I had someone helping me since early this year who will be leaving the end of the month to return to family. My business is expanding and my own personal needs more evolved. I am seeking not just a worker but a special soul who can assist me in life & I them.
I am seeking an energetic, physically able, positive attitude, dog and animal loving person. The job requires some lifting, cleaning animal areas which means using a pitch fork, shovel, heavy mop and broom. It often means getting up at 7am to go and check on everyone, give large buckets of water twice a day, have a good attitude around the dogs, never a crappy dismissing disposition. Someone that can walk a 140 pound dog and not be intimidated. I need someone that is somewhat of a self starter and will do what needs to be done without a blow blow account of each task. This person genuinely loves animals, being around them, being outside and living in the country.
I am seeking someone who can run errands, help with the house and able to see a long term vision rather then just get by. They are motivated and ready for an awesome journey.
I offer private room and shared house with cable, internet, cell phone and 125.00 a week cash. You have no bills except your own food. The right person will also be eligible for bonuses based on performance. If they are handy they would be paid extra for repairs outside of their job description.
As we grow and expand I may also at some point consider health insurance for the right person. The job requires at least 30 to 40 hours a week. You may work a few hours in the morning, take a break a few hours, return later. I'm very flexible as long as your work gets done and all animals have fresh water and clean living space. I've seen some people get the job done in 30 hours while others need more.
No drugs, no heavy drinking, I prefer someone that doesnt smoke but will consider a casual smoker (I do not allow smoking in the house or animals areas so if you need to take a smoke break every 30 min this job is not for you), no drama or bad attitudes. The farm has a very special energy but is easily effected by negativity or someone who can not dial in.
I would consider a trial if you'd like to see if you can commit to this but this is not a vacation. You provide your own transportation and you must be willing to provide a standard background check. I'm not interested in your credit score or any of that shit. I am interested in any criminal activity. I would also want at least two verifiable job references & personal references. Basically what many employers would expect today.
I have people in my area I can hire but at this point in my life I'm looking for a style of living and to be around others of like mind. (Queers) I'm looking for a family type person who wants to contribute the betterment of our home and life on the farm.
In addition the full time worker I have an extra room and would also consider exchanging room, cable and internet in exchange for 20 hours a week to help out. It involves no pay and the same expectation as above applies.
Please email me at
tamara@dancingcreekfarm.com with an introduction and tell me why you think you may be a good fit. A little background and a resume if you have one.
Thank you
