Pet care that fits real life
Your schedule changed.Your dog’s needs didn’t.
Maybe the commute got longer. You’re back in the office more. The kids’ schedules took over the afternoon. Your usual help fell through. Or you finally booked the trip and want to know your dog is somewhere they can settle in comfortably.
You do not need another thing to coordinate. You need to know they are taken care of.
That’s where we come in.

Boarding that feels more like home
Because it is a home.
Comfortable home based care where dogs can settle in and be part of the household.
Some dogs simply do better in a home environment than in a traditional kennel. Our boarding dogs stay with us in our Hudson home, with household routines, supervised outdoor time, and a smaller scale setting.

Private means private
Your dog isn’t joining a pack.
A walk should feel like your dog’s walk, not one stop on a group route.
Wholesome Hounds walks dogs privately by household. That means the visit is built around your dog’s routine, pace, and needs rather than fitting them into a group route.
- No pack walks
- 20 and 30 minute options
- Insured and bonded local company

Quick answers
Before you ask...
The most common things people want to know before they reach out.
How do I get started?
Start by requesting a free Meet & Greet. We’ll learn about your pets, your routine, the services you need, and make sure Wholesome Hounds is a good fit before care begins.
What towns do you serve?
We provide dog walking and drop in visits in Hudson, Sudbury, Berlin, Stow, Maynard, and Bolton, depending on route and schedule availability. Boarding and daycare take place at our Hudson home and are open to families outside those towns as well.
Are your dog walks private?
Yes. Our walks are private by household, not pack walks. Your dog gets individual attention and a walk built around their own pace and needs.
What vaccinations are required?
Dogs must have current Rabies, DHPP, and Bordetella vaccinations, with veterinary documentation provided before service. Documented veterinarian advised medical exemptions may be considered case by case.
What is home boarding like?
Boarding dogs stay with us in our Hudson home and are part of the household for their visit, following our everyday routine. Dogs sleep where they are comfortable, and a dog’s own crate is used when crate sleeping is already part of their normal routine. It is a real home environment rather than a traditional kennel.
One less thing to worry about.
Reliable local pet care for the days life gets busy.
