Scruffy Buns is a small, independent mid-day walking service that offers safe and fun exercise outings and potty breaks in downtown Omaha and Midtown Crossing.
My name is Ronnie, a downtown resident and proud mother of a scruffy bearded Chihuahua mix rescue.
My love of dogs prompted me to start full time pet sitting businesses in Colorado and Florida. Now that my husband and I have permanently settled into downtown Omaha, I'm excited to return to doing what I love: taking care of your furry besties with fun-filled walkies.
I operate this business solo, which means you and your dog will become familiar with just one walker.
• experienced doggie caretaker (owned a pet care business for 10 years and
took care of hundreds of dogs, including rescues, special needs doggies, blind, deaf, shy doggies and as well as distinguished seniors)
• independent, local, registered Omaha business
• fully insured for your protection
• references (from past clients who are very familiar with me and my services)
• owner-operated (you will always know who is showing up to walk your dog....me!)
• criminal background checked
• dog CPR/First Aid certified
• member of Pet Sitters International (an organization that offers premium dog walking insurance policies, access to dog first aid/CPR training as well as a plethora of dog safety/health resources)
This website is under construction while my business undergoes appropriate startup requirements.
In the meantime, feel free to contact me if you would like more information!
Thank you for visiting,
-Ronnie

Your dog will remain on leash at all times.
I do not offer off-leash dog park outings.
Cancellations
I understand that unexpected circumstances occur and you may need to cancel a scheduled dog walk. There is no charge for cancellations. Just notify as soon as you can.
Holidays
There will be no walking services provided on the following holidays:
Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day.
Other People With Access To Your Home
Please notify me about any person(s) who have access to your home while you are away, including maid service, contractors, relatives, etc.
Severe Weather
During extreme weather conditions, you dog’s walk will be shortened and followed by indoor play time.
I take extra precautions when it comes to our typical Omaha high heat indexes, especially for our brachycephalic friends(flat or short snouted), senior citizens and dogs with heavy coats. I always test the sidewalks for heat to protect your baby's paws. When Omaha has its typical high heat index days, your dog will be walked in the shade as much as possible and the walk will be shortened.

Westgate Animal Hospital.
My go-to Omaha vet clinic for my Chihuahua. Such a kind, caring staff and just all around wonderful veterinary care.
VEG ER For Pets
I'm excited to learn that Omaha now has an emergency veterinary clinic that is open 365 days a year, 24 hours a day.
Located at 132nd & Maple.
Downtown Hounds is my go-to groomer for my Chi, who absolutely despises having his nails trimmed. Their groomer is the sweetest person ever! She utilizes a special suspended doggie sling that prevents my dog from thrashing and biting. Nail trims are no longer a dreadful nightmare, thanks to this business.
