Why do dogs have groomers and horses have grooms?

Sorry, random question, but one that keeps circling my brain cell.

  very random question and i have no idea of the answer.... i suppose a horse 'groom' does a lot more than actually groom (as in brush etc.) the horse though! xx

And you could also ask - in this context why does a bride have a groom  the mind boggles

I used to be a groom, very difficult when when completing any form where you needed to state your job title  . And believe me you do more than just brush the horse

I was also a groom but don't have problems with the form filling. I just put myself down as a Husband.

Sorry, couldn't resist it. .

Why 

Because it's never one of the options and never seemed to fit in the with the categories. And it's not classed as agriculture.
