    From the owner: It's hard being away from home, even for your pet. We are a personalized daycare and boarding…read morefacility that recognizes that all pets are a little different and all have different needs to help them cope with being away from their people. We do our very best to accommodate those needs to ensure all of our guests have the best possible time during their stay with us. Indoor/outdoor dog runs, plenty of space for dogs to run and play, and a loving staff that will treat your pet like their own are just a few of the ways we strive to help your furry friend acclimate. We also offer a variety of sizes of cat condos for our kitty friends. Not only do we strive for the best stay for your pet but we also strive to make the owner experience as effortless as possible.

We also offer a variety of extra services such a baths, brushings, daily pictures and more to ensure that your time away from your pet in worry-free.

    Oh how I miss the former owners. Drop off was pleasant, but the odors coming from the inside of the…read morebuilding at that time were not so much (first clue). I decided to give the new owners a shot as it had been a while that we needed boarding (two nights). The experience was night and day - Rene and her staff went above and beyond to make our fur baby comfortable and our minds at ease. On the day of pickup, our pet was excited as usual, but there was something different this time. Her anxiety was pretty high. Our pet's belongings (blankets and bed) are in the wash (hot temp) as I type this because they smelled horrible. Our pet didn't smell that great either. She has been itching excessively as though she was exposed to fleas. I gave her an extra dose of her preventative flea med just in case. Needless to say, I won't be taking our fur-baby back.

    We had a similar experience as Roman W. We have boarded our two dogs here for several years when…read moreRenee was the owner and our experience then was excellent. She was always great about keeping us updated on how the pups were doing, sending pictures and contacting us if any issues came up or if they had any kind of questions. Our recent experience (end of July 2025) with the new owner was not good. Our dogs came home with kennel cough and very unhappy. We were never informed of any issues while we were gone, no updates, no communication at all. We found out when we went to pick them up. We will not board there again.

    I found this wonderful place for my dogs when we are taking longer trips! I love the fact that…read morethey're further out from the city and have property for the dogs to be able to wonder like they used to when we lived in the suburbs. My dogs are accustomed to being around, just our family and don't always be friend new people readily. They immediately took to the owner, Brian. Our dogs are on a diet where they have a mixture of dry and wet food that require refrigeration or freezing. That was no problem at all for the owner to accommodate. The fellas looked well cared for when my son picked them up! My son forgot to check for the dogs blankets when he picked them up and Brian kindly drove them down to the city where we live so that the dogs would have them. I will definitely use Hicks Farm again and I highly recommend them!

    Zelda, our German shepherd/husky mix, boarded with Brian for nearly two weeks while we were on…read morevacation. Before she went, I'd worked with her on sit, down, take it, leave it, and some spins with decent success. Brian took what she had and built on it, adding heel, come when called, turn, and stay. He returned a noticeably different dog. When we hit some bumps shortly after, he came back out and spent a solid hour with me going over what was actually happening...not just commands and corrections, but why she was behaving the way she was and what she needed from me to feel secure. (Spoiler: she needed me to be more confident and consistent.) He has a way of cutting straight to what matters without overcomplicating it, and more than once he said exactly the right thing at exactly the right moment. What struck me most across both experiences was how much genuine wisdom he brings to his work. He's clearly someone who has learned his craft through deep experience and observation, and it shows in every interaction with the dog and with the owner. On top of all of that, his pricing was incredibly reasonable; boarding and training combined for what many trainers charge for training alone. We felt genuinely taken care of. Kind, patient, perceptive, and exactly what we needed. Highly recommend.
