18. Zeiydah L.
About: Growing up with two dogs I have learned how to sufficiently care and love dogs, whether it is walking, feeding or even grooming I can do it all ! Im currently working part time, my schedule alternates which makes most available to provide pet care on my off-weeks.I work 3-11pm so morning walks work best for me. I have a quiet small home which is perfect for smaller dogs to stay out of trouble. There is a huge park at the end of my block which is perfect to meet and play with other dogs or just enjoy a nice walk.
19. Barbara D.
“Barbara is a wonderful person who takes such good care of our Stella. Barbara is happy to stay at our home overnights when we are away, making sure Stella has a companion in the luxury of her own home or stop in during the day if we are gone for a long period of time to take Stella for a walk and sit with her for awhile. Barbara is a trust worthy young lady who loves animals. I highly recommend Barbara to you and your family. She will take very good care of your furbabies.”
20. Emma N.
“Emma has been an animal lover all her life. She grew up in a house with three Chihuahuas and when she turned 21 she got her own cat. A year after that we found a kitten in the yard and he has now become Emma’s as well. Emma was a member of Barking Buddies 4-H club from the time She was five years old until she was 14. During that time, she learned how to groom, train, and show her dog in obedience, showmanship and agility. She was also a member of Painted Ponies 4-H club. Emma owned her own horse at the age of 11. She still rides when she can and has volunteered at our local horse rescue. During Covid she volunteered at Hudson Valley Animal Rescue and walked the rescue dogs. Emma has been asked to pet sit for friends of ours in the past. They know her background, and trust that she will give their animals the best of care. I hope you will consider bringing Emma into the River family, as I think that she would be a great asset. Sincerely, Alicia Noonan”
