Question 1

What pet care options do you offer?

Accepted Answer

We offer farm stay pet sitting, dog boarding, dog day care and supervised dog walking. Overnight care, holiday care, short-term stays and extended stays are all arranged as part of these options.

Question 2

Where does the care take place?

Accepted Answer

All care takes place on our private five-acre farm in Quorrobolong, near Cessnock. Dogs come to stay with us on the farm rather than us travelling to you.

Question 3

Do you take nervous or older dogs?

Accepted Answer

Every dog is different. Nervous or older dogs may suit our calmer, home-style setting, but suitability is always assessed individually with you before a booking is confirmed.

Question 4

Can you accommodate more than one dog from the same family?

Accepted Answer

Yes, dogs from the same household are often happier staying together. Let us know about your dogs when you enquire so we can plan around them.

Question 5

Will I receive updates while I am away?

Accepted Answer

Regular photographs and updates may be provided so you can see how your dog is settling in and enjoying their time.

Question 6

How do I check availability?

Accepted Answer

Complete the enquiry form with your preferred dates and some information about your dog. Toni will review the details and contact you to discuss suitability and availability.

Question 7

How much notice do you need for a booking?

Accepted Answer

Where possible, please enquire early, especially around school holidays and long weekends. Shorter-notice enquiries are also welcome and considered based on availability.

Question 8

What information should I include in my enquiry?

Accepted Answer

Please include your preferred dates, the type of care required and information about your dog's breed, age, size, routine, temperament and comfort around other dogs.

Question 9

How quickly will you respond?

Accepted Answer

We respond to enquiries during our regular hours of 9:00 am to 6:00 pm, seven days a week. Response times may vary while we are caring for dogs at the farm.

Question 10

How is pricing worked out?

Accepted Answer

Pricing depends on the type of care, the length of the stay and your dog's individual needs, so a quote is confirmed with you when we discuss your enquiry.

Question 11

Do you display the farm address online?

Accepted Answer

No. The farm is a private property in Quorrobolong, so its precise address is not displayed publicly. Arrival and handover details are provided directly once a booking enquiry has been discussed.

Question 12

Do I need to book before visiting?

Accepted Answer

Yes. All enquiries, visits, drop-offs and handovers must be arranged in advance so we can manage availability and the dogs already in our care.

Question 13

What areas do you cover?

Accepted Answer

We are based in Quorrobolong, near Cessnock and the Watagan Mountains in the Hunter Valley, and we welcome enquiries from across the Hunter and further afield.
