  • Description

    Hi there,

    I'm Ashley and during my time in the UK and Australia I worked as animal keeper and enjoyed doing wildlife photography in the spare time. I enjoy most outdoor jobs such as gardening and weeding and of course anything with animals is great. I also enjoy other types of work including general house work and helping around where I can. In my work I had the opportunity to build enrichment for my animals as well as maintenance work for enclosures and would the chance to build upon my DIY skills and help with building projects. I have also worked plenty of hospitality, admin and reception jobs and am happy to organise or help with anything indoors too that might need doing. I'm hoping to travel New Zealand and work along the way if possible, there's so much that I want to see. I am keen to meet lots of new people, travel and see new things!

  • More details about your skills

    From my animal keeping roles I can clean enclousures or muck out to a high standard, help with feeding animals and create and provide enrichment. I have also gained some basic maintenance skills from fixing fences to building a goat playground and I am always keen to learn some new building or DIY skills. Alongside this I have experience organising files from my zookeeping records to my reception and admin roles and would be happy to help sort anything.
