  • Description

    For the last 8 years I've been working in occupational health and for 7 years before that I was working in the food and service industry, as well as doing pet sitting and dog walking for the last few years. Whilst I have found joy in being able to help people and caring for animals, all I've ever really wanted is to be surrounded by nature, learning how to grow my own food in a sustainable way, with people that share the same values as me. I'm very passionate about animals, with experience looking after all kinds of pets over the years and would love to learn more about livestock animals and how to care for them. In my personal time I enjoy hiking and trying out different kinds of workouts. I love cooking and baking, and finding new recipes to make and enjoy with those around me. I'm also content to spend time by myself and enjoy lots of quiet hobbies like reading and doing puzzles.

  • More details about your skills

    I have 5 years experience with caring for pets and house sitting. During this time I've cared for elderly pets, pregnant pets, kittens and puppies, I've administered oral and injected medication, as well as caring for birds, lizards, guinea pigs and once a snake. I'm excited to continue to learn about different animals and I'm not afraid to get stuck in. I've also spent this time becoming adept at domestic work, ensuring the houses that I stay at are kept clean and well looked after. I'm a good home cook and baker, and I'm happy to cater to dietary needs. I have some experience with home DIY, painting, sanding, building furniture ect. I'm fit and healthy and happy to help with any physical work needed.
    I have experience with administration work such as taking calls and emails, ordering supplies, invoice processing, as well as customer service and complaint management.
    I'm also familiar with working customer facing jobs since my time in the service industry and would love to help out with events.
