From the documents I thought Vilja automatically mount/dismounts when I do.
But she only mounts her horse if it is already present, she will not summon it unless I specifically ask her to; otherwise I, on horseback, look back to see her trotting along on foot behind me. Is this normal?
Dismounting has become more problematic, only about half the time will she dismount and follow on foot. The rest of the time she will either continue following on horseback (so I must turn around and click on her horse to get her to dismount ...not a big issue unless combat is imminent) or, quite perplexing, she will dismount then immediately mount my horse and continue following ...she will even hop a fence, run around a building, or push her horse out of the way to get to my horse. If I interrupt her before she gets on my horse, it's a normal dialog box (she's obviously still in follow mode since there is no "let's go" option), and when I close it she continues her efforts to get on my horse. Clicking on my horse then, rather than Vilja dismounting, gets me a dialog box with her, where I select "Get off the horse" (given that there is that option, is this a known "bug"?).
Oddly, and I cannot state there is a definite connection here, it seems every time I must get Vilja off my horse, when we return her horse is still there and mine has disappeared.

After fast travel to Red Rose last night my horse stumbled around like he was hobbled; I looked down and saw: Third person view disclosed: I couldn't dismount since hitting the spacebar opened dialog with Vilja (which produced oddly flashing graphics); saving and reloading placed us both standing beside my horse and the game proceeded normally. Note Vilja's horse in the background; we left Skingrad on our respective horses but arrived both on my horse.

Don't know if this is related, but took this shot at Cheydinhall much earlier in the game (a pushmi-pullyu in Cyrodiil?)

This time we materialized almost facing each other, I watched as Vilja dismounted her horse, ran over and mounted my horse ... while I'm still sitting there! And our legs are not in "riding position", it's like we are standing in the horse.

Just thought I should post some closure to this weirdness. It apparently was caused by the "Horse Calling" mod, which adds a spell to summon your horse; I replaced that with a mod giving you a ring to summon your horse and haven't experienced these issues since.
