Welcome to
Elite Equine Care

Hi, I’m Emma, founder
of Elite Equine Care

As a qualified professional of over 30 plus years in the equestrian field, rehabilitation and veterinary sector, I have gained exceptional knowledge across multiple disciplines, including a 12 year tenure in the veterinary field, 8 of which were spent as Practice Manager at an Equine Clinic and two small animal practices.

I founded Elite Equine Care in 2022 and offer bespoke equine care packages, house, yard, small holding sitting services to private, commercial and VIP clients. My professional and confidential services include all aspects of equine husbandry, grooming, stable/veterinary care, exercise management, rehabilitation and liaison with all paraprofessionals. I pride myself on being able to tailor individual needs and requirements for my clients, whether that be a one-off visit, sickness/holiday cover or a more regular routine.

I am proud to work in the equestrian industry and am a Registered Member & Certified Freelancer of the British Grooms Association (BGA). I hold a variety of professional insurances covering all aspects of my service offerings. I regularly participate in industry press and social media and I am a panel expert for Dr David Marlin’s Animalweb, which is a position I am particularly passionate about.

Equine Grooming

Professional Grooming & Horse Husbandry

With over 30-plus years of qualified experience, I offer unique and exceptionally high standards of professional grooming and horse husbandry. In 2023 I was humbled to have been awarded the title “Groom of the Year” from the Equestrian Business Awards, after being nominated by my clients, and judged by industry peers.

House sitting & holiday packages

I offer house sitting and holiday packages that are specifically tailored to you. Allowing you to go away, knowing that your beloved horses and animals can remain at home in their normal routine and environment. These packages are available as emergency cover, or from a night to a couple of weeks or more.

I offer one off and emergency cover as well as on-going regular daily/weekly/monthly packages. I also offer assistance with veterinary visits, bandage/dressing changes and treatments, farrier, BAEDT & registered equine dental technician visits, rehabilitation and physiotherapy appointments if you are unable to attend. I also offer a support package for euthanasia if you would like help with any part of this process.

Events

I have been fortunate enough to attend a number of regional and global equestrian events, offering my experience in stable and yard management, Forge Manager and overseeing Cooling and Thermoregulation as required.

My Values & Beliefs

I relish the challenges and variety that come with my international competition work, but equally passionate about my day to day freelance groom work too. I am proud to still be working hands on in the equestrian industry and having the British Grooms Association as my professional body is essential in this day and age. I see my role as a groom to support my clients and other fellow grooms, to help educate, mentor, encourage and inspire. Above all else I want to be a leading light in equine welfare and ensure the horse’s best interest is at the heart of everything I do.
