History

Established in 2012.

2010 came and I decided to make a vision board. I guess a new year is always a great time to set goals and see what happens. My vision board consisted of a few different categories: health, our ranch (there was a picture of a red and white beautiful barn), time spent with the ones I love etc… I put it on the wall in my office. Mostly to remind myself of the things I wanted to work towards. Sometimes it just made it easier to get to work every day. I also believed that if I dreamed big enough that maybe just maybe they would come true. Well without the whole story I will just say that that year a miracle happened. We got that beautiful red barn. The one that I had dreamed about since I was a little girl.

In 2012, we decided that we wanted to board dogs. We now have 3 indoor-​outdoor kennels, and are looking to expand those next year. We are all big dog lovers. So being able to watch other people’s dogs helps me not want to go get more dogs of our own.

I am a mom of 4 with a love for the Country Life. Although I did not grow up in the country I have my father in me. He loves horses, cows, and dirt. I too have the same love. My sister always says that I would rather be home mucking stalls watching my kids ride horses than anywhere else.

My first job besides being a mom is a real estate professional. One of my first sales was my mom and dads Ranch in Sutter Ca. Watching my dad on the ranch made me realize that this was exactly where I wanted to be. There is just something about going home and tending to horses and dogs. They get so excited to see you. Maybe that’s because it feeding time twice a day
