Horse Sitting
Providing your horse(s) the care they need while you are away so you don't have to worry.
"Michelle gave me peace of mind I needed to enjoy my vacation knowing my horse would be well looked after. My horse gets a specialty mix of feed and supplements and can occasionally get himself into trouble but Michelle made sure he was feeling his best. She let me know of any issues and was able to provide additional care as needed. I'm grateful to be able to leave my horse in her care!"
