Equestrian jobs for a 13 year old?
My mom said that if I can earn a LOT of money I can get a horse. I already do chores for my lease. I need something else to do for money. I do barn work at my barn and help out with their camps but they give me gift certificates to their tack shop. I babysit occasionally and do a few odd jobs for my neighbors but I don't get very much. Do you have any ideas for jobs I can do that involve horses. I can walk trot and canter and I know my leads and diagonals. I can also jump a little but I'm still learning. I live in PA. Thanks!
Jeez why is everyone hiding perfectly good answers.
Have you thought about doing other kinds of chores around your house and neighborhood for pocket money besides babysitting, sweetie? One of the ones I can think of right off the top of my head is to offer your services as a dog walker or pet sitter. With it being as hot as it is right now, I'm sure there must be people in your area who will gladly pay you a little for walking their dogs regularly so they don't have to be out in the heat themselves. Right along with that is house sitting, which is a really easy way to make a LOT of money. Most homeowners are only too glad to have someone responsible around who can keep an eye on things while they're away on vacation or out of town for other reasons. House sitting involves doing things like watering house plants, feeding fish or other indoor pets, walking dogs and feeding them, bringing in the mail and papers every day, turning lights on and off at night to make the house look occupied and prevent vandalism and theft, and possibly, turning on an automatic sprinkler system to water the lawn from time to time. None of these things are hard to do, and they are certainly well within the reach of someone your age. You should make a point of asking around so you can find out who's going away on vacation in the next month or so, and let them know that you are available as a house sitter. Check with the other girls at the barn where you take your lessons, too- they may be getting ready to go out of town with their parents, and I am sure that at least someone would be happy to have you housesit while they are gone. And don't limit yourself just to people going on vacation, either. Anybody who is going to be away for more than one night ( such as for a weekend) is a candidate for a house sitting job.
Now I know that neither of these two jobs I menitioned involves horses, but then again, most of what you will do to earn money probably won't relate to them either. Being a house sitter is a wonderful way to show your mom how responsible you are. As far as horse jobs go, about the only thing you can do at your age is going to be mucking stalls- and there are strict limits on how much of that you can do. Most barns require that people be at least 18 before they get hired, and I would imagine yours is no exception. But that shouldn't stop you.You can offer to clean tack for people, do horse laundry, roll bandages, clean out the trailer or van before and after shows, and so forth. Another thing you can do is learn how to braid manes and tails, and offer your services as a braider. There are LOTS of people in the show world who will pay big money for neatly done, professional looking braid jobs, so this is a skill that is well worth the time and trouble. I actually knew someone once who put himself through college and even vet school by working as a professional braider and groomer at shows, so I know it can be done. It would also be worthwhile for you to learn the intracacies of show grooming and clipping, because that too is another way you can earn money. Still other ways you can earn money for a horse are to mow lawns ( your own and also those of your neighbors) wash windows, wash cars ( that's another very important, practical skill which every kid your age needs to learn, especially since the day when you will have your OWN vehicle is not all that far off) and even house cleaning. In short, there are dozens of ways to make extra money. You just need to use your imagination and think outside the box a little bit. Do you know how to keyboard and type? Then see if you can offer your services as a typist to your classmates this fall. Almost everyone needs help typing up things like term papers and book reports from time to time, and there are always those who will pay for the service.. Are you good at reading? Then ask if you can help someone who is having problems. Parents often prefer to pay someone like you instead of having to pay a professional tutor because it is generally cheaper. Are you interested in equine medicine? Then offer to hold horses at your barn for the vet and the farrier when they come.
Good luck- I hope I've given you some ideas and food for thought. You can earn the money you need, but it will take time.
Edit: Thanks, Dunfilly. And to the two idiots who gave me TD's, weren't you ever a teenager? I can understand this youngster's wish to get a horse- I was there myself at her age. She's a little unusual in that she's actually willing to WORK for a horse, instead of expecting her parents to do everything for her the way most kids that age do. I applaud her, because she's more mature than most girls her age.
