Meet our expert staff 
David - Founder
David has been involved with animals for most of his life. Beginning with summers at his Great Grandparent's farm in upstate New York, to his founding of Four Paws Pet Ranch, animals have always been a way of life. A true animal lover at heart, David grew up with dogs, cats, birds, and fish, among other critters. After 20 years in hi-tech David was looking for a way to get "back to nature", and made the decision to follow his passion and start a “Home away from home” for pets needing a place to stay while their owners are away.
His focus now is to provide excellent care for animals staying at both Four Paws Pet Ranch facilities in addition to overseeing Countryside Rescue a non-profit animal rescue and adoption center.

Ernesto - Manager
A familiar face for over 6 years. Ernesto is key in keeping the
