Alyssa- Palmerston North [email protected]
My name is Alyssa. My goal is to do a job in an area I love, which is horses. I was wondering if you knew of any positions for a stable hand or grooms or anything to do with horses in the Palmerston North/ fielding area which could include some riding ( doesn’t have to but preferred as I’ve had horses my whole life ). My 24 year old horse recently passed so I moved up to fielding from Wellington to live with my partner.
