🌟 Client Success Story! 🌟

Meet Faith, one of Homeward Bound's original clients, and her sweet pooch, Poppy! 🐶 As a full-time professional, Faith struggled with the guilt of leaving Poppy at home. But with Homeward Bound's daily dog walking service, she found the perfect solution!

"As one of Homeward Bound’s original clients, I cannot stress enough how I rely on, and trust them with not only my beautiful dog, but my home and property. Everyone on Alix’s team is professional, courteous, and truly love animals! If you work and have that guilt about leaving your furry friend, Homeward Bound is your best investment in the love and care of your pet!" - Faith

Our dedicated team ensures your dogs get the exercise, attention, and love they need every day. From scenic walks to fun playtime, we make sure your pets are happy and healthy while you’re at work. 🏞️❤️

👅 Happy from Jasper! 🐶 Jasper and Molli enjoyed a beautifully shaded adventure hike. We couldn't help but notice how Jasper's tongue looks like it's in 3D! 😄

As you may have seen, we were all heartbroken last week to learn of the passing of one of our beloved client's dogs, Riggs. Our talented team member, Holly of Todawoods Fine Art by Holly Heath, spent her weekend processing her grief by creating this beautiful print of Riggs. This artwork is a testament to what a special dog he was and the deep bond he shared with everyone who knew him. 🌈❤️

🌈 Remembering Riggs 🌈

With a smile that never faded, even until the very end, Riggs was a joy to walk alongside every day for the past four years. Today, we received the heartbreaking news that Riggs has passed away. Our entire Homeward Bound team is deeply saddened by his loss. Riggs will be dearly missed by us, his loving family, and his brother Cody. Our hearts go out to them as they adjust to this new normal. We’re committed to bringing joy to Cody’s days as he navigates this difficult time. 💔🐾

🐾 Meet Polly! 🐾

Polly has been a cherished client of our pet taxi services for years. 🥰 Every day, we bring her to and from doggy daycare, ensuring she gets the best care 5 days a week. Now, Polly is taking a short break from her daycare routine to dive into an exciting new adventure with Homeward Bound! While she’s on a special elimination diet, we’re keeping her busy, happy, and healthy with a tailor-made schedule utilizing both our adventure hikes and our group walks.🏞️🌲🐕

Here's how we take care of Polly:

1. Personalized Care: Polly’s special diet is our priority, and we make sure her needs are met while she enjoys her day.
2. Thrilling Adventures: Our hikes are filled with fun and exercise, keeping Polly engaged and energized.
3. Social Time: Group walks allow Polly to bond with other pups, fostering great social skills.

✨ Don’t let your furry friend miss out on the adventure of a lifetime! Spots are filling up fast, so book now and let us take your pet on a journey they'll love! 🐶💚

It was this day, 13 years ago, that the spark of Homeward Bound was ignited with a simple Facebook post!

What started as a one-woman show with me doing everything (and I mean everything—from 7 am to 11 pm, seven days a week, often sleeping over at pet houses more often than I was sleeping in my own bed) has grown into a thriving business focused on busy pet parents and their dogs.

Today, I have a fantastic team of five dedicated dog walkers who shower all our furry clients with love and attention. We’ve also recently introduced our exciting adventure services and, to celebrate our teenage years, Homeward Bound is sporting a fresh, updated logo!

Here’s to the past 13 years and to many more ahead! 🐾✨

If you swipe far enough you’ll catch a glimpse of her walker, Holly, who’s already becoming fast friends with Willa ! Welcome to the pack, Willa! We’re thrilled to have you! 💖

Can you believe it? When Jasper first came home, he and the boys were each just tiny 21-pound bundles of joy, and now on his 1st birthday, he's transformed into a stunning 125-pound gentle giant, with the boys keeping pace at a sprightly 28 pounds each! 🐾✨ Admittedly, welcoming an 8-week-old puppy into our lives alongside two-year-old twins had me questioning my sanity at times. But oh, what a year it's been—overflowing with puppy cuddles, laughter, and love ❤️. Here's to you, Jasper, and the endless joy you bring. Happy 1st Birthday! 🎉🎂
