Reagan Equine, an equine veterinary practice in Wilmington, North Carolina, is looking for an experienced, horse-savvy Barn Assistant to join our hospital team full-time. You'll be the person who keeps our hospital barn running smoothly and our patients safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
This isn't an entry-level barn job. We need someone who can confidently handle and hold horses of all temperaments, including patients who are sick, recovering, or nervous, and who wants to work closely with a veterinary team.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Handle and hold horses for exams, treatments, and procedures
- Feed, water, and follow each patient's care instructions
- Clean stalls and keep the barn, aisles, and paddocks in good shape
- Turn out, bring in, and walk horses
- Keep an eye on patients and tell the vet team when something seems off
- Help with deliveries, supplies, and general upkeep
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
- Solid hands-on horse handling experience from a barn, farm, show stable, breeding operation, or vet clinic
- Calm, confident, and safe around difficult horses
- Reliable, and fine with physical work outdoors in any weather
- Able to follow directions closely and pay attention to detail
- Available for some weekends and holidays
NICE TO HAVE
- Past work in an equine hospital or vet practice
- Experience with stall rest, bandaging, or giving medication under a vet's direction
HOW TO APPLY Send a short note about your horse experience and a résumé if you have one to ginger@reaganequine.com. You can also text 910-228-7109.
