About Us:
Lisa VanHorn was born and raised in Belvidere New Jersey. Lisa has always had a love for all animals ever since childhood. She raised three children, Timmy, Jess, and Sarah and worked hard at several jobs, including managing kennels and horse stables.
In 2003 Lisa began building stalls and fixing barns on an old dairy farm in preparation of opening her own horse boarding and training facility. In 2005 Riverview Ranch was in full operation. Working with the horses brought Lisa much joy and the barn was her "Happy Place." You would always find Lisa around the barns or in a pasture, usually with one or two of her trusty, canine sidekicks.
In July 2022 Lisa lost her best friend - her Mother. The companionship of Lisa's pets brought her some comfort but she needed to find a way to take her mind off of her loss. Her love of all animals and dedication to their well-being motivated Lisa to start Riverview Rescue, in honor of her Mother. Helping animals keeps Lisa focused while working through the loss of her Mom.
Lisa has many Angels looking down with love and admiration, smiling and proud of the work she does. Riverview Rescue strives to find safe homes for any abandoned, neglected, or unwanted animals.
