We have plenty of Volunteer Opportunities available and we would love for you to volunteer at our rescue. But, just like we are very careful and particular in selecting the right person to adopt, we do the same for our volunteers. The role of volunteer is very important to us – in fact – we do not call you a volunteer, but rather an Ambassador.
We use this term to represent your commitment to serving the horses as their advocate, caregiver, and friend. Those traits are what make up a Layla Rose Ranch Ambassador.
There are 3 Categories for serving as an Ambassador:
- Care
- All of our horses need love and care. From grooming to quality time to mucking the stalls and paddocks.
- These take place during the morning and afternoon feeds typically 8:30am and 4:30pm
- Training
- Each of our horses need training. From basic ground work to desynthesizing.
- Facility Maintenance
- While the facility is entirely paid for and no money from donations goes to it, we still need help keep it in premium shape for the horses. Trimming trees, keeping up with the weeds, deep cleaning the barns as just some of the things we need help with.
Everyone who serves as an Ambassador with us must complete an application. We are as careful about who can volunteer as we are who can adopt. All Ambassadors must be 17 years of age or older (unless accompanied onsite with their parent.) All Ambassadors accept full responsibility for their behavior onsite and release Layla Rose Ranch from any and all liability for injury or damage to their person or property.
