History
Equistaff owner Mary K. Thomas moved to Ocala, Florida with the dream of becoming a barn manager. She quickly saw a need for all levels of barn staff and began utilizing her connections in the industry to match employers with employees. Her specialized equine staffing agency started on a shoestring budget in 1982 and is now a highly successful and diverse business; it was also the first equine staffing company in the United States. Equistaff.com was launched in June of 2000 and won a technological innovation award the same year and the company was the Marion County Equine Business of the Year in 2007! Most recently Mary launched the redesign of the Equistaff website to better serve the equine community. She also owns a general staffing agency, Fasttrack Staffing Inc. and a multifaceted career and life coaching company, MKT Talent.
