Anything animal related! I am happy to pet sit, work with horses and farm animals. I also enjoy a bit of gardening, but can't say I've got as much experience in that area, but very willing to learn!

Descripción

Hi! I am just finishing up my veterinary medicine degree, doing my finals and electives in May then will hopefully graduate as a veterinary surgeon in July. I want to go into first opinion ambulatory equine work, but I have experience with all animals big and small :) I love working with horses both ridden and on the ground (groundwork probably preferred these days!) and I have worked at a busy dog kennels before. I would love to spend some time between now and starting work exploring other countries and cultures in between being helpful! I am quiet, clean and polite, would be travelling solo and I don't have much travel experience but would love to start. I was born in Poland but moved to England when I was 3, and I still speak Polish with my family. I did used to learn French for many years in school and got pretty good at it, but I've forgotten it all now!

Would be very happy to pick up some basic phrases/conversations in multiple languages. Would be particularly happy to see how much French I could remember, but also interested in Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, German. In exchange I am happy to teach English and Polish!

Que habilidades tienes?

Hopefully graduating as a vet (wanting to go into equine work) in July, so I am knowledgable on all aspects of animal care! But more specifically my experience includes:
- 20 weeks of animal husbandry placements with many species - dogs, cats, horses, cattle, sheep (including lambing), pigs, chickens, exotics, alpacas. 28 weeks of clinical vet practice placements, and 34 weeks of clinical rotation placements within the university, so I am very comfortable if there is any jobs involving giving medications and watching for symptoms.
- Worked at a busy dog boarding kennels during uni holidays, up to 75 dogs of all sizes/breeds/temperaments in during peak seasons working to take care of them in a team of 2-3 people. Also done shelter/charity work with dogs, cats and rabbits.
- Have experience of all sorts of equine-based industries; riding schools, livery yards, stud farms, trainers, helping with events such as endurance.
- I own 2 lovely house rabbits that have free roam of my house, Bueno and Mocha. I also share a cheeky 17hh ISH mare that I used to have full time for a while, and have had several loans over the 12 years I have been riding for. I enjoy groundwork like lunging, walking, long lining etc and have experience with youngsters. I am a gentle rider who can walk, trot, canter, gallop and do small (80cm max) jumps but I am not competitive and I am very open to tips etc - I prefer to have a little plod around on a hack than intense schooling these days. At my parents' we own a very opinionated German shepherd called Leia, so I am very used to big dogs with big personalities!
- In my gap year between finishing A Levels and starting vet school I worked at Center Parcs as a waitress, so I do also have waiting and customer service experience. I've also helped with loads of things like disovery days at university.
- I enjoy teaching older (7 ) children, I am happy to try teach some English, Polish and sciences or tell them more about the vet world. I would love to become a lecturer one day in my distant future.
- I have had a full clean UK driving license since Sept 2019 and I am most happy driving a manual and comfortable with larger cars/vans, but I may not be able to afford a rental whilst abroad.

Algo más...

I do not have much travel experience as I am quite afraid of flying, but this year I really want to challenge myself to get over this fear (I have flown last year but with a friend, never alone) and explore more of the world! My availability is a bit limited with my schedule and I also have to think about my pets at home as do not want to burden my parents/friends with them for too long. I am currently waiting to see what happens vet-job wise after I graduate to see if I can plan any more longer trips, but if you want a reliable, knowledgable pet sitter that is happy with giving medications within Europe for a short trip I may be interested!
