About the Owner, Ann Kanitz
Licensed, expert care. Loving environment.
I am Ann Kanitz, owner/operator. After purchasing At Last Farm in 1989, I started the Dog Day Camp in 2006, later adding home-style boarding. Wanting visitors to the coast and locals alike to have the opportunity to explore places and enjoy activities that were not dog-friendly. At the same time, introducing city dogs to the joys, scents, sights, and sounds of life on a rural farm. And so At Last Farm Dog Day Camp & Boarding was born.
Since the beginning, it’s been a passionate to to use my expertise to create a healthy, safe environment, to ensure that dogs in my care enjoy a wonderful vacation and return to their owners healthy, happy, and relaxed.
I am fully licensed by the county of Mendocino and insured. My qualifications include membership in APDT and the National Association of Professional Pet Sitters, CPR certification for Dogs & Cats, graduate from the K9 Behavior Academy Part 1, offered through the Marin Humane Society, and a variety of other courses in canine behavior by the best teachers. I also I belong to several professional canine groups.
I continue to improve my skills and participate in seminars and workshops while refining and upgrading the property, ensuring that your dogs always receive the highest standard of care.
The heritage farm is certified by the National Wildlife Federation as Wildlife Habitat.
I have shown Tibetan Terriers in AKC show for confirmation. I have whelped 4 litters of Tibetan Terriers, a breed I have been in for over 30 years.
The family was at Mendocino for vacation and needed someone to watch our 2 dogs for a day. We were very happy with the level of care that At Last showed for our dogs. Ann discussed her approach with us before hand until we felt comfortable. Our dogs were very happy under her care. Thanks a million to Ann.
It is a great place to let your dogs enjoy their stay while you can relax knowing they are in great hands. When driving toward Ann’s, my dogs start going crazy when we turn onto her street…they know it is fun ahead. At Last Farm is the best place on the Mendocino Coast to board your dogs.
Thank you, Ann. It was clear Zelda had the time of her life visiting with you & we will forever be grateful.And anytime we come back to the Mendocino area we will definitely have Zelda stay @ At Last Farms again! We highly recommend this wonderful place to anyone who visits the area. Best doggie place ever! We can’t thank you enough Ann! You’re amazing 🙂
