Availability

Your dog’s safety and happiness is our #1 priority and because I work 5 minutes from home and my fiance works remotely monday, wednesday and friday, there will always be someone with your dog! In my free time I love hiking, running trails, and playing tennis, and can happily accommodate the needs of both active and laid-back dogs! Our own dog is a mix of both!

Information Emily & Robert S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet has any special medical needs that I should be aware of and if they are reactive towards other people or dogs. Because we have a small dog (less than 15lbs) we are only hoping to board friendly dogs who won’t mind a smaller dog with them!

A typical day

I love walking my dog and the dogs we care for along the harborwalk in Seaport or down to Castle Island in Southie. If your dog likes to be social there is a dog park less than 5 minutes from our building where they can meet other dogs and play!

Seaport dog-sitter and walker!!

Pet care experience

Hi, I’m Emily! My fiancé and I live in a dog-friendly apartment building in Seaport (Boston, MA), close to a fenced-in dog park and the boardwalk! I grew up with pets (a standard poodle, king charles cavalier and a tortoise) and love animals of all sizes. We have a 2 year old dog named Auggie and he is very sweet with other dogs and loves company. We are hoping to dog-sit dogs that are friendly with small dogs and will take care of your pup alongside our own as if they were ours!
