Hounds To Horses, North County Pet Sitting Service

Hounds To Horses "officially" began in January 2003. Owners Janean and Bill Huston own a small ranch in the unincorporated west end of Escondido, an area known as Harmony Grove/Eden Valley. They share their home with 2 cats, 3 dogs, and 15 horses (it's an addiction!). Bill and Janean met at the stables where they previously boarded their horses. Both where raised with animals, each bringing 40+++ years of animal expertise to the business.

Our team at HOUNDS TO HORSES consists of reliable, loving, and experienced Pet Care Providers! Meet the team:

>>Janean (Owner) is a graduate from San Diego State University, and worked in sales & marketing most of her "corporate" life. As Janean departed from a career as a Radio Marketing Executive, she turned her energies to her passion for animals, founding Hounds To Horses in 2003. She attended a Pet First Aid class held at the Escondido Humane Society in January 2005. Janean recently was the Co-President of the House Corporation, which runs the Kappa Delta sorority house at SDSU, and in 2008 was the first "Non-Pro" Rider ever to be elected to the So CA Horseshow Association (SCPHA) Board of Directors. Additionally, she can often be found at a wide variety of meetings with the goal of maintaining a rural environment in her community.

>>Bill (Co-owner) was raised on 80-acres in Montana. After retiring with his 20-year from the U.S. Marine Corps at MCAS Miramar, he worked at a Project Manager for a local construction contractor and then was the Assistant Stable Manager at the 44-acre stable located at MCAS Miramar until it's recent closure. Now he pitches in to keep our family business on track in addition to working as a Repair Tech for 1-800-Appliance (Appliance Rescue), serving San Diego's North County. In his spare time, Bill shows our horses on the Quarter Horse and local Open Show circuits in Halter classes.

>>Tara (step daughter) has an extensive pet care background and shows Appaloosa horses at the World Show level. Additionally, she's a hair stylist at Studio 158 on Grand Avenue in downtown Escondido.

Our Pet Care Providers listed above are highly trusted, knowledgeable pet sitters that work under the direct supervision of the owner, Janean. Because they are hand picked personally for their love of animals, knowledge and experience in pet care, each Pet Care Provider offers the same high quality care that Hounds To Horses expects for our clients and their pets!
