She and her son work unceasingly to make it a great place for horses and owners.  Dani has an amazing natural rapport with animals as evidenced by the puppy rescue she is also involved in. Best of all, the horses all seem happy and enjoy the regular irrigated pasture turnout year round.

I was recently given a (surprise) first riding lesson with Four Star Farm, and my world will never…read morebe the same! As a neophyte to everything equestrian, I began the lesson with the simple goal of surviving what I assumed would be an hour of fear and embarrassment followed by an afterglow of melancholic guilt. Once the lesson began, however, I experienced several important revelations: 1. I'm a self-absorbed neurotic who overthinks everything. 2. Learning to ride is thrilling but not once did I experience fear. 3. Horses are incredibly affectionate and intuitive creatures. Interacting with them had a remarkably calming effect on my over-stimulated amygdala. 4. Natalie is an amazing teacher, with a pedigree of competitive accomplishments that were mostly lost on me. It felt akin to taking a drivers-ed class from Danica Patrick. It didn't hurt that the setting is beautiful and idyllic. The facility (Valley Dressage and Sport Horse Center) feels professional and well run but with a comfortable, informal atmosphere that I appreciate. Admittedly, I have nothing to compare my experience against, but my sense is that I was quite lucky to have taken my first ridding lesson with Four Star Farm.

Stacy treated my dog as her own (along with also watching my sister's puppy & rabbit at the same time) and sent daily updates with pictures. She made sure my dog got plenty of activity and love while I was gone! My worries were quickly relieved knowing my dog was in good, caring hands. Anytime I've seen Stacy since then, my dog is so excited to see her; the loving relationship she has with the animals she cares for truly shows. It is hard to find a trustworthy and reliable dog sitter, but Stacy goes above & beyond to make sure your animals are well taken care of while you're away. She exceeded all of my expectations and I would highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a pet sitter!

I bought three small goats, admittedly without knowing much about them. The breeder I got them from…read moretold me that there was nothing to it and research online suggested it was fairly straight forward. It wasn't. On the third night, one of the little guys died suddenly. I called every vet in the area and none could or wanted to help. Frankly, I was not expecting to get any help at all. After all, the goat was dead, but I wanted to know the cause and prevent the other two from shuffling off their mortal coils. We were also very saddened by this. Enter Dr. Varga. I know there are angels because she's one of them. She came, took a look at the goats including Jambo, the one that had died. She then provided a plethora of preventative shots, gave me advice on feeding and care. She also volunteered to take the little guy to Davis for a necropsy. It's hard to explain how grateful I am. As saddened as I was, I felt suported and really felt that she cared deeply about animals. This wasn't just a job for her and for that, I'll always be thankful.

After working together for so long, Garnet's trust in me has developed to the point where we frequently get compliments from strangers on his focus and behavior.

So many of Juniper's recommendations have been woven into my life with Garnet and changed how I work with him and handle him in many ways. There are some things we still won't do (dog parks, off leash crowded hikes) but Garnet's life is so much richer than I would have envisioned it when we first started training sessions when he was 1.5 years old.
