Our sweet Golden Retrievers, Lucy and Hunter, were such a big part of our lives! Lucy was our first pet and truly the queen of our home, and a few years later, Hunter joined the family. Although they recently passed away, they will always hold a special place in our hearts. We also have Miele, whom we lovingly call Millie. She's absolutely obsessed with balls and has the biggest heart!

Harley, our first horse, was gifted to us and brought a calm, steady strength that still grounds our ranch. As an older horse, she teaches patience, trust, and connection.

In 2025, Chyloh joined us—a sweet, overlooked horse now learning to trust, feel safe, and find peace. Together, they are a beautiful reminder of second chances.

Ginger came to us in need of a home when the petting zoo she lived at closed, and quickly found her place here. Soon after, Maryanne was gifted to us from an alpaca rescue so Ginger could have a companion.

Together, these quiet, shy queens have become the sweetest sisters, finding comfort, friendship, and a peaceful life side by side.

Maverick is our first livestock guardian pup, born to a rescued Great Pyrenees with a story of her own. He’s a happy, energetic, and devoted protector. Maverick brings both joy and a strong sense of security to our growing animal family.

Duke came to us after his caretaker at a rescue ranch passed away, and we were honored to give him a home and instantly fell in love. He loves hugs, adores his favorite goat Enola, and has a talent for eating everyone else’s hay. His classic donkey bray keeps us laughing daily.

We rescued several mama goats abandoned in the hills, and soon after, nine babies were born here on the ranch. We were able to find loving homes for most of the mamas and babies, while keeping one special mama, Enola, and three babies. With more milk than we could imagine, Enola became the heart behind our goat milk soap, where our soap journey began.

10 years ago, friends moved to the city, and we adopted their 20 hens. And we have been adopting chickens ever since. Besides our golden retrievers, they were the first animals on Golden Hill Ranch. Over the last 10 years, we have taken in all the chickens who need a place to retire or just need a good home. We love our chickens

Our two cats are quiet and shy, often keeping to themselves. But when it comes to Millie, they can’t resist. They love to snuggle up close and spend their days peacefully napping by her side.
