DO NOT TRUST THIS BUSINESS WITH YOUR PET.
We recently boarded our small dog here while on vacation. Shockingly, the owner took our dog off-leash outside the fenced area—despite being in a wilderness setting known for wild animals and freezing temperatures. Our dog got loose and was missing for four days in sub-30 degree weather.
We were so distraught that we ended our vacation early, flying back from St. Croix at significant personal expense, just to help search for him.
This level of negligence is beyond unacceptable. A boarding facility’s most basic responsibility is to keep pets safe. Instead, we experienced fear, heartbreak, and thousands of dollars lost due to one person’s incompetence.
Please think twice before trusting them with your animal.

We use Amy several times a year. The dogs never look back when we drop them off. They have a big yard to run in and spend as much time as they need inside. Her home is immaculate and her love for dogs is amazing! She is the best.

We got a dog two years ago. It was either we take him or he went back to the animal shelter. We took him and he's a great dog but we couldn't leave him with anyone because he would bark and pace until we came and got him. So my wife and I basically couldn't go anywhere. We found Home Away From Home while searching for dog sitters. Last week we took our dog out for a meet and great and all went well. Yesterday we dropped him off for over night to see if he would stay without being near us. Amy did a great job. He stayed overnight and she said she had no problems with him. It's so nice to know that we now can leave Vader with her during the day or for overnight stays. We highly recommend her for your dog sitting needs.

You can trust to leave your dog here. Great service from a great business owner. Amy has a passion for dogs like you would for your own. Very friendly and safe environment.

I love boarding my dog Birdie at Home Away from Home because it’s truly a home! The only time she see’s a kennel is meal time to keep the puppy peace. The rest of the time is spent snoozing on their pet friendly furniture or playing together in the huge (and constantly picked up) yards.

The woman who is running this place is one of the most kind and caring person and I would not give a second thought to leaving my best friend with her.
