Home pet care: comfort for your canine companion

Leaving your dog shouldn't be stressful for either of you. Our premium in-home dog minding service is designed specifically for older dogs, anxious pups, or any dog that is happiest in their own familiar surroundings.

Why choose Harbour Hounds for home pet care?

At Harbour Hounds, we believe the best care starts where your dog feels happiest—at home. Rather than simply popping in to feed or let your dog out, we take the time to provide genuine companionship, personalised care, and maintain their normal routine. Every visit is tailored to your dog’s individual needs, giving them comfort, consistency, and plenty of one-to-one attention while giving you complete peace of mind.

Personalised one-to-one care

We tailor every visit to the individual needs of your dog, ensuring they receive dedicated attention and care.

Maintain their normal routine

Dogs stay relaxed and happy because they’re in their own home, adhering to their familiar schedule.

Quality time, not just quick visits

We provide companionship, exercise, and enrichment, going beyond simply letting them out and leaving.

Let's get to know each other

Your dog’s happiness and comfort always come first, which is why we require a free, no-obligation Meet & Greet before every booking.

We’ll visit you and your dog at home, take the time to get to know their personality, routines, favourite toys, and little quirks. It’s the perfect opportunity for your dog to meet us in their own space and for you to feel completely confident that they’re in safe, caring hands while you’re away.
