My wife, Gail, and I are lifelong dog owners and lovers. Our 16 year old pug, Lily, passed on this winter, and we are looking forward to adding the dog vibe back into our household. We live in our two family home just outside Magoun Square in Somerville. We live in the top two floors of our home, so their is plenty of space for your dog to feel at home. We have a good sized out-door deck off of our kitchen, with stairs leading down to a medium sized fenced-in yard with grass. Our neighborhood is quiet, it is great for short and long walks, and there are larger green spaces are nearby. I am a self-employed carpenter with a flexible work schedule, and I am often home during the day to keep your pup(s) company (or vice-a-versa!). With enough notice, I can arrange my schedule to meet the needs of your dogs stay. My wife Gail is a teacher and is available evenings and on weekends. We look forward to meeting you and your lovely dog(s). We want our home to feel like your dogs home when they stay with us.
