Alpacas grazing during the week + maintenance of their grounds

Job description

Are you free during the week on 1 or more days between 16:18 and 3:XNUMX? Do you have a heart for animals, more specifically for alpacas? Would you like to let our XNUMX alpacas graze regularly on our domain and help with the maintenance of the domain? This includes: 

  • Halters of alpacas
  • Let them graze on the grounds
  • Check if they still have enough water and hay and refill if necessary
  • Alpacas do their business in a few fixed places. To keep the terrain clean and avoid worms, this is taken to the manure heap. A shovel and wheelbarrow are available for this purpose

Desired profile

  • You are an animal lover
  • You are not afraid of alpacas and can handle these animals or are willing to learn how to do so
  • You have some free time at regular intervals
  • You have no problem with a child or young person coming to you to help sometimes. At the same time, you don't mind if there are days when this doesn't happen.

Our offer

  • Introductory meeting on campus
  • Necessary guidance. Currently, two volunteers are taking on these tasks. They are willing to do the activity together initially.
  • Volunteer agreement and necessary insurances
  • Shuttle allowance (0,10 euro/km, max. 30 km from campus; contribution to public transport ticket)
  • Invitations to meetings with other volunteers, to events on campus or the entire organization
  • Formative moments
