I get updates daily while I'm away, photos to enjoy of my animals, and come home to my barn, stalls, and coops cleaner than I ever get them. I have complete peace of mind while I'm gone and have the benefit of a highly skilled farm sitter with multiple equine first aid, pony club, and 4H certificates under her belt."
