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 been working with horses now for 14 years with a wide range of knowledge, I’ve backed and trained horses in both in English and Western styles. I’ve done some basic veterinary work (injecting, spotting lameness, colic, bandaging and wound care) I’ve participated with birthing as well due to working on a warm blood stud farm. Officially been coaching now 2 years (will be 3 years in August 2026) I have my own competition team who ride up to 1m and my main goal when it comes to coaching is teaching my riders to love what they are doing, to ride with confidence and compassion. I have lots of competition experience in dressage, show jumping and showing. I’ve done a little bit of western pleasure and reining competitions as well. I can ride easily in both English and Western styles. I’ve helped and worked in stable management positions in every job I’ve been in even while only being employed as a coach, I keep up with all my horses care/ farrier and vet, feed and exercise.Currently I’m studying a stable management course online to add more knowledge.
Key Skills
What are you particularly good at? For example: working alone, working with others, clipping, plaiting, turning out for shows, handling stallions, handling/riding young horses, non-equine skills etc
I’m happy and confident to work alone, working with a team is easy for me as well as I’ve done both, but I would prefer to work alone.I’ve done many showing shows in which I’ve done my own turnout and have been hired previously to turnout. (I will need to practice my plaits again as I haven’t needed to for awhile but my turnout has never failed and I pride myself in it) I can make on the spot decisions especially in stressful situations and keep my calm. I’ve handled stallions and youngsters plenty so I’m very confident on the ground with them. I have studied a lot in horsemanship following Monty Roberts and follow his guidance when I work with all horse even when they get “difficult”. Horsemanship is one of my main specialties and I really enjoy it as it only benefits the horse as well as the rider.
Strengths and Weaknesses
• What do you most enjoy about working with horses?
Honestly horses are my life and being with them always brings me a sense of calm and joy. They stunning animals and the connection you can make with them is truly special. I love most when working with “difficult” horses and overtime seeing how they change for the good.
• Is there anything you’d like to improve?
I love learning new things so anything new a job can teach me I’ll happily accept.
• Why should employers consider you above any other job seeker?
My passion runs deep and I put my everything into the job I do. I always put in the necessary effort and work into whatever I do with no complaints. Your horses will always be first on my priority list with love.
