"When you retire a very special horse (or two!), you want a place where your trusted partner can enjoy his or her retirement in a way that rewards for past performance.  For me, Westerly was the place where I knew a retired show horse would be able to enjoy life and “be a horse” while still being looked after carefully.  Kristina and her team have been wonderful to my horses, and have kept me closely informed when needed, giving me peace of mind when I am hours away.  Can’t recommend enough!" - AN

 

"My horses and I have been with Kristina at Westerly since 2014. It has been hands down our best boarding experience yet. One of the things about Kristina that makes her such a good person to board with is that she always answers her phone, responds to clients in real time so that there is no lag time in which anxiety goes up. She manages, along with her team of watchful horsemen, the care of a lot of horses with organization and experience which keeps both horses and their owners feeling safe, with a routine they can count on. When there are times that adjustments need to be made, Kristina is always available for discussion and compromise." - JE

 

"I boarded my horse with Kristina Novak and team for a year while living in the valley. I then moved across the country for continued training while she remained at Westerly for another year and a half. The entire time, my mare received the absolute best care. They truly treated her as one of their own, including recognizing a severe illness, acting appropriately to obtain treatment and diligently looking after her while she recovered. All this with unparalleled compassion and fairness! It was a huge relief knowing she was in such competent hands. I was recently reunited with my mare and was blown away by how well she was maintained. I’m forever grateful and highly recommend partnering with Kristina for your horse’s care!" - SS

 

"Westerly Stud & Equestrian is a beautiful facility. Miles of manicured trails with gorgeous views, eurociser, over-sized covered round pen; and large box stalls with attached paddock options are also available. Many amenities, and the best arena footing around. We always have such a fun group of horse owners here. Westerly is also a very quiet, and private facility, which creates a unique experience for all who are lucky enough to board their horses here. There are many improvements happening at the moment, and we are definitely looking forward for what is to come. Wonderful facility, care, and great group of people!" - RC
