Doggy Daycare unleashed at Ana's Farm.

Our current rates are as follows: Doggy Daycare is $25/day We offer daycare Mondays-Thursdays, with a drop-off window of 7am-9am, and pick-up anytime before 6pm. The dogs get to move freely between the inside of the barn, the fenced in play yard, and they have a side room inside the barn with a pellet stove for cold days. Lots of dog beds around, tennis balls galore, and space to run! Boarding is $50/24hrs Boarding can be anytime! Just let us know what you need for days, drop-off and pick-up times, and we will do our best to make it work. Boarding is subject to availability, so get in touch today to reserve the dates you need! Boarded dogs are fed in the morning and at night, and get to have free play as much as is safely possible. During the night they're in a climate controlled space where they're able to see their pack mates - it's like a slumber party for dogs! And even the more anxious doggies feel calmer with their buddies there with them. And starting on May 12th, 2025 we will ALSO be offering: Doggy Date Nights for $30/day If you have evening plans, and a dog that still wants to play, just bring them over on your way out, and pick them up on your way home! They'll get to play and run around, and you'll all be able to go home tired and guilt-free! Doggy Date Nights are 5pm-10pm on Fridays and Saturdays. Weekend Doggy Daycare for $40/day Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, with a drop-off window of 7am-9am, and pick-ups anytime before 6pm. Just like regular Doggy Daycare, but on the remaining three days of the week! With this addition to our services, daycare dogs coming on a regular weekly schedule can add Fridays to their schedule for the discounted daycare price of $25/day. Please Note... Any drop-offs or pick-ups that don't fall inside of a stated window of time are done by appointment only. Let us know what times you need to drop-off and pick-up when you schedule your visit, and please give us as much notice as possible if something changes. We are happy to work with you, so that we are all able to plan our days!

Requirements for Boarding: 1. Please fill out the contact form below. It helps us to stay organized, having your information alongside your dog's information, and helps us move forward to getting your dog's visit set up. 2. I will reach out to get things scheduled. Sometimes my response ends up in the spam folder, so just a heads up - I normally respond very quickly, and I definitely will respond if I receive your form. I'll answer any questions or concerns, and ask any questions I might have, and we will work together to get your dog's visit onto the calendar. 3. Registration Form & Vaccination Records Once they're on the calendar for a visit, we have a registration form to keep essential contact info organized, as well as an informative waiver to be signed. We do require vaccination records, showing they are up to date on their rabies, parvo, distemper and bordetella vaccines. You're welcome to send a photo of the vaccination records if that's easier, as we don't require an official copy. 4. Doggy Packing List Paperwork done, we are all set to go! Please bring your dog's food with them, as well as a food bowl, treats, and any bedding you'd like them to have overnight. If they have special instructions for feeding, or administering any medications, please bring those as well. 5. Getting your dog settled in Interviews aren't required for dogs that are boarding, as that's often not feasible, so we introduce boarded dogs slowly on their first day, making sure they're going to enjoy the group setting. If necessary, we have space to keep dogs in a comfy space separate from the group, so that everyone's happy and safe during their stay. We know it's hard leaving them, and do our best to keep you updated on how they're settling in, especially during the first day or two. We will be sending you photos as well, so you can see them having a good time. It's what we would want, whenever we have to leave our dogs! A Note... Whenever possible, we strongly recommend bringing your dog in for a day of daycare before they stay overnight. Especially for dogs that are anxious, or not used to boarding, the first visit is always the hardest. Getting that first visit out of the way before an overnight makes everything go much more smoothly for the dog. It's like they understand - they've been picked up once, they'll be picked up again, so they enjoy their visit with that peace of mind. This is a recommendation, not a requirement, because it means coming in for an interview, and then paying for a day of daycare, when some boarders aren't local, or it just isn't feasible. If it isn't an option for you, don't worry - we will do our best to make your dog's visit as safe and fun as possible! Requirements for Daycare: 1. Please fill out the contact form below. It helps us to stay organized, having your information alongside your dog's information, and helps us move forward to getting your dog's visit set up. 2. I will reach out to get things scheduled. Sometimes my response ends up in the spam folder, so just a heads up - I normally respond very quickly, and I definitely will respond if I receive your form. I'll answer any questions or concerns, and ask any questions I might have, and we will work together to get your dog's interview onto the calendar. Interviews typically take place on Fridays or Saturdays. 3. Doggy Interview. Daycare dogs are required to do an interview, where they meet my dogs and make sure they'll all get along, before being introduced to the group. Dogs are big on territory and they love their hierarchies, so the interview is addressing both these factors. Your dog will come to the space, get to smell around and get their bearings, then I'll bring my dog Jack out to meet them. It's Jack's place, and he is the boss-dog, so the main point of the interview is to make sure any new dogs aren't coming into another dog's territory and looking to take over as boss (aka, fight). Jack loves everyone and everything, but he takes his boss duties seriously, so we give them time to get to know each other, and work out any misunderstandings, and if they're coexisting peacefully, we will bring out my other dog, Bailey. Having a third dog simulates a group setting, and makes sure everyone is going to be happy going into daycare. The more socialized your dog is, the more smoothly this all goes! Of course, for young dogs or dogs not super socialized, other dogs are the best teachers, as they speak the same language. 4. Registration Form & Vaccination Records Once they've passed their interview, we have a registration form to keep essential contact info organized, as well as an informative waiver to be signed. We do require vaccination records, showing they are up to date on their rabies, parvo, distemper and bordetella vaccines. You're welcome to send a photo of the vaccination records if that's easier, as we don't require an official copy. 4. Set to go! Paperwork done, your dog is ready to start daycare! Most dogs have a twice-a-week schedule, which is what we recommend. Dogs get their routine down, and especially the more hyper dogs are able to pace themselves better, knowing they come regularly. Whatever schedule works best for you, just let us know!

