Have and had- dogs,rabbits, hamsters, cats and fish.

I have always been a massive animal lover from when I would go into pet shops just to look at the animals begging my parents for more pets, walking people's dogs at canoe competitions whilst my family were watching the runs. At college studied now qualified in Animal Management Level 3 and volunteering at different kennels where I got to work with boarding and rescue dogs walking them, clean the kennels out, training and looking after other animals including ferrets, rabbits, ducks, chickens, birds, cats, goats, rheas and horses. Also volunteered at different equestrian based places that I also rode at. The equestrian unit at the college I went to and also a pony stables where I would help look after ponies, donkeys, rabbits, Guinea pigs, chickens and making friends with the owners adorable dogs! I have also house sat for a b and b looking after the b and b ponies, dogs and a chicken.

I currently work at a nature reserve cafe part time but absolutely love doing anything that involves working with animals and wildlife. My first job was in fact the pony stables where I would do kids pony parties where we would take the kids for rides, let them meet and greet the ponies also groom the ponies and we would plait their maine and tails , we would also do face painting and glitter tattoos and then at the end turn out the ponies to the field.
