Frequently Asked Questions

Can Ponies 'R' Us come to our event location, or do we visit the farm?
The business operates as both a mobile service and an on-site farm attraction. They can bring animals directly to your event venue, or you can visit them in New Boston for an on-farm experience. Call (734) 740-5831 to discuss which option works best for your situation.
What types of animals are included in the mobile petting zoo?
Mobile petting zoos typically feature a mix of gentle animals such as goats, sheep, rabbits, and of course ponies. The exact lineup can vary, so ask when you book what animals will be available for your event date.
How much space do you need to set up a petting zoo or pony rides?
Pony ride setups generally require a flat, open area of at least 30 to 40 feet in diameter to walk safely in a circle. Petting zoo setups need room for temporary fencing and animal pens. Share your venue details when you book and they can confirm whether the space will work.
Are pony rides safe for very young children?
Pony rides are designed with young children in mind, and a handler walks alongside each animal throughout the ride. Most providers set a minimum age or size requirement, so ask about those specifics when you call.
Can I book just the petting zoo without the pony rides?
Many providers offer their services individually or as combined packages. When you reach out, let them know exactly what you're looking for and they can put together a quote based on your preferences and budget.
What happens if it rains on the day of our outdoor event?
Weather policies vary by provider, so it's important to ask about cancellation and rescheduling options before you book. Some providers have covered setup options, while others may need to reschedule outdoor events due to safety concerns for the animals.
