To thrive as a Horse Ranch Worker with Housing, you need hands-on experience with horse care, ranch maintenance, and basic animal husbandry, often supported by knowledge of farm safety and handling practices. Familiarity with farm equipment, feeding systems, and sometimes certifications in equine care or first aid are beneficial.

CredentialsExperience with horse care, possibly certifications in equine managementEquine training certifications or experience preferred
Work EnvironmentRanch setting, includes housing, outdoor work, general farm dutiesTraining arenas, stables, outdoor riding areas, focus on training activities
Employer & IndustryEquine farms, ranches, breeding facilitiesRiding schools, equine training centers, private owners

Horse Ranch With Housing involves managing a ranch environment with housing included, focusing on general horse care and farm duties. Horse Trainer specializes in training horses, often working in arenas or training facilities. While both roles require equine experience, the ranch role emphasizes farm management, whereas the trainer role centers on horse behavior and training skills.

What is a horse ranch with housing?

A Horse Ranch with Housing is a type of job or employment arrangement where workers, such as ranch hands, caretakers, or trainers, are provided with on-site living accommodations as part of their compensation. These positions typically involve caring for horses, maintaining ranch facilities, and performing various tasks related to animal welfare and ranch operations. Housing can range from shared bunkhouses to private apartments or homes, and is often included to attract workers to rural or remote locations. This arrangement allows employees to live close to their work and immerse themselves fully in ranch life.

What are the typical work hours and living arrangements like for employees on a horse ranch with provided housing?

Employees working on a horse ranch with provided housing can expect early mornings and physically demanding days, often starting before sunrise to care for the horses and maintain the property. Work schedules may include weekends and holidays, given the need for daily animal care. Housing is typically shared or private accommodations on or near the ranch, fostering a close-knit team environment. Living onsite allows for quick response to emergencies and can offer a unique rural lifestyle, but it also means adapting to communal living and respecting ranch rules. This setup is ideal for those who value hands-on work and enjoy being part of a small, supportive team.

Rehab Specialist - Private 3 Horse Ranch

Santa Fe, NM

Re-posted 6 days ago

Job description

About the Facility 
Situated on ~300 acres outside of the center of Santa Fe, NM, this beautiful private ranch is complete with a 10 stall barn, outdoor riding arena, and 8 miles worth of private trails for the resident horses and their humans to enjoy! Providing a forever home for the family's 3 horses, this ranch will soon grow to include cattle grazing on the pasture land and a small armada of donkeys to protect them (NOT under the equine staff's care!). Located less than 20min from the heart of Santa Fe, this property provides a unique blend of tranquil ranch living but convenient access to civilization!

Job Description 
We are looking for a compassionate, experienced equestrian to join this facility as the Rehab Specialist of the owner's 3 forever horses. Aged in their early teens, the horses here have been trained up under Parelli principals, and do not have any competition goals or rigorous demands. Though after a particularly trying 2025, the team is in need of someone well versed in performance therapies and rehab work to strengthen the team and better the lives of the horses on-site. This person will be responsible for collaborating closely with the existing team and veterinarians to devise a rehab and ongoing maintenance plan for the horses, along with maintaining the highest standards of care alongside the rest of the team. The owner is open to exploring any devices/therapeutic modalities that this individual may be experienced with, including PEMF, Laser, Cryotherapy, myofascial release, training with a Pessoa rig, and more. With a typical work schedule running 7:30am-4:00pm just 4 days per week, there are generally at least 2 individuals working in the barn at all times. The ideal individual will have an easygoing personality and will be willing to collaborate closely with the existing team, but be accustomed to providing meticulous care for the horses at all times. This person must be well experienced in western riding principals, and have a gentle, horses-first mentality. 
There is a team of maintenance professionals who handle all facility upkeep, fence fixing, etc - and the cattle and donkeys are not the responsibility of the equine care team beyond basic oversight in the event of an emergency. This is truly a position centered around providing the best possible care for the 3 horses on-site for the duration of their lifetimes!

This is NOT a leadership position. There will be no training or management of additional staff, and applicants MUST be willing to observe and adhere to the existing structures and quiet nature of the team here.

Schedule will be Sunday/Monday/Tuesday with the 4th day either Saturday or Wednesday, with a reasonable degree of flexibility depending on other staff. Ideally this position will begin Labor Day weekend.

Job Duties
- Feed horses - 2x/day for gain and 4x/day for hay
- Bring horses to/from turnout
- Stall Cleaning Daily
- Check horses' feet before and after turnout and working
- Groom and provide care for horses, including daily use of therapeutic technologies 
- Collaborate closely with Owner and Veterinary team to devise rehab and maintenance plan for the horses
- Exercise horses both in the arena and on the trails on schedule in collaboration with the Barn Manager, Trainer and Owner ~1hr per ride, 2 horses per day
- Monitor for any signs of illness, injury, or various other equine ailments - and treat accordingly

*Ability to perform night check duties for additional income is possible!

Job Requirements 
- Minimum 5 years professional working experience in an established equestrian program
- Minimum 2 years rehab experience in an established program
- Minimum 8 years riding experience, preferably with Western riding styles 
        *Familiarity with Parelli training methods is preferred but not required
- Must be comfortable signing a 1 year commitment in this role
- Must be capable of driving a 3 horse gooseneck trailer in event of emergency
- Must be willing to follow detailed care instructions and uphold owner's standards of horsecare at all times
- Must be able to bandage and provide basic first aide for horses
- Easygoing, collaborative teamwork attitude
- Willing to do all aspects of horse care 
- Possess a strong attention to detail and high care standards for horses
- Must be a team player and willing to modify schedule as needed to cover vacations/sick days/etc
*Bonus if familiar with rehab modalities - i.e. massage, laser, PEMF, theraplate, etc
*Bonus is comfortable and able to give IV/IM injections

Benefits
- $65/hr with an average 35hour work week for an expected base comp totaling around $115,000
- 50% employer paid health insurance
- Relocation Stipend Available - amount depending on individual scenario
- 4 day work week 
- 1hr paid lunch daily
- Ability to make additional income with night check responsibilities

Housing
Applicants must be willing to source their own housing within 45min of the ranch
On average, a newly built/high quality rental can be found for about $1000/mo in the local area - but prices can be as low as $800/mo. A quality and reliable vehicle is required for this opportunity
