🌙 Introducing Autumn Moon Equine Care 🌙
Hi everyone — I’m Bonnie, owner of Autumn Moon Farm in Grafton, MA, and I’m excited to offer professional horse sitting services in Central Massachusetts.
I noticed a gap in this area, especially when I am trying to go on vacation with my husband, and I said to myself hey you have so much experience with horses (ALL KINDS OF HORSES, good the bad, mean, the kind sometimes and, tries to bite your butt when you turn your back kind) and LOVE HORSES MORE THAN ANYTHING except my husband, step kids and the rest of my family of course! ;)
With over 40 years of horse experience, I provide dependable, knowledgeable care while owners are away. I specialize in feeding, stall care, grooming, turnout, and daily wellness checks, all done in your horse’s own environment.
🐎 Experienced with private farms & individualized routines
📸 Updates and photos available
Availability is limited, so feel free to message me for details or to reserve dates.
