Pet care experience

Rob and I absolutely adore dogs. Humphrey, our pooch for almost 15 years, passed away over four years ago. After about 5 months, we decided to start hosting doggie guests. We've been loving it and have many return customers who feel like our own fur children. We can't imagine how life would be without the pitter patter of little paws around the house! Please note: To ensure our undivided attention, we only want to take one dog at a time (unless two doggies come as a pair), preferably small to medium sized. Unfortunately, we can not take puppies. As adorable as they are, we are not equipped to give them the undivided attention they need. Your pup should be well-behaved, house trained and have proof of up-to-date vaccinations. The Minute Man bike bath runs right behind the house and we live just a few minutes by foot from Spy Pond. The Thorndike dog park is also a short walking distance in the other direction. However, we'd take your dog there only with your permission. We look forward to caring for your furry child; We'll treat him like our own and try not to spoil him or her too much! - [ ]
