# Home Alone Hounds
Home Alone Hounds was a dog walking and pet care service based in Upminster that catered to busy pet owners who needed reliable support whilst at work or away from home. The business has now ceased trading.
The service specialised in professional dog walking, offering one-hour walks where dogs were collected from their homes and returned after exercise. The operator maintained a small group size, walking no more than three dogs simultaneously to ensure quality attention and safety for each animal. For older or smaller dogs requiring less strenuous activity, 40-minute walk options were available. Beyond walking, Home Alone Hounds also provided feeding visits for both cats and dogs, offering 15-minute sessions that combined feeding with playtime interaction.
What distinguished this service was its personalised approach to pet care. Rather than relying on kennels or group daycare facilities, the business brought exercise and feeding services directly to pets in their own homes, minimising stress and disruption to their routine. The operator's commitment to small group walks reflected a philosophy prioritising individual attention over volume, ensuring each dog received proper care and socialisation rather than being part of a large pack.
The business demonstrated genuine care for its clientele through carefully tailored service options, recognising that different dogs had different needs. This bespoke approach, combined with the convenience of home-based collection and drop-off, made it an appealing choice for Upminster residents seeking trustworthy pet care.
