Professional Freelance Equestrian Services
Grooming is a very varied and extremely important part of horse care and wellbeing. An equine groom may be called upon for a number of reasons. This can include anything from holiday cover when the horse owner is away and they need someone to look after the wellbeing and care for their horse, right through to supporting a competitive rider during a competition. Grooms also hold horses for treatment such as the farrier or vet, and assist with any rider tasks, like warming up and cooling down the horse for the rider.
At all times the grooms responsibility is the care, wellbeing and preparation of the horse leaving the horse owner and rider to do what they need to do.

These are just some of the considerations an experienced groom takes care of during a competition, helping the rider maintain their own composure and that of the horse.
