Our Story
Family-Owned. Quality-Driven. Passion-Led.
Welcome to Rocking Horse Ranch & Builders, where craftsmanship meets care, and every project—whether it’s a construction site or a horse arena—is handled with integrity, professionalism, and a personal touch.
We’re Sam & Jessie Freire, the proud owners of Rocking Horse Ranch & Builders, a family-owned construction and ranch business that started in 2016. Nestled in the heart of Central Florida, we’ve built our reputation on the foundation of ethical, honest, and professional work, both in the construction industry and on the ranch.
What started as a passion for building and a love for horses quickly grew into a thriving business that reflects who we are and what we value. From designing and constructing beautiful, functional spaces to nurturing a ranch that offers unforgettable horseback riding experiences, we pour our hearts into everything we do.
At Rocking Horse Ranch, we believe in creating spaces—not just in the homes we build, but in the relationships we foster with our clients and community. Whether you’re joining us for a scenic trail ride, learning to ride in our arena, or purchasing premium alfalfa for your herd, we treat every customer like family.
With over 18 years of experience teaching horseback riding, Jessie Freire brings unmatched knowledge and passion to Rocking Horse Ranch. She has worked in diverse settings, from youth camps to therapeutic riding organizations, helping riders of all ages and abilities find confidence in the saddle. Jessie holds a Bachelor’s in Outdoor Leadership and is a certified riding instructor through the Certified Horsemanship Association (CHA). In 2019, she completed the construction of her very own ranch and opened it up for riding lessons with full facilities. Jessie loves working with children, teaching them discipline, hard work, and how to have fun with horses in a safe, supportive environment.
