My two months at Husky Dreams were an incredible and unique experience. I loved to be surrounded by beautiful landscapes, northen lights and dogs. The dogs have all such great and unique personalities. You also learn a lot about them, the dogsledding and the work around it. The work can be hard during the high seasons but if you're willing to learn, work hard and are flexible with the working hours it will be very rewarding. I would recommend this experience and I hope to come back soon!

My month in Husky dreams was an amazing experience, I learn a lot about dogs, sledding and snowmobiles and at the same time being surrounded by incredible landscapes, auroras boreales, lovely dogs and amazing people who make me feel like home. The work can be hard during the high season but is balanced with quiet days that allow you to rest an enjoy the places around. I fully recommend this experience which has been one of the best of my trip, I hope comeback some day :)

Spent a bit more than a month at Husky Dreams, and it was an amazing time full of unforgettable memories of Dog sledding, Aurora watching and getting stuck with snowmobiles! This experience is one of the best i've had on all my travels, from the variety of the work you do, the people and of course the dogs, it's good times all round. I was there during the busy season which meant some very busy days, but these were balanced out with chill ones here and there, just be prepared to get to work when needed and you'll have a great time. I recommend you try it, this is a one in a million experience!

It was complicated, even after a 22h flight he asked us to shovel snow and carry food, heavy work. the place was too disorganized to live, the work is full time, with breaks of 1 or two hours at most and there is no time to finish, because in addition to the tasks with the dogs and the snow there is the kitchen and the house. The instructions are very superficial and quick, you will have to learn and do it yourself, I don't recommend it, even though the snow and the dogs are cool.

Boys, we both know that you cheated the system of world backers. You had a plan to stay only two weeks as you said to my other voulonteer.
I never except stays shorter then 1 month as it takes alot of time to instructions new voulonteers. And you guys also lied about your English skills. It was impossible to communicate efficiently with both of you.

Moreover you did far from 5 hours of work a day and the task given was seldom finished.

The experience started very well, taking care of the Huskies is really cool and fun. But it's limited there. The experience with the host was terrible from the moment we said we were leaving early, he didn't want to give us time off, he wanted us to work much longer hours The house was not in good condition, both structurally for living and cleaning (we spent the first 2 days making the place habitable) The experience with snow is difficult, so expect to have heavy days of work and as the hours are divided throughout the day you won't be able to do anything else.

An incredible experience, many dreams come true, sometimes a lot of work, other calmer days, but every day there is something to do, sometimes lack of coordination and lack of faith in communication but nothing terrible, everything is for the dogs, I will miss each of them very much and Also to the work team, very good relationship with the other volunteers, greetings to the “Broken Dreams Team” much encouragement and luck

First thing You need to know is that this is not Your regular volunteering, this is something different. Huskydreams is a place where You go to learn about yourself, about hard work and about dogs. You Will not be on holidays, wich can be really good because You Will test your own limits. It can be more or less work depending on the moment of the season, but there are always things to do. A place to grow up while You bond with dogs.

I truly had an amazing experience at Husky Dreams, even to the last day I was still learning about the dogs and the job. That's a lot of work to be a volunteer there but it's rewarding thousandfold. I learned to care for dogs, drive a sled and a snowmobile, saw many auroras and had so much fun ! The hosts are very friendly and open to trust you and your judgements once you proved yourself. The place is quite isolated so it may not be for everyone but it made for a nice retreat in my case.

3 months at the Huskyfarm and it was a good experience with lots of impressions. You have to work independently and efficiently because everything else wouldn't work. Be strong in communication and don't be afraid to ask many times. Be organized and good at cleaning and fixing things. Be good and strong with dogs. This is no 8:00-2:00 job- this is a full time job and responsibility (you have breaks in between) but if there is a night tour you can't say “I worked my hours already”. If you're like me/this then you'll have many beautiful moments with the dogs and the team. Thank you 🙏🏼
