Nine Points Equine Transportation

How It All Began:

Mark Wisecarver began riding when he was four years old and has had a passion for horses ever since. After retiring from the military, Mark and Michelle bought a small horse farm in Northern Virginia where their two kids started riding at the ages of three and five years old. After 13 years of driving to lessons, clinics, and horse shows - Mark decided he wanted to be a part of the industry as a full-time career and fill a critical service to reduce the environmental stress on horses during transit.

Mark’s focus is on quality of service NOT quantity of horses hauled. His 24 years of military service has taught discipline, patience and attention to detail that translates into taking care of horses, clients, equipment, as well as staying on schedule. Mark’s goal is to focus on one client at a time to ensure their horses have the best transport experience possible.
