>> 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 Senior Radio Market Executive, she turned her energies and passion for animals into establishing Hounds To Horses Pet Services in 2003.
Janean joined Pet Sitters International (2003-2013), and has attended a Pet First Aid class held by the Escondido Humane Society. Janean was the youngest person (at that time) to be elected to the San Diego State Alumni Association, Board of Directors (1994-2000), and she has also served as Co-President of the Kappa Delta Sorority House Corporation at SDSU for several years until 2009, when her dad became ill.
In 2008, she was the first "Non-Pro" rider ever to be elected to the So CA Professional Horseshow Association (SCPHA) Board of Directors, helping to put on their annual Open Horse Show series. Additionally, as Co-President of Friends Of Eden Valley, she donated many hours to attending a variety of meeting with the goal of maintaining a rural environment in her community (ie: fighting irresponsible development & a toxic lithium-ion Battery Storage Facility). Janean meets regularly with other local Professional Pet Sitters for "yappy hour" to network and is totally dedicated to caring for animals as a full-time Professional Pet Sitter, since 2003.
>> Bill (Co-Owner) was raised on 80-acres in rural Montana. After retiring with 20 years from the U.S. Marine Corps at MCAS Miramar, he worked as a Project Manager for a local construction contractor, and then was the Stable Foreman at the 44-acre horse stable located at Miramar until it's closure. Next, Bill was a Maintenance Tech III with Liberty Military Housing at Camp Pendleton in Oceanside CA. Additionally he was the Maintenance Division at our ranch! In his spare time, Bill enjoys riding and showing our Quarter Horses at AQHA Breed and local Open Shows.
Hounds To Horse is not a huge corporation, a chain, or an Uber-type App, but rather a local home-based family business where we welcome your pets as family. We are grateful to each and every one of our clients who have allowed us the privilege of loving and caring for their pets. We hope you enjoy being able to travel knowing your "babies" are well cared for and having a PAWsome time hanging out with us in our home.
