Dog walker- Rochester MN
Hi all-
I have a Bernadoodle that we’re bringing with us for a bit at the end of June/early July. We decided to stay at the Residents Inn, across from Mayo. A couple of questions:
- has anyone had experience with a dog there?
-does anyone have a dog walker/nanny that they’d recommend in case we end up having longer days than expected?
Thanks!

I myself have not stayed at that hotel. There are sidewalks around the hotel, but not much green space.

5 ReactionsI tried finding a dog sitter for my two King Charles Cavaliers to no avail. I reached out to the concierge & never heard back over two months ago and even reached out to volunteer services if someone wanted to earn $100 a day to sit with them at the hotel and take them out for breaks while I go for tests and have outpatient surgery. Someone on this site recommended Central Bark daycare; they are booked there for two days. So far my communication with Central Bark has been reassuring since I have never left them at a daycare before.
I adopted a rescue dog from an organization in Rochester called Camp Companion. They are well connected to anything dog in Rochester. Maybe contact them and see if they can help you find someone.

2 Reactions@momma2lucy Hi, my daughter works at Mayo in Rochester. She said that Central Bark is a safe place to go. She also likes Leashes and Leads.

3 Reactions@jsligar77, I'd like to add my welcome. I hope you've seen the variety of recommendations from Mayo's Concierge Services and fellow members.
I can understand that you want to make sure your trusty companion is well taken care while you are cared for at Mayo Clinic. May I ask:
- Is this your first visit to Mayo Clinic?
- Which department will you be seeing first?
- Do you have any questions about your first visit? (I can help direct you to related discussions and members with experiences to share.)
