“As a lifelong equestrian, former competitive dressage rider, and equine behaviorist, I’m careful about who I trust with my horses — and Catherine is one of the best. She’s trimmed all of my horses for years, and the improvements in their comfort and biomechanics have been remarkable.
She helped my mare move from defensive to cooperative by supporting my use of positive reinforcement and pairing it with thoughtful, unhurried handling.
Her biomechanical insight is exceptional, and when needed, she’ll film so you can clearly see the real-time changes her work creates.
Her subtle adjustments add up to meaningful improvements, and she explains her decisions in a way that builds both confidence and understanding. Beyond her trimming skill, Catherine is an experienced rider, trainer, instructor, and farm owner — she relates to her human clients just as well as she reads her equine ones.
