I am fully confident to teach English and/or Welsh (although I have no qualifications to do so, i’m just fluent) I’m very eager to learn the language of whatever country i’ll be in whilst travelling, French and Spanish i’m most interested in but it really doesn’t matter all that much!

Que habilidades tienes?
I’ve worked almost four years at an animal rescue centre/sanctuary, walking, feeding, cleaning and caring for the dogs as well as feeding the alpacas and horses.
I’ve worked on livery yards as a young adult and ‘own’ two horses myself (i dislike that word but not sure how else to put it the short way!) that i share with my mum and I’m an experienced rider, full tack or bareback and bit-less.
I’ve also done a load of other work, currently as a Veterinary Administrator at a local practice and Dog Handler at the centre, but I’ve worked as a Lifeguard, Sous Chef, Waitress and I’ve babysat plenty of times!
I’ve also done a bit of Welsh TV work acting, and I’ve been in a band that lasted a brilliant two years!

BIG fan of the card game Gin or Rummie, everyone i speak to says its the same game. I play a little backgammon too but rusty…so you know who to play against if you want a sure win.
I love to read, not sure if I mentioned that. Love a good film too when i get the chance.
I’m a cheery girl really but don’t ask me to work for you if you have a problem with swearing! (except in the presence of little’uns of course)
I work until my work is done. Not been without a job since i was 13 and I’m used to rough and harsh weather being where i’m from. I’m not scared of work, getting dirty or learning new skills!

Mali is a GREAT worker with a lot of energy.

Mali worked and lived with us from November 2023 to April 2024. Mali learned how to train and drive sled dogs in northern Saskatchewan, Canada. She picked up the skills needed quickly and was a great asset to our kennel of 65 sled dogs. A sled dog kennel is a lot of work and requires daily monotonous… read more

I worked for the family from December 2023 to April and all i can think to say initially is woah…what an experience!
Firstly i want to thank Charlie and the family for the experiences and memories made. You guys will never know how much you helped me on a mental level, i was in a rut when i came to you, and i feel like i’m leaving with a new found… read more respect and love for life…and dogs of course!
Bless you guys.
I want this review to be as honest as possible because thats one of the best descriptions i can give of Charlie, an honest and hardworking guy (with a good sense of humour!)
The winter season i spent with them was one with very minimal snow so we were training dogs using trucks and ATVs up until mid January, this was highly unusual as i was told. Once we got a decent amount of snow however, we were immediately on sleds and skidoos which was fun to learn how to use. You will gain so many skills working here, i thought i knew a thing or two about dogs but Charlies lifelong partnership with them has given me much more knowledge and respect for mans best friend and the role they played in the Cree’s history especially. The family introduced me to a lot of their friends and other family members who were all so amazing to meet, everyone was so friendly and kind to me, i felt right at home.
Don’t apply for this job if you get grossed out over raw meat (you’ll be working with it daily when it comes to feeding) and don’t apply if you’re looking for an easy ride, this work is not for the faint hearted. You’ll get tired, you will get things wrong sometimes, but Charlie will make sure to tell you and at the end of the day its something to laugh (and learn) about. This is ALL about the experience and knowledge you’ll gain so if you’re looking to work with dogs in this aspect and throw yourself into it 100%, this is the place for you.
There is NEVER a dull moment! And you wont feel bored either, daily chores include watering/feeding/poop scooping the dogs, then i’d straw the dog houses when needed and a lot of time spent with the pups training them as well as the yearlings.
In the run up to Charlies races we’d train the racing dogs once every 2 days starting at about 20 miles a day and working up to about 33 at the longest runs. It was really amazing to watch these incredible working dogs do what they love.
A lot of the time i spent was doing tours at various schools and communities, we did quite a bit of travelling to Alberta for tours and further up north in Saskatchewan too, it was a brilliant experience getting to know the kids and seeing their faces light up on the sled, the teachers too! It warmed my heart on the coldest of days. I also got the opportunity to do a couple races in northern Saskatchewan which was insanely cool. I really enjoyed the opportunity to meet other dog mushers and handlers.
I could go on and on about this place and its people, so if there’s something specific you want to know feel free to contact me!
