Ryder Beach Farm

Pet care experience

I Live on a small horse farm on 9 acres - short walk to beach. Resident critters are my three dogs, four cats, two horses, two pgymy goats, two donkeys, eight Pilgrim Geese, and 25+- chickens. I have cared for dogs and cats my whole life, farm creatures the last twenty years. I work from a home office so other than my morning horse ride, errands and some meetings outside office, I am in residence. I have a rental apartment on the farm and allow guests to bring a dog, so off-season when rentals scarce it is easy for me to accommodate another guest dog! And in season, when I do not have a guest's dog in residence, I'm also happy to accommodate another dog! Farm critter savvy dogs preferred (my dogs trained to stay out of paddocks and out of hoof reach ) but "newbies" okay too - per Rover policy (and mine) just have to be on a leash at all times when outside. Please note a secure collar or harness (preferred) is required, and a current vaccination record provided prior to booking.

Harriet was awesome with our dog. She sent me several pictures over the weekend and I felt like he was having a great time with her animals as well! I will def use her again if I’m in the area!

Harriet is a wonderful caretaker, and her farm was a wonderful place for Merlina to stay for a long weekend - Merlina was very well looked after, Harriet was a great communicator, and it was such fun to visit with all Harriet's animals at dropoff and pickup!
