“Lynn was a great sitter for our dog! She even accommodated with just a few days notice, with no time to set up a meet and greet beforehand as it was just after the holiday. Even though our dog is used to country living, Lynn made sure he wasn’t too stressed and took our German Shorthair out on nature walks several times a day. She’s very attentive to the dog’s needs.”

“Erica and Ciara did a great job taking care of my Cardigan Corgi for a couple days. He doesn't spend a lot of time around other dogs and recently was attacked while walking, so I was initially worried about how he would do with their dogs, but theirs are well trained and he fit into the pack quite easily, it seems. They understood his caution, given what he had been through, and they undertook appropriate precautions when exposing him to their dogs and others. In general, it seemed like a good experience for everyone and he made a couple more dog friends! I will definitely be a return (and repeat) customer.”

“Cindy took great care of our dog Lily. She kept me updated on how she was doing and sent pictures. She was flexible with scheduling, quick to respond and friendly. I could tell she enjoyed being with animals.”

“Alicia took my dog on very short notice when my other dog sitter had something come up. She treated Jax like her own and he was well cared for!”

“Erica did a wonderful job taking care of Lily. I received updates, questions, pictures, videos, and texts about cute & funny things she did. I could tell Erica was caring towards Lily and enjoyed being with her. I will definitely call on her again”

About: I have lived with dogs my entire life. I have walked, fed, bathed, and entertained dogs for as long as I can remember! I have worked with dogs of all ages and many different breeds, small or large! I am currently working full time, but I already walk in the morning and would love to have a furry friend to walk with. I mainly walk around lake Winona but I am willing to walk wherever you request. I offer three services through river, these include: walking, check ins, and boarding. I have recently moved into a large home with a yard great for pets. I live in outside of down on a dead end street with little traffic. I can assure you that yours pets will be treated with respect and love 🤍😃

“My guy, Theodore, was so well taken care of by Ty and his ladies, Minnie and Silhouette. Ty is wonderful and kind. Observant, and attentive. Theodore will be visiting Ty again when I have business trips. Thank you Ty for your wonderful care!”

“Kacey provided an exceptional experience for our pets. Our dog Bob loved being there. We may need to book a stay on a more regular timetable just as an enrichment exercise for him.”

“It was our first time using Rover and she did an amazing job with making us feel comfortable. We dropped off our dogs with no worries. She sent us pictures of our happy girls while we were away. Couldn’t have asked for anything better. 100/10 would recommend.”

“Kelsey sent lots of photo updates during banjo’s stay there, and he loved playing with the kids and her other two doggos! Kelsey was quick to get back to me on very short notice, and on a holiday weekend even! My doggo felt so comfortable with them upon arrival that he barely noticed me pulling down the driveway to leave, and as others have said, while I am quite sure he was happy to see me, I wasn’t convinced he was ready to come home with me. Haha. I would recommend Kelsey and her family to anyone on this site who wants to rest easy while away knowing their doggos are in good hands.s”

“Haley was so great with our high energy puppy. She sent lots of pictures for my personal ease of mind! I picked up a very tired and happy lab; I wasn't even sure he was going to come back home with me!! I plan to use Haley in the future for any need! Highly recommend!!”

“Rob and Sarah were so warm and they made me feel very comfortable leaving my dog with them. They also sent pictures and let me know how she was doing while I was gone. I wouldn’t hesitate to ask them to care for her again!!”

“Megan was amazing with our dog, Brewer. She is very sweet and compassionate and Brewer took to her right away. All her fur babies are extremely friendly and were welcoming to Brewer. We truly appreciated all of her updates. We couldn’t have asked for anyone better!”

“Jenny was phenomenal. She’s very flexible on times of pick up and drop off. She sent multiple pictures of Wiley having fun running around and playing. He was more energetic on pick up and even seemed as if he wished to stay longer. Both of her dogs were playful and accepted Wiley into their home with out any issues. Both Wiley and I are extremely pleased with this experience, and can’t wait until the next time Jenny can watch him again when I need to be out of town.”

“I had the opportunity to have Katie take care of my dog Sarah. My dog is a highly active and anxious dog, I was nervous about having someone watch her. However, after meeting Katie I knew Sarah was in good hands. My dog Sarah liked Katie right away, she is typically scared of new people so I was quite nervous. Katie was very kind to both Sarah and myself, while being gone she kept me updated by texting and sending me pictures on how Sarah was doing. Sarah was all tired out after getting home, Katie was able to take her on plenty of walks and get all her energy out. I highly recommend Katie to take care of any ones dog!”

“Sheryl and family were the most amazing hosts for my dogs! It was like they WERE family. They were gentle, prepared and loving to my two rescues on their first sleepover. They were there for a week while I was traveling for work and I was so relieved to know they were in great hands. Will definitely keep this connection. ❤️”

“Alexandra was great. She communicated well and was flexible when I needed to extend a day and my dog seemed to be having a great time playing with the others. I'll have no hesitation using her again in the future.”

“Trixie truly enjoying her stay with Piper. She’s a little stand offish at first but she warmed up to Piper no problem. It’s nice to know she will be well taken care of with Piper.”

“Cassandra is awesome! She’s kind, responds quickly, sends pics, and genuinely seems to enjoy my dog! My dog feels right at home at her place with her dogs. We will use her as often as we can!”

“Ellen did a great job taking care of my girl, Ali. She was sensitive to our dog's needs and took the time to reassure us that Ali was acclamating to her surroundings by sending us pictures. I would take Al there again without any hesitation. Thanks Ellen!!”
