Katrina Walker
Katrina has always loved working with animals and fiber - so having a flock of natural colored sheep is a perfect match. She loves putting the "spoiled" in Spoiled Sheep. Her favorite way to de-stress at the end of the day is to go out into the pasture and talk to the sheep.
When not shepherding, she is an educator, designer, and author for the home sewing and craft industry.

Scott Walker
Scott is the head rancher at Rose Butte Ranch and shepherd for the Spoiled Sheep flock. He grows all of the hay for the sheep and keeps the pasture irrigation flowing. Scott is also the expert at hoof trimming! Whenever he is in the pasture he is usually being followed around by our lambs baaa'ing their version of "Daddy!!!" at him which he pretends to find annoying.
When not dealing with the many demands and repairs of ranch life or sitting on a tractor, he is in his office writing software. A true renaissance man!
Siena and Staff
Siena is one of our many talented friends who have pitched in over the years to help skirt fleeces and tag yarn. Producing Spoiled Sheep Yarn is a very labor intensive process that requires great attention to detail.
A big thank-you to Siena and all our friends who have helped us with the Spoiled Sheep over the years. It is definitely a team effort!
Livestock Guardian Dogs
Spoiled Sheep Yarn could not exist without our dedicated team of livestock guardian dogs. Our dog team works around the clock to ensure the sheep are kept safe from harm. The Spoiled Sheep love their dogs!
