Barn-sitting
Hi all,
I was wondering if any of you take care of horses for people when they go away. I got an email from a woman with 2 foster horses, asking what I would charge to visit twice a day to feed. The kicker is that she's 15 miles away, which is quite a distance for 2x/day. How much would you charge? I'm not sure why she can't find someone closer, I guess she is just wondering how much to expect to pay- and now I''m curious as well. I want to keep in mind that these are rescue horses she's fostering, so if I actually got the job I would probably give her a huge break because I really admire that. But times are tight so I also need to be making a bit of a profit.
