This position is located at a separate kennel near Boden and not at the main Husky Dreams location in Kiruna.
I currently have around 16 competition dogs and am developing a new kennel and training property. My main focus is training and racing Alaskan Huskies, although I also offer occasional private dog sledding experiences.
You will be the only volunteer on the property, making this opportunity ideal for someone who enjoys a quieter lifestyle and feels comfortable spending time independently. You will gain insight into all aspects of kennel life, from dog care and training to property maintenance and small development projects.
Daily activities vary depending on the season, weather, and training schedule, but may include:
• Feeding and caring for the dogs
• Cleaning kennels and maintaining dog areas
• Assisting with dog training and exercise
• Preparing dogs and equipment for training runs
• Helping with occasional private tours
• Property maintenance and general outdoor work
• Small construction and renovation projects
The workload is typically around 4–5 hours per day, 5 days per week, with flexibility depending on weather conditions, training schedules, and special projects.
As a volunteer, you will be part of a small and authentic Alaskan Husky racing kennel near Boden in Swedish Lapland. In exchange for your help, I provide accommodation, meals, and the opportunity to gain hands-on experience with sled dogs, kennel management, and life in the Arctic.
This is a volunteer exchange and not a paid position. I am looking for someone who is reliable, motivated, and genuinely interested in dogs and outdoor life.
