Courtney was great! My dog has separation anxiety & is usually freaking out when I get home after being gone all day. But this time, she was calm and happy. She clearly loved Courtney!

Taylor was such an amazing sitter! She gave me detailed updates every time she checked in on the pups. Will definitely hire her again if she is available :)

Sheana came through when I was in a pinch. I needed someone to let the dogs out because I was stuck in traffic in the mountains. She responded last minute and had excellent communication. She’s the best!

It was our first time leaving Skittles with a sitter, and Daniel did a great job of assuaging our fears! He was super communicative and made sure we knew that Skittles was in good hands. Highly recommend!

Kelli was awesome boarding my two dogs. Not only did she give daily updates with videos and pictures she also worked with them on introducing them to her cat and getting used to her big dogs. Can't recommend enough!

Homer City Center

Homer City Center

The City Center neighborhood of Homer has plenty of fur-tastic places to explore with your pooch! Just two blocks from the old town, you can find Bishops Beach. This beach offers miles of shoreline to walk along, and connects to the Beluga Slough Trailhead. There are picnic areas and grills available to use as well. Dogs are welcome on this beach, but keep a close eye on your small dog because there are eagles nearby! After enjoying the ocean views and salty air, check out the Two Sisters Bakery, located just down the street from Bishop’s Beach. Regulars rave about the cupcakes here, and they have dog friendly outdoor tables!

Diamond Ridge

Diamond Ridge

In the north end of town, you’ll find the Diamond Ridge neighborhood of Homer, and plenty of opportunities for fresh air and exercise with your pup! It’s in this neighborhood that you can find the Diamond Creek Trail. This two mile dirt trail offers sweeping ocean and mountain vistas, along forested bluffs and grassy meadows. The trail descends down to a beach, where you can find sea stars, anemones and crabs. You and your dog will love getting a taste of Alaskan wildlife without having to travel too far out of town. This trail welcomes dogs as long as they stay leashed and don’t disturb the nature.

Seldovia

Seldovia

Just across the Kachemak Bay in the town of Seldovia, you can find the sprawling wilderness of the Kachemak Bay State Park. Leashed dogs are welcome on the ferry that goes to this area! Large dogs need to stay on the upper back deck with their owner, and small dogs can be held by their owners inside the vessel. The Kachemak Bay State Park is nearly 200,000 acres of rugged, untouched nature along the shoreline. The park itself doesn’t have developed facilities, but offers backcountry camping and incredible hiking through glaciers, lakes and mountains. Keep your dog close to you, because you may even catch sight of some bears!

Anchor Point

Anchor Point

Anchor Point is a town just south of Homer, and is located on the most western point of the US highway systems. Here you can find some more great camping and hiking opportunities for you and your pup to enjoy! This small town is proud home to the Anchor River State Recreation Area. Here you can find plenty of dog friendly camping and hiking, with views of three volcanoes across the Cook Inlet. This area is great to see some wildlife as well, as the Anchor River is teeming with it. Here you may be able to see moose, bald eagles, mink, beavers, and more. The recreation area welcomes leashed dogs in and throughout the park.

Seward

Seward

Just east of Homer, you can find the massive and impressive wilderness of the Kenai Fjords National Park. This national park is accessible from the town of Seward. It covers nearly 670,000 acres, where the mountains, ice and ocean meet. Traveling the Harding Icefield Trail is a great way to explore this area with your dog. The trail is 8.2 miles roundtrip, and winds through cottonwood and alder forests. This trail is quite strenuous, taking you from the valley floor to well above the treelines. The epic views of the icefield are worth it though! Dogs are welcome throughout this park, but please bring waste bags and follow the “leave no trace policy”. You must also keep your dog leashed and stay on the trail to avoid causing erosion.
