Volunteers

Are you interested in doing miniature horse therapy but do not have your own horse or the time to train one? Do not worry! We are always looking for wonderful people to come and volunteer!

 If you are interested in volunteering your time, whether you are an experienced horse handler or not, we would like to welcome you to the team. We will teach you basic skills that will help you succeed.

   

 

 What do our Volunteers do?

  • Free training sessions to help you become familiar with our equipment and horses
  • Grooming, bathing, barn duties, walking horses on and off site
  • Preparing horses for visits on and off the farm
  • As your learning increases, we have visits to nursing homes, schools, Seasons Hospice visits, sentimental journeys, group home visits, fashion shows, and house visits
  • Training days where we walk horses on sidewalks through downtown Pine Island
