Frequently Asked Questions

Look for a clean, well-maintained facility with safe fencing, spacious stalls, and quality feed. Check if they offer pasture turnout, on-site veterinary care, and proper security. Talking to current boarders and observing how the horses are cared for can give you insight into the facility’s quality.

The cost depends on location, facilities given, and type of boarding. Basic pasture boarding is usually more affordable, while full-care boarding with stall space, feeding, grooming, and turnout services is more expensive. Expect to pay anywhere from a few hundred to over a thousand dollars per month.

A full-care boarding package typically includes daily feeding, stall cleaning, fresh water, turnout, and routine wellness checks. Some facilities also offer blanketing, grooming, training, and medical care coordination for an additional fee.

Many facilities allow you to bring your own feed, supplements, or bedding, but it’s important to check with the barn manager. Some facilities require boarders to use their feed program to ensure all horses receive a consistent diet.

Most facilities allow boarders to visit during set hours, while some offer 24/7 access. If you plan on riding frequently, ask about arena access, lesson schedules, and trail availability before choosing a facility.

Boarding facilities usually have protocols for emergencies. Some provide on-site veterinary care, while others require you to coordinate with your own vet. Make sure you discuss who will handle medical decisions in your absence and if the facility has an emergency contact plan.
