Animal Care Technician II

GENTLE GIANTS DRAFT HORSE RESCUE

Gentle Giants Draft Horse Rescue is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit equine rescue dedicated to protecting draft horses from slaughter, abuse, and neglect. With nearly 200 horses in our care at any given time, we operate one of the largest draft horse rescue programs in the country. Every day, our team provides the intensive, specialized, and compassionate care these gentle giants need to heal physically and emotionally.

Our Animal Care Technicians play a vital part in that mission. Through attentive, compassionate, and skilled daily care, our team helps horses heal physically and emotionally. Whether supporting specialized medical needs, creating safe routines, or simply offering calm presence to a horse learning to trust again, your work becomes a direct part of their recovery.

What You’ll Do:

As an Animal Care Technician II, you’ll take a more independent role in the daily care of our rescued horses, helping ensure that feeding routines, barn operations, and basic treatments are completed accurately and consistently. Your work continues to center on the essential foundations of excellent horse care - feeding, watering, cleaning, and maintaining safe, orderly living spaces - but with added responsibility and confidence.

You’ll work both independently and alongside team members and volunteers to deliver daily feed across the farm, maintain clean and organized barns and paddocks, keep stalls fresh and comfortable, and ensure all horses have continuous access to fresh water and hay. With your experience, you’ll play a key role in observing the herd, recognizing early signs of concern, and communicating those observations clearly so the care team can respond quickly. You may also assist with or carry out approved comfort and special treatments as directed. Your work may not always be clinical, but it is essential. Your consistency, awareness, and skill directly support the health, safety, and well-being of horses who depend on us every day.

Daily Tasks:

Support daily feeding and seasonal needs for the herd
Assist with and carry out basic medical, comfort, and special treatments as trained
Ensure all horses have reliable access to fresh water and consistent forage
Maintain clean, safe barns, stalls, fields, and shelters
Observe horses daily and identify, document, and report changes in health or behavior
Help model and sustain a calm, safe environment for both horses and humans
Complete additional tasks that support the smooth operation of the farm and overall herd wellbeing

Required Experience, Skills, and Abilities:

Hands-on experience working with horses, ideally in a farm, rescue, or barn setting
Strong commitment to animal welfare and understanding of the needs of rescued horses
Ability to work independently while remaining a collaborative member of the care team
Comfort performing routine treatments such as leg care and medicated washes
Solid understanding of equine behavior and body language
Strong work ethic, reliability, and accountability in a care-driven environment
Effective time-management and prioritization skills in a fast-paced setting
Physical ability to lift 50+ lbs and perform demanding farm labor
Comfort working outdoors in all weather conditions
Strong attention to detail and confidence recognizing when a horse may need additional support
Those with prior experience in the veterinary world including small animals encouraged to apply.
