About my home: I live in a 2 bedroom apartment above a horse barn. The farm backs up to an Agricultural Park with miles of nature trails. Boarding: I will take your dog on a daily adventure hike on the trails so they can explore and sniff (weather permitting). I have access to an enclosed indoor horse arena so your dog can run and sniff and play fetch. I will follow the schedule that you provide regarding feedings and number of potty breaks per day. Since my apartment is above a horse barn they may hear noises that they are not used to, for this reason I do require a meet and greet to make sure the horses do not cause your dog any added anxiety. I am in & out all day long, So I am able to attend to pets in need of frequent potty breaks. House sitting Same as boarding except your house will be the house that I am in & out of all day rather than mine. And the daily adventure hike would be in your neighborhood rather than the trails off my farm.

Information Amy L. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any special needs How often does your pet eat? Does your pet require Medication? How often do they require potty breaks? Are they potty trained? Do they chew household items? Do they have separation anxiety? How and where do they sleep?

lots of walks with one long walk (if dog is able) on the trails behind the farm. If your pup likes to play fetch then we usually go to the fenced in arena 1-2 times a day to play with a ball.
