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 can understand their personality.

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, & 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: 10-12am - Drop off: 6-8pm


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 with 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 best-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 expected to be in 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.
