Why Small Group Dog Walks Are the Best Choice for Your Dog

Not all dog walking services in Melbourne are created equal. At Hound Hero, our group walks are designed with your dog’s safety, stimulation, and happiness in mind.

Here’s how our dog walking service stands out.

What Makes Hound Hero Group Walks Different?

Max 5 Dogs per Group

We keep our groups small for maximum supervision, personal attention, and compatibility between dogs.

Off-Lead Play in Dog-Friendly Parks

Our dogs explore local favourites like Altona Dog Beach and Apex Park, with off-lead play (only for dogs with solid recall and owner permission).

Active Engagement (Not Just a Leash Lap)

We don’t just walk. We play fetch, reinforce basic training cues, and ensure real enrichment and mental stimulation.

Quality “Paws on the Ground” Time

Sniffing, chasing, rolling in the grass—this is the kind of movement your dog actually needs.

Experienced, Caring Handlers

We match dogs based on temperament, size, and energy levels. You can trust that your dog will be safe, known, and loved on every walk.

Perfect for Social, Active Dogs

Group walks are ideal for:

• Dogs who need structured socialisation

• Active breeds who thrive on movement

• Dogs who are fine on their own but need a walk during the day while their owner is at work.
