Dogs On the Farm & Cats Too

These guys love my dogs and my dogs would rather live here then at my house I am pretty sure! They take such good care of them! I cant imagine having them stay anywhere else.

My experience with Dogs on The Farm has turned us off from using anyone but family or friends for dog care while we are on vacation.
Our dog was there for just over a week. We’d check the dog cam by day but there’s no way to see what the conditions are at night unless you book your dog in one of the suites.
When we came to pick him up he seemed dazed. No happy tail or feet to greet us. We thought he was just tired from all of the playtime.
By the next day, we were at the first of a series of expensive vet visits. Beyond deep slices in his paws, hind legs and butt, he had a fever, kennel cougand serious contamination from mouse droppings. It took several weeks for him to recover.
I do not recommend this place and have the vet bills to prove why.

Ever since learning that a dog died in these people’s care, I wanted to share my dog’s terrible experience there. Before people even reviewed services in general, I left my beautiful black lab there while I was on vacation with my family a few years ago. I got him the works — ball in which we recorded our voices for him, live video cam so I could observe him while we were away, cool little bed in private room. As it turned out, observing him was a nightmare — could not often see him. I cannot confirm what actually occurred there without my observation; but when we picked him up, he could barely get in the car, he seemed sick and exhausted. He was never the same after staying there — always fearful and physically in pain. Please do not leave your animals there.

Jason assured us Tasha was eating all her food and this is the first time hearing she was not eating and canned food was introduced to Tasha. If this was true my family would have picked her up immediately. Tasha lost over 5 pounds and after 8 days we finally have her back in good health and the virus she caught from the Kennel has passed. We are aware of the risks and possible anxiety a pet can go through. In this case we were not informed. I had high hopes this was a good place for her to be left when we travel but if anyone ever asks me for a referral I cannot provide one.

3 yr. old male lab stayed for a week — came home happy, healthy & clean. Staff was attentive and professional when we called to check in; we were able to see him on video and in pictures each day. He will be back — thank you!

In response to the owners, Karen, comments almost TWO years after and I consider it remarkable that after two years she remembers more about my dogs stay than two weeks after I picked up when she knew nothing. I complained because my dog needed to be taken to the vet for wound care, the services that I paid for cameras/​webcam/​photos were NOT provided to us and when I was offered security footage to show that my dog was not locked in an unattended office, where we found him when we picked him up, they «lost» their footage and I have texts and emails still to this day to prove it. In addition to your comment about my dogs behavior, when I removed him from your supervision, he has since been at the Barker Lounge and All American Pet Resorts where he plays just fine with all the dogs there, it might be better supervision, different atmosphere… who knows! Thanks for the link to the article, however, when I Google the facility, enough articles come up for my review. Lots of luck to this facility and I do hope they turn it around for the good.

Dogs on the Farm is a wonderful retreat for dogs!!! They are also conveniently located near the ferry and train stations. I take my dog, who is a German Shepard/​Labrador mix, to stay when I travel to the city. She’s attended Doggie Dogcare on several ocassions and seemed to have a wonderful time! I loved wtaching her play on the live webcam. She came home each day happy and content. The staff was attentive and helpful at drop offs and pick ups. They also take pictures and have fun events! I have also boarded my dog, and she enjoyed an very nice room with a small bed. I highly recommend Dogs on the Farm for daycare and boarding!

There should be a negative star. They put a harness on my dog while she was there, which is fine, she wears a harness for hours at a time. When I picked her up she had sores under her legs from the harness being put on to tight and was cutting into her leg and chest, leaving scabs and bald spots. I wasn’t even mad. However, when I inquired about these wounds to the owner she had no answers and made up a bunch of excuses. We ended the conversation when she said, «I can understand if you don’t want to come back here.» I haven’t been back. (this was about a month before poor Bugsy)

I am a new client and so far my experience has been very good. My dog loves going there and always comes home exhausted so I know he’s getting plenty of exercise and playtime. During the recent heat wave I kept him home in the a/​c. Despite the tragic death of the little bulldog I still feel that my dog is safe here.

This place is NOT good. The Facility is run down and the owner does not take responsibility for the actions of her employees. My dog was attacked by other dogs there and then locked in a room by himself for the rest of the day. They denied that he was attacked even though all of his legs were chewed, his face was cut and his pad was sliced open.
I will not be taking my dog there ever again!

My dog DIED today at Dogs on the Farm. We left him there overnight and on the hottest day of the year with 100+ degree heat they had all the dogs outside for 1.5 hours and he became overheated and tragically passed away. He was a perfectly healthy 6 year old French Bulldog who didnt deserve this negligence. DO NOT BRING YOUR DOG HERE THIS PLACE IS INCOMPETENT! They know they screwed up as they offered to pay for the autopsy and cremation. Thanks for th $ 150, you are completely worthless. We will miss you bugsy.
