hours of searching in the cold, she was found and brought home safe! Thank you all!

We go above and beyond to help reunite families with their pets.

Over the past year, our tiny team of trappers and our single drone pilot have poured their hearts into searches—working late into the night, skipping weekends, pushing through exhaustion, cold and heat—desperately trying to bring lost pets back home to the families who are aching without them. With just a handful of trappers and only one person in the sky, every “no” we have to give tears us apart. We lie awake thinking about the ones we couldn’t reach because we simply didn’t have enough hands, enough time, enough help.
