Happy Animals Equals Happy Humans
Farm Sitting
Finding a trusted and reliable farm sitter while you’re away is hard. Our farm sitters are licensed and bonded; your pet’s safety is our #1 priority. We are invested in our staff’s training, including pet first aid and CPR.
Each farm animal is unique, so we customize each of our visits to the needs of your animals. Your animals are your family members, and we promise they’ll be safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. The owner Megan is also an accomplished upper-level eventer and still has her competition horse and makes sure that all sitters are trained and knowledgeable in equine first aid. We may not be you, but we’re the next best thing.

Tell Me More About Your Farm Sitting Service.
No two farm animals are the same, which is why we customize our services to meet your pets’ needs. You’ll provide detailed care instructions for your farm animals, and we promise to follow them. As a result, you’ll never have to worry about the care your farm animals receive.
We are a full-service farm-sitting company, and we’ll provide fresh food, water, and tons of love, check for any injuries, check the fence, bring in the mail and packages, and perform a home security check.
This service is for all farm animals and outdoor cats. We provide peace-of-mind care for equine, pigs, cows, chickens, donkeys, mules, peacocks, and exotic animals.
-
Are there any days that you don’t do pet sitting?We are available to pet sit 365 days a year in every type of weather, including rain, snow and summer heat.
-
Will I have the same pet sitter every time?You will be assigned a pet sitter based on your pets' needs, and which will best fit your animals' personalities. While we try to keep the same pet sitter on all visits, we may utilize additional staff members to provide coverage.
-
Are you insured and bonded?We are! We are a full-time, highly professional pet-sitting business that takes our reputation very seriously.
-
I have cameras in the house. We will be watching!We do not have a problem with cameras in the home. They protect us and prove that we are doing our job. However, we do not allow cameras in private areas such as bathrooms, changing rooms, or bedrooms.
-
Will you administer medication?We do! We are highly experienced in administering medications to pets. We do it all: liquid medications, pills, injections, subcutaneous fluids, or inhalers. At the meet and greet, we will document your pet’s routine and ensure your pet’s profile is updated in our software, so their information is at your pet sitter’s fingertips during each visit.
-
Will you provide references?We invite you to check out our reviews on Google and Facebook.
-
Will you guarantee a time?We provide pet-sitting visits during specific time frame windows. We cannot guarantee a particular arrival time, but we guarantee we’ll show up during your requested window.
-
How many visits are required?We customize our services to meet the needs of your pets. Cats require at least 1 visit per day. We do not provide every-other-day visits for cats. Adult dogs are 2-4 visits, depending on their needs. If they are kept in crates, they will need 3-4 visits.
-
How will I know that the visits are being done?Our industry-leading scheduling software keeps track of our sitters at all times. We know where they are and when they visit your home. If they aren’t on time, our office is promptly notified so we can activate our backup plans. In addition, you will receive an alert via our mobile app when your sitter has arrived at your home, and you’ll receive a detailed report card and pictures after the visit.
