Tender Loving Care for your pet. Peace of mind for you.

You have a dilemma: You love your dog and want what’s best for him or her.  At the same time, you really need a vacation or a break from the usual. What to do?

You can board your dog with HousePETality

Because leaving your dog at a kennel can be a very stressful experience for both of you

Kennels– even decent dog kennels– keep your dog isolated while they are bombarded by the sound of other overstressed dogs barking and wailing.   And many commercial dog-boarding facilities are impersonal operations.

Leaving your dog home alone–unless you arrange for multiple daily visits by a responsible pet sitter– still ends up being a lot of boring, lonely time for your very social dog.

Boarding your dog in a homey environment such as what HousePETality offers, is the most loving and humane choice you can make for your dog when you have to be away.

Small-Scale, Big-Hearted, Just-Like-Home Pet Care

Why send your beloved dog to a commercial kennel when you can give your best friend a home away from home?  

HousePETality provides boarding services to one or two dogs at a time.  Cage-free. Volume isn’t our thing.  Focused and loving companionship for your beloved dog is.

Here’s what HousePETality offers you and your dog:

VIP Deluxe Dog Boarding -

Think of it as a holiday in the country for your dog(s), a Bed & Breakfast for the beloved canine. A home away from home.  Your dog will have free run of the house and constant companionship. No cages. Ever. Open to dogs from any location. Read more

Doggie Day Care -

Just my dog and yours. If you need to be away for a long day, or have company or some other reason why your dog will be alone for a long (boring) time. Read more

About housepetality
HousePETality offers full-service pet sitting and dog boarding located in Sherborn, Massachusetts (contiguous to Natick, Framingham, Dover, Medfield, Ashland, Millis and Holliston). Pet visits are available within a 4 mile radius of Sherborn to parts of the towns mentioned above, and VIP Dog Boarding and Doggie Day Care is available to anyone from anywhere.

HousePETality is a personalized service focused on quality care for your animals rather than high volume care, i.e. we only take one guest dog at a time or two dogs from a multiple-dog household. Occasionally, at peak travel times, we might take in two known (by us) and unrelated dogs-- with the knowledge and express permission of their owners to do so.
