Farm-View Kennels

Farm-View Kennels is a dog boarding and daycare facility at 926 Eppley Road in Mechanicsburg, PA, set on a 26-acre countryside property. It accepts dogs of every size, from small breeds up to giants, and keeps a separate private cattery for cats. Grooming is offered too, so a dog can go home clean after a stay.

What does the kennel offer?

The setup is practical and built around giving dogs room to move. Key features include:

• 61 indoor/outdoor runs, with covered outdoor runs for shelter from the weather
• Air-conditioned and heated indoor runs
• A 40×60 ft exercise and play yard
• 24-hour on-site supervision
• Daycare, grooming, and medication administration

What sets Farm-View Kennels apart?

The property itself is the big draw. Nature walks on the 26-acre grounds are available for an additional charge, and a 6-foot security fence surrounds the property. The kennel describes its approach as caring and compassionate, with staff taking time to play with and exercise each animal so it doesn't get lonely or bored.

Dogs with particular needs are covered as well. The kennel provides individual supervised diets and can handle special diets. Staff can also give medication during a stay, which helps owners of older dogs or pets on a treatment schedule.
