Step 1 - Register Your Dog
Before we plan anything, please
create your dog’s profile:
doggydogfarm.aniday.io/login
We’ll collect essentials - age, breed, health history, behavior, and any special needs, so we have all the necessary info about your dog.
Step 2 - Book a Trial Day or Introduction Visit
Before boarding or daycare, every new pup begins with a gentle meet-and-greet at our farm.
Option A: Short Introduction Visit (±1 hour):
- Visit the farm together with your dog.
- Meet our Pack Leaders, take a short tour, and give your pup time to settle.
- Free of charge
Option B: Trial Day (Daycare):
- A whole farm day filled with play, cuddles, and exploring
- Optional: pick-up & drop-off (Amsterdam, Haarlem, surroundings).
- Cost: €30,-
- optional: pick-up and drop-off + €10,-
- Pick up: 09:00-11:00 • Drop off: 18:00-20:00
Step 3 - Gentle Introduction
We schedule first arrivals 10:00AM–11:00AM (pack nap time) so your dog can:
- Explore the farm calmly
- Take a gentle welcome walk with a Pack Leader (often Keldt or Hayley)
- Dog is assessed for energy, confidence, and social cues
Step 4 - Meet the resident pack
First, a hello to our 3 resident “Farm Crew” dogs.
They’re calm, balanced, and help us read your pup’s comfort before the big pack.
Step 5 - Gradual Meet & Greet with the Pack
Based on what we observe, we introduce your dog gradually:
- Start with calm viewing from behind a fence (if helpful)
- Use a long leash for extra reassurance
- Place your dog with the best-fit group:
- Main Active Pack - playful, energetic dogs (most guests join here)
- Gentle Pack -
seniors, puppies, or shy dogs
Step 6 - First Stay: Daycare or Overnight
Once introductions are complete, your dog can safely start boarding with the main pack.
We’ll watch how they play, who they befriend, and where they feel most comfortable - tailoring their stay every time.
📌 Important Notes for New Parents
- Book early: Please reserve well in advance - especially for summer and Christmas.
- Females in heat: For safety, we can’t accept females in heat or dogs expected to come into heat during their stay.
- Vaccinations required: All vaccines (including kennel cough) must be up to date and uploaded before the first stay.
- Peak periods & new dogs:
New dogs
can’t join
during peak holidays
unless they’ve completed a trial day and several overnight stays beforehand.
