My wife, Jen, works from home and loves to take breaks to give the dogs hugs, pats and plenty of attention! We have a spacious grass patch in the back of our home so potty breaks happen 4-5 times a day. When the weather is nice, we love to take longer walks around the Charles River or down to Moody.

Information Robert A. would like to know about your pet
We kindly ask that you consider us only if your dog(s) are potty trained and not aggressive with small dogs or children. We only accept neutered dogs. When booking with us, please make sure your dog(s) are up to date on their vaccinations and that their vet info is included in their profile. To best accommodate your dog(s), we have found that bringing items from home help your dog(s) adjust to their new environment more smoothly. Please don't forget to bring: - Food and water bowl, along with enough food for the stay, labeled with your dogs name and any feeding instructions, all put together in a bag - Preferred bedding is optional (e.g. crate, towels, blankets, dog bed) - we have ample spaces for dogs to lounge - We do not recommend toys as we have plenty at home to share We do not do late night pick-ups/drop-offs past 9 pm per our family’s school/work schedules. Thanks so much for reading, and we look forward to meeting you!
A typical day
Walks, outings to the Charles, and a loving home where they can romp about wherever they please. They will also have Chester & Maddie, our two dogs, and our energetic daughters to play with all day!

Pet care experience
We know how stressful it is to find reliable sitters for your pets and we’d love to be the family that provides a loving home for your dog(s) during their stay. We have a full but fun house that we’d love to have your pets be a part of - we have two "Pomimos": Chester & Maddie, who will also be keen to have friends to hang on the couch with, a six year old with an eager energy to help and play, and a two year old who absolutely loves watching dogs run around our home. Needless to say, your pet will be thoroughly entertained the entire stay! Thank you for your consideration, and we look forward to taking meeting you!
Reviews
A+ sitters! Robert and Jen are a gem of a find. Highly recommended. They were incredible sitters to our little munchkin-rascal Marco in all the usual ways you’d want or expect from a “Star Sitter”: safe, caring, responsible, responsive, communicative, and thoughtful. But the biggest intangible? Their family - including their lovely daughters - gave Marco the kind of (surrogate family ie proxy) “home away from home” love and warmth and kindness that only another dog parent can truly understand and appreciate. You can’t put a number on that. Thank you Robert and Jen - we’ll be back! ❤️
This is our second time leaving our dog with Robert and his family. Once again we could not have asked for better sitters for our Snowy. So nice and responsive, send daily updates, love our dog. What more could you ask for?
Thankyou Jen and Robert for hosting Ginger twice in December. When we leave her with you, we can always count on her being safe and loved, while having a great time with your family. Thanks again.
Beckett loves staying with Robert and his wife and adorable children. They are a loving, caring family and fantastic dog sitters. Beckett is always excited to see them, loves playing with little Ava, and feels right at home with them. I highly recommend them as the best sitters we've ever used!
