The cabins are not only heated and cooled but incredibly spacious. The grounds are extremely well taken care of and provide ample running space for pups during their outings. And the people who work here are so incredibly caring. I feel thankful every day that we have found this amazing space. My moms dogs have been here since around May of 2025 and they are so loved and taken care of, it helps ease our hearts knowing how well they are being treated at Dancing Creek Farm. If you need a long or short term boarding, this is absolutely the best place to go.

We would never take a dog to any other facility except DCF!!…read more We took our dog, a 9-month-old GSD, to DCF, because he became too much for us to handle. He didn't listen to anyone, would and could drag me down the street, ran out onto a major highway from the vet's office, and had become a danger to himself and us. I looked all over the east coast to find someone that was highly rated, and someone that could take him immediately. Then, through my neighbor, Jodi Rogers, I found Dancing Creek Farm. From Intake to bringing our dog home, everything was spectacular. His trainer was Cassie, who is the best ever trainer. She trained not only our puppy, but us as well! DCF dealt with out-of-control behavior with this pup, as well as skin issues (itching), and teenage hormones too! They got his diet on track for what he needed, and explained the importance of the correct diet to us so we understood it. We now have a different pup. He is respectful, we are his leader, we can keep him safe through proper control techniques, and we can totally enjoy this wonderful, loving GSD. This facility, and all its staff, are total professionals. The overall care is phenomenal, and these folks love what they do - and it shows. We will never be able to thank Cassie and all the staff enough for how they have enriched our pup's life, as well as ours. There is peace at home at last!

TL;DR: HIRE HER. She's AMAZING…read more Our little beagle was rescued from a puppy mill that was raising him sell to a lab. The mill was shut down due to animal abuse. Since our pup had spent his entire life living in a kennel (and didn't know about grass, cars, walks, toys, peanut butter--anything!), we had our work cut out for us. And we're first-time dog owners, to boot. Tricia was recommended to us after I posted on a community Reddit page. She promised to be our one-stop shop for dog help, and she's more than lived up to her promise. Not only did she help us potty-train our one-year-old pup and teach him basic commands, but she's helped us with everything from figuring out doggy daycare, grooming, pet supplies, etc. We see her once a week at our house or at a public place and also answers tons of questions from us via text/email in between sessions. Not only is Tricia great with our pup (he ADORES her), but she's great with us, too. She's super professional and prompt, and is helping us gain confidence as new dog owners. I'd highly recommend her to anyone (and have already recommended her to several friends!).

We do not recommend Meghan / Reach for the stars dog training. Cheap? Yes. Follows their own…read morecontract? No. Reliable? No. Professional? No. Honest? No. Go anywhere else, don't waste your time or money here. Upon leaving this review, I was also contacted by Meghan who, once again, made empty promises of a refund only to later be blocked from her page on the day of agreed meeting. After reading the positive reviews, we were so excited to hire Meghan to train our new puppy. After discussing our goals, availability, and making plans to move forward, we paid and anxiously awaited her arrival the following Sunday. On Saturday evening she asked if we were comfortable with the anticipated windy Sunday or if we wanted to reschedule. We were not worried about the wind as we would be indoors for the introduction / first session. Unfortunately, Meghan never replied to the conversation to confirm or deny the appointment. We waited for her arrival but she never showed. After the appointment time had passed, we reached out to her in hopes of setting another appointment in upcoming week. She was very short with the conversation left us wondering what to expect as she stopped replying until we reached out AGAIN for confirmation. The next appointment scheduled for the next day at 1:30pm. At 12:36, Meghan texted and said she would be late. She asked again if we wanted to reschedule, we said we wanted to continue with the appointment and would work around other plans due to her late arrival. Once Meghan finally arrived, she showed potential as she worked with our puppy and educated us on training techniques, however, she also seemed very distracted in her cell phone. At the end of the appointment we talked about the process of filing papers to provide our dog with the type of training we purchased, she talked about her puppy classes and invited us to join, and she offered to email material for training. We know life can be unpredictable and decided to disregarded her previous unprofessionalism and happily scheduled our next visit. The day of our scheduled appointment came and Meghan didn't show. We reached out to ask if she was still coming and she attempted to reschedule. The availability we agreed on upon hiring Meghan was very clear due to work and our child's health conditions that required many doctor appointments. We expressed our willingness to wait if she needed to come later than scheduled as we weren't available again that week. Meghan didn't show up, again. By this point we were three weeks in and had only one completed session that Meghan suggested to reschedule and arrived late. The lack of effective communication, accountability, and effort took its toll as our puppy was growing bigger (we emphasized the importance and urgency of her training to accomplish safe behaviors around our disabled child) and we were constantly being let down. We told Meghan we wanted to cancel her "services" and refunded. She was defensive and referred to the contract that stated a refund would take up to 14 business days. We are currently on 22 |business days| and have not yet received a refund. We asked for a confirmation or ANYTHING showing that it is being processed, however Meghan continues to give reasons why it hasn't gone through or simply ignores us. I'd give negative stars if it were an option. She will also contact you upon leaving a review of your experiences and not only yell at you but threaten to take you to court.
