I would not NEVER leave my dog here again Unsupervised and Negligent resulting in injuries from other dogs' bites.

Best doggie care in the world!!! My dog doesn't have separation anxiety any more since I found this place. The owner texts me pics of my baby having a great time while I am on vacation, which I really appreciate. Now when I take him there, he can't wait to jump into Kristy's arms and start HIS vacation! The new pond is a testament to the owner's absolute dedication to the dogs! The price is absolutely reasonable and I like that my dog isn't caged.

Terrible I had a bad experience here. Drop off my white shih-tzu and could not believe the amount of dogs she was keeping. the owner could not believe how white and clean my dog was. Also the filth of the house. Dogs were on the kitchen table, piles of clothes everywhere. Needless to say I left him overnight because I did not have a choice. I had a neighbor pick him up the next morning and find another place for my baby while I was away. I would not recommend this place at all!!

My 3 pups LOVE this place! My dogs absolutely LOVE their little vacations here while I am away. They literally have full run of the house and a large, well maintained fenced in yard. I have rec'd text or email updates any time there has been anything going on with the dogs that I should know about while I am away. I have used several times and would recommend to ANYONE! Your dogs will truly enjoy their time while you are So much better than any alternatives. =)

In my defense...... In my defense........ Regarding the negative rapport we received below...... To be fair......the 1 year old ~not neutered~ pup was a good dog, never did I indicate that he was a 'bad dog' that I could not handle, the indication was that being not fixed, he was humping everything in this house from other dogs (that eventually had to hide from him) to even humping the couch. The other fact was that ~not being neutered~, he was marking his territory EVERYWHERE........I could not go on like this for a week...... read more

Terrible-go elsewhere I had a really bad experience here. So, to be fair, here are the potential "negatives" about my pup up front: He's a 1 year old lab-still a puppy, 80lbs, and not yet neutered (at the breeders suggestion). He's otherwise a very good dog and not the least bit aggressive.Well, She couldn't handle him for 5 hours let alone the 7 days I planned to leave him. We got called WHILE WE WERE DRIVING TO OHIO ON VACATION to make other arrangements.I had a bad feeling when I dropped off because the owner came to meet... read more

Our dog Rani loves this place! Our lab 'Rani' loved her stay so much, she has been back multiple times. She is always clean, happy and tired from playing with the other dogs when we pick her up. I never worry about her when she is at 'Home Away from Home.' We would highly recommend this for any dog that does not like cages or is a pampered pet. Joanie and Kristy Ford are obvious dog lovers and look forward to seeing Rani each visit.

home away from home in naperville It is the best place to take your dog. Uno just loved it and he looked so happy!! It is run by people who genuinely care about dogs.

Great place to send your dog! I took my lab there while I went on vacation, "Pongo" loved it there, loved to play in the pond and the big yard. I would reccomend this to anyone who does not want their dog to just sit in a cage the whole time-while your on vacation, so is your dog.
