Amy was wonderful. We are very new to the area and needed someone to do some quick, lowkey drop ins for our cats while we were out of town. Amy was friendly, professional, and did a fantastic job caring for our cats.

Safety, trust & environment

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.

A typical day

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.
