“An enormous thank you to Michelle for her kindness and care of our aging Maggie. It was just a short week later that we discovered Maggie would have to be put down due to discovery of her advanced cancer. MIchelle provided a safe, loving environment for Maggie to visit when we needed some help. We are so gratefull and were touched by her compassion.”

“First time client, and have nothing but good things to say. At drop off, I was able to go inside with Jameson and get him settled in. She was very attentive to Jameson. Everytime I would reach out she would answer promptly and send pictures checking in. Pickup was easy, quick no issues. Highly recommend and plan on booking again in the future!”

“Cheyenne was amazing! My boy Leroy is a classic Velcro dog. He thinks he’s a person, so he always has to be with his human pack. Cheyenne made sure he was included in everything, and sent the cutest pictures that both cracked me up and made me miss him even more while I was gone. I felt so relieved and comfortable, knowing she was taking such good care of him. Even though we just met her, they totally clicked on their meet and greet so I knew my baby boy was in good hands.”

“We were looking for a place to board our special needs Golden and stumbled upon the River app. It was our first time boarding him and we didn’t want to leave him at a kennel. Parker took to Heather right away when we went for our initial visit, and enjoyed exploring one of the many fenced in areas of her property. Her experience with animals, particularly ones of the special needs variety, was what drew me to her. She kept me updated on how Parker was doing (response time was fast) and sent pictures of him on vacation at the farm!! Parker loved staying with her, and will be back again!!”

We really appreciated her updates about how he was doing and the funny pictures she sent of him getting on with the other dogs. Jordan even accepted us at the last minute when our previous boarder fell through. House is easy to find and in a good neighborhood. Would definitely recommend!”

“An exceptional stay for my little pupper. They were very communicative accommodating and very kind. This was actually the first time we've ever left our dog with someone and will definitely be doing it again with them. They also were able to help me out in a pinch last minute to walk her the following week. Can't say enough positive things about them”

About: Hi! I’m Kristyn — lifelong dog lover and proud pup‑obsessed human. I’ve had dogs my entire life, and caring for them has always been one of the happiest parts of my day. I’m newer to official dog sitting, but giving dogs attention, comfort, and a sense of safety is something that comes naturally to me. Whether it’s playtime, snuggles, walks, or just being a calm presence, I love meeting dogs exactly where they are and making sure they feel at home. I treat every pup like my own, and I’m all about creating a fun, loving, low‑stress experience for both dogs and their humans. If your dog loves affection, routine, and a sitter who genuinely enjoys their company, we’ll be a great match. Dog sitting fits naturally into my routine because caring for dogs is already a big part of my everyday life—I have a dog of my own, so I’m used to building my day around walks, attention, and companionship. I work full‑time, but I offer sitting during the times when I can be fully present, like my work‑from‑home days, weekends, vacation weeks, and days off. Those are the moments when I can give dogs the consistency and care they deserve. I’m also open to weekend and extended stays when my schedule allows. My goal is always to make sure every pup feels safe, loved, and well‑looked‑after while they’re with me. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. We have a fully fenced‑in yard that gives dogs plenty of safe space to run, sniff, and explore. Our dog Sammy is super‑friendly. She absolutely loves people, kids, and especially other dogs—she’s a great built‑in playmate for visiting pups. I have two kids (11 & 14) who adore helping with walks, playtime, and giving gentle attention, so dogs get lots of love and interaction throughout the day.

We had such a great experience boarding our boy with Kathleen. From start to finish, she was communicative and made us feel completely at ease. She sent lots of pictures and updates, which we really appreciated, it was so reassuring to see how happy and well cared for our dog was while we were away. Kathleen went above and beyond, taking him on plenty of walks and fun adventures. It felt like he was on his own little vacation! When we picked him up, he was relaxed, happy, and clearly had been very well cared for. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Kathleen again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter.