We are open to any size, shape, age, color, and breed of dog. That being said, daycare dogs need to pass an interview before joining the group, and boarded dogs will be introduced slowly to make sure they'll all get along. Should a boarded dog not get along with the group, we have space to keep them separate, so they can have a safe and comfortable stay. Intact Males: We have noticed that even if the intact male is a sweet and submissive dog, the smell puts all the other dogs on edge, and earns them a lot of not-always-fun attention. Even if you have the greatest dog, if the pack is unsettled by them, that has to take priority. We have had some great dogs come to us originally intact, and we made it work case-by-case with boarding. Now that they're all neutered, the pack is visibly relieved, and the dogs themselves are much better able to settle in and have fun. If your intact male is just the greatest dog, and you want us to give them a chance, we will. But in our experience, we can confidently say, they will have a LOT more fun in daycare if they're not intact.

Please let us know ahead of time if you will need to do an early drop-off or late pick-up so we can confirm availability. We are normally very happy to have more doggy time!

I LOVE to talk about my dogs! I have two - Jack, and Bailey! Jack's story: Jack was dumped on the highway when he was 4 months old. He showed up outside my work, and within 20 minutes I had confirmed that nobody was looking for him. He has been my little cuddly buddy ever since, going everywhere with me, and generally being the bestest of dogs. He loves everyone and everything, has ALL the games, and takes his duties as Doggy Daycare deputy very seriously! Bailey's story: Jack and I found Bailey drinking from a puddle in the street when he was 8 months old, just a few blocks from where I was living. We pulled over to check if he belonged to anyone, and were told that he was theirs, but they didn't want him. I was told that if I wanted to take him, I could. You could see all his ribs, he smelled bad, and acted like he'd been getting hit... but he was still the sweetest and most timid little doofus, and I definitely couldn't leave him there. So into my truck he went, and straight to the bath tub! Jack taught him how to play, he loves the water and to frolic in the grass, and is just generally the most playful of dogs. It's been the most satisfying thing to see them settle in here at the farm, and live their best lives. It's doggy heaven - just grass/snow, swimming, sunshine, and doggy buddies visiting every day!
