Abstract: A docking assembly for robotic vacuums is disclosed that includes a lower base configured to retain a charging station for a robotic vacuum and an upper shelf located substantially above the lower base. During operation, the robotic vacuum may dock with its charging station between the upper shelf and lower base. In some embodiments, the upper shelf may support a trash bin, thereby allowing users to empty the robotic vacuum as needed. In further embodiments, the upper shelf may support a storage container that can be used to store excess lengths of the power cord of the charging station and/or accessories for the robotic vacuum. In further embodiments, the upper shelf may support a receptacle for other cleaning implements such as a mop. In further embodiments, the upper shelf may support a mechanism to feed and water animals.
