Experience with Horses

Outline your experience with horses here/the scope of your freelance services. If you’re looking for a non-equine or non- yard-based job please use this space to describe your experience skills/abilities and adapt the questions to suit your line of work.

I have more than 7 years of hands-on professional experience working with horses at Al Maghaweer Stables, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.

My experience includes day-to-day horse care and stable duties, including grooming, feeding, cleaning and maintaining stables, handling horses safely, preparing horses for daily activities and maintaining a clean and organised stable environment.

My experience in a professional stable environment has also taught me to work according to established routines and instructions while taking responsibility for the welfare and care of the horses.
