Please remember!

The animals ALWAYS need your attention. Let us know 24 hours ahead if your are unable to make it to your scheduled time. Someone will need to fill your shoes in case you can’t get here for any unforeseen reason. The animals still have to be cared for, especially in the rain, sleet, heat and snow.
