Little Longears Miniature Donkey Rescue located on an expansive, new, 100-acre facility in New Oxford, PA is looking for talented and dedicated staff to work with our more than 150 donkeys, mules, and a few ponies.

A work/life balanice IS possible in this industry. We offer a five day work week, competitive hourly pay, paid time off, and a beautiful facility filled with incredibly sweet donkeys who want nothing from you except attention, and maybe the occasional treat :).

Experienced grooms/caretakers will be providing the daily care for the donkeys, ponies, and mules. Duties include general barn work, feeding, cleaning stalls, barns and paddocks, helping with vet, farrier and dentist, turn out, grooming and handling of donkeys

We don't expect anyone to necessarily have much, or any donkey experience, but we are looking for people with significant experience handling horses of all types. Many of these donkeys and mules can be challenging and this job is not for someone without significant experience. We will train and teach applicant the specifics of working with these donkeys and mules, but a thoughtful, patient, and confident person is a must.

If you are looking for a break from the intensity of a show barn, this might be a great change of pace for you. We are serious about taking exceptional care of all the residents at our rescue.

Salary for Grooms range from $20-25/hr depending on experience level.

We have full time opportunities. One weekend day will be required of all full time employees.
