Since 1983,Pro Walkhas been dedicated to providing horse owners with top-quality horse walkers. Our journey began with an order for 100 horse walkers for Tampa Bay Downs, which we delivered on time, fulfilling our very first contract. This success marked the birth of Pro Walk. Over the years, we've continued to innovate and improve our designs, ensuring that our products remain the best in the industry. Owner Gary Tate knows horses and understands both the needs of the horse and owner to ensure ProWalk USA offers the best horse walker for your dollars today!
In 1984, we introduced the predecessor of our current design, and we still stock parts for any walker we've built since then. As time passed, we made modifications that improved the strength and longevity of our walkers. When Gary Tate bought Pro Walk in 1999, we offered two models: a single-speed, single-direction 4-horse walker, and a 6-horse walker. Today, thanks to our experience working with dealers and customers, we've expanded our product line to include12 models of lead shank walkers and 5 models of free style walkers.
Why Choose ProWalk? There are other manufacturers out there, but we believe ProWalk is currently the oldest manufacturer of horse walkers in the United States. Our design, durability, dependable customer service and affordability combination— simply can’t be beat. Over the past 25 years, companies from Canada, Germany, and domestically have come and gone, leaving their customers without access to replacement parts. When investing in a horse walker, it’s important to think about the long-term support system that will be available. With Pro Walk, you’re joining a family that has been trusted for over 40 years, and we work every day to provide the best product in the industry. Is It True That ProWalk Comes With A Variable Speed Drive System?Yes and that was a game changer for everyone! In 2000, ProWalk began testing different auxiliary drive systems. By the end of that year, they chose the variable speed drive system that they still use today, complete with their proprietary upgrades. The dependability of these systems is important because it creates value for you, the end user.
AtProWalk, we understand that each horse owner has unique needs. That’s why we offer a wide range of customizable options. Our lead shank walkers come in 31', 35', and 43' diameters, allowing you to choose the right size for your operation. Our free style walkers also offer infinite speed settings, meaning you can adjust the speed to suit your horse’s individual exercise needs, up to a long trot. We avoid using programmable controllers because they can be too delicate and expensive to maintain in the environments where walkers operate.
Installing a new walker is a significant investment, and we’re here to support you every step of the way. Some customers prefer to install their Free Style walkers themselves, while others opt for our professional installation services. If you choose to install it yourself, we’re just a phone call away to answer any questions before or during the installation process.
ProWalk Horse Walkersare built to last. We’ve designed our walkers to withstand heavy use over many years. In fact, some of our customers have reported over 70,000 hours of use on their walkers. Compare that to a pickup truck with over 3,000,000 miles or heavy equipment that starts needing expensive service at around 7,000-8,000 hours. Our commitment to quality ensures that your Pro Walk horse walker will serve you and your horses for generations to come.
ProWalk Offers Quality and a Lifetime of Dependable Customer Service! Twenty years ago, we told customers they were buying a lifetime product. Now, we confidently say that you're buying a multi-generational product. Some of our verified free style and lead shank walkers have over 70,000 hours of use—that’s like a pickup truck with over 3,000,000 miles or a Caterpillar product that starts needing expensive service at 7,000-8,000 hours. That’s the quality you can expect from a Pro Walk horse walker. Note: With over 15,000 walkers shipped in the last 25 years, Pro Walk horse walkers are operating in 48 states, Canada, and Mexico. The replacement parts we furnish are minimal, which speaks volumes about the durability of our product. Plus, we’re available five days a week to answer any questions you may have.

The company's journey began with an order for 100 horse walkers for Tampa Bay Downs, delivered on time. Gary Tate bought Pro Walk in 1999 and the company is family owned and operated. Pro Walk believes it is the oldest manufacturer of horse walkers in the United States.
Two families of walkers: 12 models of lead shank walkers and 5 models of free style walkers. Lead shank walkers are the traditional motorized-center design where horses attach by their lead rope. Free Style walkers move each horse in its own little pen that circulates around the center — the horse is not tied to the walker.
Lead Shank walkers come in 31', 35', and 43' diameters. Pro Walk encourages a phone call before order so they can match the walker size to the operation — different users have different needs and the goal is making sure you don't spend more than necessary or get a walker that doesn't fit.
In 2000, Pro Walk tested different auxiliary drive systems and chose the variable-speed drive system they still use today, with their own proprietary upgrades. Per Pro Walk, infinite speed settings up to a long trot with both forward and reverse give the operator more useful control than a programmable controller — and programmable controllers can be too delicate and expensive to maintain in the environments where walkers operate.
Per Pro Walk: rugged extra-heavy-duty frame, head, and arms; quick-release safety cables on every arm; a fully enclosed metal-covered base that protects the machine and provides easy service access; only new parts in production; minimal maintenance — only monthly lubrication required. Variable speed walkers include a 20-second integrated delayed start and stop with ramp-up and ramp-down to avoid jerking.
Both walker families operate on standard 110V AC 20 amp hookup — no 220VAC required. The controller has a 55-foot cable that plugs into a connector in the walker base and a 6-foot power cord. The outlet cannot be GFI protected.
Yes — some customers install their Free Style walkers themselves; others have Pro Walk's crews handle it. Either way Pro Walk is on the phone before and during installation to answer questions. Pro Walk emphasizes that proper installation is key to long-term satisfaction.
Lead Shank walkers typically ship 10–14 days after order. Free Style walkers usually ship in 3–4 weeks. Lead times can vary with order volume — Pro Walk maintains a stable workforce because they believe quality matters more than speed.
