About Us

A brown and white dog with floppy ears and a collar, excitedly barking or yawning on a wooden floor.

We offer a family-run home daycare and boarding for dogs in the Blackhorse Road area, E17. We welcome dogs of all abilities, including those who might need some extra care. We started Hounds of the Trees because we found it difficult to find trusted and licensed boarding for our 15-year-old family dog Pontufa, who has IVDD, hearing and vision loss. We have 20 years of dog rescue experience and a background in animal nutrition.

We are fully insured, DBS-checked and licensed by Waltham Forest Council (LBWF/566891/26).

Three dogs meet on a grassy lawn with lush green plants in the background. One dog is tan with a red collar, another is tan and black with a white tag, and the third is a small gray and tan dog with long, wavy fur.
