The Cavvy helps horse buyers and sellers keep the search organized. Browse horses for sale, explore photos, videos, and listing details, use detailed search filters, save favorites, and contact sellers when a horse looks like the right fit. Search alerts remember what you are looking for and can notify you when new matching horses are listed. Cavvy Connections helps you discover people and businesses throughout the horse community, including ranches, trainers, breeders, farriers, veterinary practices, boarding facilities, photographers, and more. Sellers and equine businesses can create a profile to introduce themselves, showcase their services, and share their available horses. Selling a horse? Create and manage listings, add photos from your camera or photo library, upload videos, and share listings with interested buyers. You can also pause listings, mark horses as sold, and relist them when needed. The iOS app is designed to work well on slow networks and lets you continue working on new listings without an internet connection, then publish when you are connected again. The Cavvy keeps the horse-shopping workflow simple: listings, saved horses, search alerts, seller contact tools, Cavvy Connections, and account management in one place.
