We do our best to make every dog feel at home, and whilst I can’t take responsibility for any dramatic ‘poody’ episodes between visits 🙈 Rusty and I are looking forward to seeing this little miss again soon 🩷🐾🩷

Forget Fancy Dinner Dates - This Would Be My Kind of Valentine’s! ❤️🐾

Cosy pyjamas, a snuggly blanket, and the best company I could ask for. Who needs a fancy restaurant when you’ve got FOUR four-legged dates who are always happy to cuddle?! (Just don’t tell 😂)

What does your perfect Valentine’s with your dog look like? ❤️🐕

Starting a business is a journey, and I’ve been lucky to have some amazing support along the way. I want to give a huge shoutout to two fantastic ladies who have been there for me - Caroline from Bestpetfriends and Helen Dru Morgan. Both have run their own very successful home boarding and daycare businesses, and their experience, advice, and encouragement have been invaluable.

Caroline is actually the person I trusted with my own precious Elvis when I needed home boarding and daycare some years ago! Seeing the care and dedication she put into looking after him was the spark that made me dream of offering the same service myself. Helen’s support has also been a huge help - her insights and guidance have given me the confidence to take this step, and I’m so grateful to her generosity in sharing her experience.

Starting a business isn’t easy, but having people like Caroline and Helen in my corner has made all the difference. If you’ve ever had someone who’s helped or inspired you in your journey, why not take a moment today to let them know how much you appreciate them 🥰

PET DENTAL HEALTH MONTH – FRESH KISSES ONLY! 😘🐶🐾

It’s easy to ignore bad breath, but did you know it can be a sign of dental disease? With 80% of dogs over three years old affected, keeping their teeth clean is just as important as regular exercise and a good diet.

Regular brushing and vet check-ups can help, and I would always recommend owners add dental care to their dog’s routine. After all, when dogs come to stay, I get my fair share of kisses (gratefully received) - so fresh breath is always appreciated! 😂

Do you have a fresh-breath pup or a stinky-kiss culprit?

If Rusty could send a Valentine’s card, it would definitely be to all the wonderful girls at Home on the Farm ! 💌🐶

He absolutely adores his friends and always looks forward to his time with them, whether it’s running through the fields, playing chase, or just enjoying a good sniff around together.

Who would your dog send a Valentine’s card to? 💌❤️

A Huge Thank You to You All!

Running Home on the Farm wouldn’t be the same without the incredible support from each and every one of you. Whether you’ve trusted me with your dog, recommended me to a friend, liked a post, or simply followed along, it truly means the world.

Messages like this remind me why I love what I do - helping dogs feel safe, happy, and relaxed while giving their owners peace of mind. Your support allows me to do what I love every day, and I couldn’t be more grateful!

Diolch yn fawr / Thank you 🐶✨

Let’s start February with a little love! 💌

I’m Meinir, the heart behind Home on the Farm, and I absolutely LOVE what I do! 🥰

Every day, I get to spend time with the most wonderful dogs, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away.

Whether it’s playtime on a bouncy castle, exploring the countryside, or meeting new animal friends, I always aim to give each dog a fun and enriching experience.

Seeing their tails wag and watching them relax into their surroundings makes every moment worthwhile. Looking after dogs isn’t just a job for me, it’s a passion ❤️

Dogs bring so much joy into our lives - what’s one little thing your dog does that always makes you smile? I’d love to hear about it!❣️

Ever wondered about the difference between pet sitting and dog boarding? Both are great options, but they offer very different experiences for your dog.

Pet sitting usually involves someone visiting your home to care for your dog in their familiar surroundings. It’s a good option for dogs who prefer their own space, who feel most comfortable in their own surroundings or need to stick to a specific routine.

Dog boarding, on the other hand, gives your dog a chance to enjoy a change of scenery while still being well cared for. Here at Home on the Farm, we provide a home-from-home experience for your dog. With plenty of outdoor space to explore, tailored care to suit their needs, and the company of other friendly dogs, boarding with us is like a little holiday for them!

While pet sitting keeps things familiar, boarding offers round-the-clock companionship. You know your dog and will know which one is best suited to their needs 🥰

If you’d like to learn more about boarding at Home on the Farm, we’re happy to answer any questions! 💚

Breeze in our fur, grass under our paws – there’s nothing better than spending time outside, enjoying the simple joys of nature 🐾

Whether it’s a good run, a sniff-filled wander, or a bit of quiet time in the winter sunshine, every dog deserves a chance to explore and just be a dog.

Home on the Farm is all about creating these moments – happy faces, wagging tails, and memories made with friends. We make sure every dog feels safe, included, and, most importantly, has the time of their life.
