Home Away From Home Dog Psychology & Behavior

"Tim and Julie are amazing people. They are so good with my dog. I would recommend them to anyone who needs a safe and caring place for their dog during the day or overnight."

"I had been wanting to check this place out for boarding our dog for vacations this summer and was getting an oil change nearby. So I walked by this place with my son while our car was being worked on. We walked into the parking lot, looking at the cool bus that's in the lot, (because my toddler has a thing for buses) and the owner popped out of the building to telling us to go away because we would "cause dog fights". I was immediately defensive and said "really, we're just walking by." He then ran off the steps to get in my face and asked me if it would be weird if he stood outside a school... I was sarcastic back. Then he criticized my work uniform and started an anti government rant on how he pays my salary and I waste his money, (because of my uniform). So now I have a heated old bald man babbling in my face about the govt while there is a now crying two yr old in my arms all because we walked by his parking lot to see a school bus.... Regardless to say I am no longer interested in his dog sitting abilities, because: A) I assume he is as bad with dogs as he is with people. B) he is apparently unable to keep dogs from fighting in a dog boarding facility. C) he openly ridicules the govt and mocks children for being interested in buses and dogs."

"Home Away From Home is a wonderful, professional facility. Julie, Tim, Heather, and the rest of the crew have designed the daycare and boarding so that it is in the dog's best interest. After trying a few facilities in Anchorage, we decided that driving the extra distance to HAFM was worth it for our comfort levels. We will definitely be coming back and hope to be long-time customers!"

"The entire staff here is great with your pet. We boarded our dog and they were so knowledgeable and kind. I am very particular when it comes to boarding my dog and we love this place, they don't just put your dog in a kennel, they let them run around and play with each other. We will definitely be using them again!"

"Best pet boarding I've found in the area. Their prices are relatively high, but it reflects on the care of your pets. They legitimately care about the animals they care for. My dog gets excited every time we pull up."
