Big adventures for dogs who love to explore.

A small-group experience designed for dogs who enjoy getting out and about, exploring new places and spending time with their friends.
From sniffing new trails to enjoying exciting adventures, this is more than just a walk - it's a day out your dog will look forward to.
Does This Sound Familiar?
My dog needs more than another walk around the block.
New environments, new smells and more opportunities to explore.
My dog loves adventure, but dog parks aren't our thing.
You want social experiences without throwing your dog into an uncontrolled environment.
My dog would thrive with a few carefully chosen friends.
Social doesn't have to mean a huge group of unfamiliar dogs.
I'd love to give my dog bigger experiences while I'm at work.
An adventure without needing to rearrange your day.
If any of these sound familiar, you're in the right place.

More Than Just a Walk

Group Adventures combine exercise, enrichment, exploration and carefully matched social experiences beyond the everyday neighbourhood walk.
Small Groups
Maximum six dogs per adventure.
Carefully Matched
Dogs are selected based on compatibility, play style and confidence.
Purposeful Destinations
We choose locations for the dogs attending - not simply the nearest dog park.
Safe Transport
Dogs travel securely in individual crates in our climate-controlled van.

I'm Ready for Group Adventures:

What happens next?

Our Summer 2025/26 Group Adventure season has now wrapped up.

As much as we'd love to spend every day exploring with our adventure crew, Group Adventures work best during the warmer months when the weather is kinder and the days are longer.

We'll be back later this year with another season of adventures, exciting destinations and plenty of wagging tails.

Group Adventures are returning this summer. Join the waitlist and we'll let you know when bookings open.

2. Check Your Dog Is Adventure Ready

3. Check the Adventure Calendar

We'll make sure Group Adventures are the right fit for your dog before their first adventure.

We'll release upcoming dates and destinations in advance, so you can choose the adventures that suit your dog.

Choose your adventure in PetBoost and we'll take care of the rest.

Group Adventure FAQs

How long is a Group Adventure?

A typical Group Adventure runs from approximately 10:15am–2:30pm, including transport.

Pick-Ups: 10:15am–11:00am
Adventure Time: Minimum 2 hours
Drop-Offs: 1:45pm–2:30pm

Adventure times vary depending on the destination, but your dog will always enjoy at least two hours of adventure time before heading home.

How many dogs attend?

Group Adventures are limited to a maximum of six carefully matched dogs.

Where do you go?

Every adventure is different. Some are off leash, some on leash, and some combine both, depending on the destination and dogs attending.

Previous adventures have included Afton Street Conservation Reserve, Altona Dog Beach, Hobsons Bay Coastal Trail, The Warmies and the Maribyrnong River.

Destinations are carefully selected for the experience - not simply the nearest dog park.

How does my dog travel?

Dogs travel securely in individual crates inside our custom-built, climate-controlled van.

Does my dog need to attend day care?

No. Your dog does not need to attend day care to join a Group Adventure.

We may ask your dog to complete a day care assessment before their first adventure so we can get to know them and determine their suitability for the group.

Do I need to be home?

No. We can collect and return your dog using a securely stored key or lockbox.

Is my dog suitable for Group Adventures?

We'll make sure your dog is Adventure Ready before their first booking. Group Adventures won't suit every dog, and we'll always recommend another service if we think there's a better fit.

We've used HPWT for individual training, walking and doggy day care, and they have been excellent across the whole journey. Our anxious and reactive dachshunds have come such a long way with their support, and we highly recommend them to anyone looking for help or just a fun (and expertly guided) place to walk or look after your dog during the day.
