More details about your skills
I’ve always loved spending time with animals and helping to take care of them. At home, I’ve looked after several cats and small pets like rabbits.
I also spent a lot of time with horses and have been involved in the care by looking after them, feeding them and cleaning the pasture and stables.
Since I was little I have loved dogs and since we didn't have any ourselves I started going to the animal shelter early on and did dog sitting/ walking jobs nearby.
I was able to learn a bit about farm life when I helped out on a nearby farm.

I like practical and physical work and learning new skills, especially when it’s something meaningful. I have always enjoyed building things myself, carrying out craft projects, helping with renovation work and doing outdoor tasks like gardening.

Cooking and baking are other things I enjoy, so I like to try out new recipes and I’m happy to help around the house or in the kitchen.

Growing up with a younger brother and several younger cousins gave me experience in childcare.

I worked in a bakery for over a year, where I learned about customer contact and processes and was involved in the sale of baked goods.

I'm looking forward to gaining new experiences and expanding my current knowledge :)

What else ...
I also love sunsets and the night sky. So you'll often find me just sitting there staring at the sky.
I really enjoy being in nature — hiking, gardening, going on bike rides or just spending time outside.
I am also interested in photography, so I always take way too many pictures.
When I find a good book, I can completely lose myself in it and let my imagination run wild.
I love being creative: painting, drawing, crafting, anything at all.
Music has always been a big part of my life. I love listening to music, and the genres are quite diverse. But I also love making music myself, which is why I've played in several ensembles and always look for opportunities to sit down at the piano or pick up the ukulele and just sing to myself (and in the shower obviosly, haha).

I had a great stay with Anne for two weeks in march.
I traveled together with Nour who had stayed with Anne before.
Anne welcomed us in her home and made us feel very comfortable. The place was really nice and Anne gave us a lot of free time, so we got to explore the area, visit several cities (all extremely beautiful) and go on a few day trips.… read more

Linn is travelling with her friend Nour, who stayed with us before to help with the puppies, so I invited them both to do some house/petsitting. My plans were to travel abroad, but an unforeseen family crisis forced me to stay home. Linn and Nour were very helpful, not only taking care of the dogs, but also cooking family meals and helping out… read more

We had an amazing stay with Åsa at her home in Vattholma for two weeks in April.

The perfect weather allowed us to work a lot in her beautiful garden. We did a great variety of tasks, like building a fence, sawing wood, painting, general garden maintenance and small carpentry projects.
Åsa was very flexible and generous with the work hours. We… read more

Linn and Nour worked with me for two weeks in the spring of 2026, and it was a pleasure to have them here. I appreciated their company, and we had interesting conversations during their stay. They took on physically demanding garden work with a steady and positive approach, showed initiative, and handled smaller building projects independently.… read more

We had a wonderful stay with Sanne and Roy at their farm for 2 weeks in February.
They welcomed us in their community and we got to know many kind and funny people.
All the animals were incredibly sweet and feeding them was always a lot of fun.
Our other tasks included clearing the attic in the barn, demolishing the old chicken coop (that was… read more

Over the past few weeks, I've met so many beautiful souls, including Thomas and Diamanto and all their animals.
I spent almost four weeks with them, and I'll never forget them. The stay was a unique experience for me, and I learned so much. The first few days were a bit overwhelming, but they patiently showed and explained everything to me, and I… read more quickly settled into a routine. The work involved feeding the dogs, cleaning their enclosures, and changing their water. Afterward, we'd take several dogs for walks and, of course, have some cuddle sessions. In the afternoon, we'd take the goats out to graze in a meadow.

The volunteers also live with several cats, which we cared for and who were always up for playing or cuddling.
It was so nice having the cats around and I grew very fond of them. It feels strange not having them around anymore.

The dogs are all wonderful creatures with very different personalities. Most of them really enjoyed the human attention and wanted to be cuddled as much as possible. It was also lovely to see how the more timid ones slowly thawed out and gradually came to enjoy my presence. :)
I learned a lot about the behavior of dogs in a pack, as it differs significantly from that of an individual. You learn how the dogs communicate with each other and with people, how to interpret their behavior and how to act and react in specific situations.
I've grown very fond of these loyal souls and will miss them dearly. I will never forget them, and they will always hold a special place in my heart.

During my stay, I had the pleasure of meeting several volunteers, and I thoroughly enjoyed working with them and spending time together. Thank you for the wonderful time we shared. 🫶

Diamanto and Thomas are two incredibly wonderful and inspiring people, and what they do at the shelter is so important. It's truly remarkable how they manage everything, and I hope I was able to lend a helping hand over the past few weeks. They stand up against the opinions and expectations of those around them and give everything for the animals, which is truly remarkable, and they have my utmost respect for that. They are two incredibly hardworking people who love all their animals with all their hearts and deserve every kind of support.

On top of everything else, Diamanto still found time to cook delicious meals for us, which allowed us to experience traditional dishes and ensure we were never hungry.

I wish you all the best and hope we'll see each other again sometime and I can visit again.
I highly recommend this experience!

Thank you so much for everything! 🫶
Linn :)
