Description
We operate a therapeutic horseback riding program for people with a disability May - August. In March-May we are looking for Helpers to work with and prepare our therapy horses for lessons that start at the end of May. For these months we look for people with horse care experience. Other jobs could include facility maintenance and small projects.
From end of May-early August we run lessons 3-4 days / week. It's a fun and rewarding environment if you enjoy people and horses! Intermediate-advanced horse experience and/or experience in working with people, and fluency in English are required for these months.
After lesson months we look for helpers too. September-February we might ask for lesser hours in exchange for accommodation only: 15hr work/week. Own transportation is required for these off months.
Please contact us for more information!

Hébergement
Travellers stay in a dry cabin with power ( no running water). You will have access to our house for water. During the summer months we supply your food and you cook for yourself. Shower and laundry amenities are provided on site. We have internet access. We are a non-smoking family and ask that helpers respect this.
Our farm is located 25 km from Whitehorse. There is no bus service. We look for helpers who are interested in a peaceful stay here on your time off, who will enjoy their time in nature. We will provide opportunities to see the local sites and trips to town. If you are interested in exploring further or going to town more often, we ask that you plan this outside of your stay with us.

There are unlimited trails. Takhini Hotsprings and the Yukon Wildlife Preserve are within 10k away. There is opportunity to see our city for shopping and visiting local tourist sites.
