This has been a very busy summer for us at Selkirk Farmsitting Services, with both Ariel and I, Barb, caring for a wide variety of animals in unique settings. I am currently caring for animals in one of my favorite settings. This home is located on a mountain with woods and a large pond. Most of the critters are Feathered Friends in all sizes and shapes. They also have two cats and three loveable, playful dogs who are masters in letting their demands known. They are such a joy and over time we have developed a special bond.
But my post today is more about how this family let's nature take it's course. The animals are allowed the freedom to room and reproduce in a natural environment. They are provided shelter and one of the dogs makes sure predators are kept away as much as possible in this environment. For me, it is joy to visit and see what new critters I will be caring for, always a new adventure.
Here are a few photos of this unique farm and the critters that make it their home.

This week while my mom sits with our beloved "puppy boys", I, Ariel, am caring for two farms. It's been a minute since I've milked cows and goats but I haven't lost my knack for it. In addition to the milkers, I am caring for pet goats, chickens, geese, pups & kitties and even a guinea pig. This summer is pretty much filled up but we still have dates available for this Fall. If you have holiday get aways planned for this winter be sure to reach out soon as these times are limited.

Hanging out with these cuties for a few days. My job is such fun!

The feeling of satisfaction from a hard job done right!
With the subzero temperatures the past week, a lot of the p**p was frozen solid to the ground. With today's warmer temperature, I was able to give this barn a much needed overhaul. The stress this messy barn caused all week has finally be relieved with the physical activity as well as knowing I am doing my job to the expected standard.

One of the things we at Selkirk Farmsitting Services offer is caring for your animals in the comfort of their own homes. We believe this helps to reduce anxiety and stress when their caretakers must be gone for a while. We set up a contract with the owners, which spells out the needs and routines of each animal. We do our best to follow this plan, which includes more than feeding or cleaning pens, it includes things like exercise, play time, or just cuddles. To give the owners peace of mind, we provide daily reports with pictures or videos.
Our team takes pride in giving your beloved animals the best care possible.

My second job this week is pet/house sitting for a dear friend. I am blessed that they have entrusted us to care for their home and precious pets. A bonus is being able to spend time in such a relaxing setting. I have the best job ever

I have had the privilege of pet sitting at two different locations this week. One is a repeat customer, and I am fortunate that Ariel will share these two adorable boys with her Mom. They are just the cutest little guys and turn a difficult day into a great day. How could you not fall in love.

We at Selkirk Farmsitting Services LLC feed & water critters and plants. We scoop & cuddle too.

One of our most recent farm sitting jobs was like going on a mini retreat. The farm is located in a beautiful country setting, complete with a cascading creek that flows downhill, past the home, and into a large pond, where the ducks float about. Playing fetch with the dogs provides hours of entertainment. There was a little concern for the many plants on the deck when a fast moving rain and hail storm moved in. Fortunately, all was well for the animals as they and I seeked shelter, and no damage was done to the plants.

Couldn't have asked for a better welcome for our latest pet sitting job.

Busy weekend for us. We rallied the troops to help previous customers in a time of need. They had a medical emergency, and fortunately, we
were able to assist on short notice. I love going to this farm and taking care of these critters. The two dogs in the first photo are such fun and were my constant companions.
Our calendar is beginning to fill, so if you need our services, contact us and get your request on the calendar.

February has been a busy month for us. From several farm stays to feed & goes that have kept us on our toes. We are so thankful for our fur friends and their human companions.

01/09/2023

We were very busy the month of December so we are taking it easy this next two months. We have a few openings for feed & go appointments for February. Thank you to all our customers for a wonderful 2022.

Merry Christmas! Spending the Holiday with this special guy. Love that I can be a blessing.

Such a pleasure watching these two sweet boys.

Enjoying cuddles with sweet Gracie. Best way to relax on a drizzly Saturday.

These bachelors are quite the bunch. All tucked in for the night with their two guardians.

Last week I had the pleasure of taking care of a beautiful farm.

On to the next farm where I feed mules, horses, chickens, cats & dogs.

Big mommas & babies waiting their turn.

Crias before coffee. Did you know that baby alpacas are called crias (cree ahs)? I was up early to give Sweetpea her first bottle of the day.

The following is our rate sheet. We are able to offer some customization depending on circumstances. For example, a few clients have puppies that need more supervision than our feed and go services allow but don't necessarily need our extended stay over services. Please feel free to call and discuss how we may be able to meet your needs.

It is such a joy to care for my friends while their people are away.

08/23/2022

Freckles was glad to see that I had finally finished my rental remodeling project so I could once again care for him during his owner's absence.
Yes, I am available for both feed and go and overnight stays. My mom has also decided to join the business and is already booked for an overnight pet sitting job. If you have plans for a get away and need our services be sure to call or pm us.

Love caring for the sweethearts.

March & April have been busy with several farmsitting & petsitting jobs. We will have limited domestic pet sitting during May & June. We are unavailable for farmsitting during these months due to prior commitments.

03/13/2022

I am passionate about the service I provide. Taking care of pets in their own environment reduces the stress they go through when their people are away. These two brothers are a delight and quite entertaining.

01/01/2022

Wishing all my fur friends and their people a Happy New Year! Thank you so much for a wonderful 2021!

Farmsitting isn't for the faint of heart.

11/27/2021

This week has been a busy one for sure. I have had the joy of caring for several species including a hamster and lizard. I offer feed and go services as well as stay over. With the crazy mix of weather it's been blankets off and blankets on. I even offer stall cleaning services while I am sitting or feeding.
