What riders say about San Juan Capistrano stables
Rancho Sierra Vista Equestrian Center
Trainer, Doug Porcello, is very good at what he does with horses. Very kind to them yet effective. Reining performance horses are his specialty however redirecting negative behaviors in horses is another talent of Doug's. I recommend him for multiple Equestrian training services as well as horse hauling arrangements.
San Juan Capistrano Equestrian Center
After calling several local stables looking for a last minute birthday present for my neighbor, the only one that would make herself available and tackle such a could be risky task, was Joan of Sycamore stables who turned a senior woman's dream into a reality!
LOVE this team. My daughter’s been riding for a couple of months and has enjoyed every moment of it. Miss Sarah and Kayla are both energetic and welcoming, they truly care about the kids. Not to mention the incredibly accommodating schedules, which make things so much easier.
