🐾 Bringing Your Dog to Oostema Farmstead

We love welcoming dogs! There’s nothing better than seeing happy pups enjoying the fresh air, open fields, and peaceful rhythm of the farm. With just a few simple guidelines, your dog can enjoy the farm right alongside you.

Bringing Your Dog

• One dog per stay, please, this keeps things calm and enjoyable for everyone. (Two may be welcomed; just ask first)
• Leashes are required anytime your dog is outdoors. Please use a non-retractable leash no longer than six feet.
• Dogs stay with you at all times, please don’t leave them unattended in your RV, cabin, or vehicle.
• Please pick up after your dog to keep the farm clean and pleasant for all our guests.
• Dogs are welcome to walk around the property, along the driveway, and through the raspberry fields, but not inside the barns or cattle pastures.
  

Around the Animals

• Our cows are calm and curious, especially with calves nearby. To keep everyone safe and relaxed:
• Keep a respectful distance from the cattle and other animals.
• If your dog becomes excited or barks around livestock, simply move to a quieter area.
• Help us preserve the peaceful nature of the farm by keeping barking to a minimum.

Being a Responsible Owner

• All dogs should be up to date on vaccinations and wear identification tags or a microchip.
• In the rare case that a pet causes stress for other guests or our animals, we’ll work with you to find the best solution.

🌾 Thank You

We know how much our guests love their dogs, it’s part of what makes Oostema Farmstead feel like home. Thank you for helping us keep it that way by respecting the farm, the animals, and the peaceful environment that everyone comes here to enjoy.

We can’t wait to welcome you and your dog to the farm. When booking, just mention you’ll be bringing a pet so we can prepare for your arrival and make sure everything’s ready for a smooth, happy stay.
