Descrição
I am travelling Canada on a working holiday VISA for 2 years having just finished my degree alongside work. With my new freedom I’m hoping to gain some new experiences, explore new places, and connect with new people.
I am quiet and easygoing person, happiest in nature and I adore animals (especially dogs). I love hiking and have done some kayaking but I am hoping to do some more. I am keen to learn on a job to help out, and have been told I have a keen eye for detail. I look forward to making new friendships as I explore the beautiful country of Canada.
Hoping to gain more experience working with animals as this is a huge passion of mine. I am also interested in learning about organic farming, an interest that I have gained through previous workaways.
Fully vaccinated.

I had an incredible time at Pat and Emilia’s in June, they are both so lovely and have the two most gorgeous and loving golden retrievers I’ve ever met.
I spent most of my time at the lake property doing work outside as the weather was great, although they are very flexible and provided me with indoor chores also for if I wanted a change. There… read more

Amy helped us at our cottage for 2 weeks in June 2024. She weeded the garden, stained our deck and dock while also cleaning the basement.
She is a hard worker and has a wonderful personality. We would welcome her back.

I feel really lucky to have stayed with Mike and Edie and gotten to know them a bit. They are some of the loveliest people I’ve met, and took such good care of me and ensured I had a good experience and saw the best of the local area. I was genuinely sad to leave- I could have stayed so much longer (especially for Edie’s amazing cooking)!

Amy left today after a 2.5 week stay and I was sad to see her go. She's such a lovely young woman, full of energy and fun. Amy's also a hard worker and really organized. She did lots of gardening, cleaning and some dog sitting. Goose (the dog) will miss her too. If you have a chance to host Amy, take it! You'll be very pleased. I hope to see her… read more

I was with Heather and Hamish for just two weeks, and I felt right at home. They were very kind, welcoming and great to talk with. From the start they were super flexible which allowed me to make the most of my time. I mostly worked in the garden and did some light housework, and looking after chickens and cuddly cats whilst they were away.

Amy was with our family for a couple of weeks this fall. She helped with house and garden, and lovingly accepted intense cuddling from pushy pets. She is kind and hardworking and lovely to be around. I wish we had more time to spend together but if we weren't working we were away (while she held down the fort).

Amy is an excellent WorkAway volunteer and a super nice person too! If you get a chance to host them, take it.
Amy was the perfect buddy for our puppy, and all of us, both human and canine alike, hope that Amy comes back and keeps telling those terrible terrible jokes. :-)

I had the most wonderful week at Suzanne's. It was my first Workaway and I felt so comfortable and at home. It rained for some of my visit, so we did some inside jobs as well as garden projects. Suzanne was great at showing me what to do and I learned a lot from her. She took me to so many beautiful places, and daily walks and cuddles with Esther… read more
