I stayed at Val and Roger's for just under 2 months (Februar/March), and I had such an amazing time whilst I was there. The family are so welcoming and I felt comfortable straight away.

This farm was my first experience with Workaway. I stayed with Val five weeks and had a very good time on this farm. I didn’t worked hard and had a lot of free time. I weed the garden, fed the dogs and cats, cleaned the litter box, vacuumed the floor. I spent most of my time with Val brushing the horses and leading the horses during the riding… read more

I stayed 3 weeks with Val and Roger on their beautiful acreage and I had an amazing time there. I mostly worked with Val and I helped her with lessons, groceries, feeding dogs and cats, cooking and cleaning the house. The work was very fair and we took regular breaks. Besides, we gave Roger a hand with whatever kind of project he needed some help… read more

I stayed with Val & Roger almost 2 1/2 months in Winter 2021/22. They have a really nice little ranch in the outer Edmonton area and I helped with looking after their lovely dogs, cats and horses and the property, while both we're working. In the Winter there is not a lot to do, besides some general work and some little projects. Some of their… read more

I stayed at Val and Roger’s Acreage for 3 weeks and it was just what I needed at that point. There wasn’t much to do but it never got boring. Unfortunately most of their horses were out in a summer pasture at the time so I didn’t get to train horses but I really enjoyed spending time with Matt and Jaimie. We had some fun bonfires and BBQs with… read more

I really enjoied the stay with Val and her family. The trail rides were always fun and they would also help me with my problems, especially Val. Thanks to Reg and Gammy, too, who took me fishing with them. Not to forget Thanksgiving, which I hadn't celebrated before, so it was a very special experience to me, thank you so much.

I had an awesome time at Val´s place. The family welcomed me very kindly. Though I only stayed for 2 weeks over silvester I experienced a lot of cool new things like skidooing, seing a real canadian handmade woodhouse or helping Roger doing ferrier work. It was really nice of them to take me with them every time they went out for dinner, ice… read more

I have been here now for 5 weeks, and still have 3 weeks left. What can I say.. Val is the best host you can imagine. You are really a part of the family and invited to every single event they attend. For example I went ice fishing, skating, skidooing and tobogganing and even to Val's weekly yoga classes! If you're not up for it, that's also fine.… read more
