We are now fully booked for rabbits for the May half term and the summer holidays, but still have guinea pig spaces available
Welcome to Barnaby's Bunny Barn - where animal care meets passion, learning, and a whole lot of fluff!
We're proud to support the next generation of animal lovers and carers through hands-on work placements and experience opportunities. In 2026 we are pleased to be supporting:
Veterinary students on a week's placement looking to gain practical insights into small animal boarding
Year 10 students completing a week's volunteering to fulfill their School work experience week
Animal Care Students at Weston College, Cannington or City of Bristol College
Duke of Edinburgh Award students completing their skills section of the qualification
Year 12 students looking to provide evidence of animal work experience to enhance their personal statement applying to veterinary school
At the Bunny Barn, you'll be part of a warm, friendly environment where you’ll:
Learn about daily animal care, welfare, and enrichment
Develop confidence working with small animals
Build transferable skills such as responsibility, teamwork, and problem-solving
We believe in nurturing curiosity and providing a safe space for young people to explore careers in animal care. If you’re enthusiastic, caring, and eager to get stuck in, we’d love to hear from you!
