Our Story

Tack It Up Boutique was founded in July 2023 by owner Kim Samitore, who recognized the need to keep a quality tack and saddle shop in Southern Oregon after the region’s last remaining store closed. Determined not to let the local horse community go without a trusted source for new and used saddles, tack, and essential services, Kim opened Tack It Up Boutique to continue the tradition of a locally owned and operated hub for riders and horse owners.

In the summer of 2025, Kim welcomed David Rogers to the team to assist with daily operations and customer service. With shared backgrounds in horse training, care, and rider support, Kim and David make a natural partnership. Together, they bring over 40 years of hands-on experience across multiple disciplines, specialties, and equine education programs.

Their combined expertise ensures that every customer receives personalized, knowledgeable service—from saddle fitting and tack repair to finding the right gear and guidance for you and your horse. At Tack It Up Boutique, it’s not just about products—it’s about community, craftsmanship, and care for the equestrian lifestyle.
