Pet Sitter in Conroe, Texas

I'm an
Individual
I grew up on a small farm where we had raised Registered Longhorn cattle, quarter horses and paint horses, we had dogs and cats. I trained and showed the longhorns and won many belt buckles and bronzes. I take pride in my job, and it is important to me to take good care of the animals. I earned a Bachelors Degree in Science, Criminal Justice and Psychology. When I returned to Texas I went to work for the Houston Police Department. After 10 years of that I decided a career change is in order. At this time I am unemployed, and would like to continue to work in something rewarding, and yet enjoyable, with less stress.

Joyce Rice grew up on a farm, working extensively with dogs, cats, horses and cattle since she was very young (approximately 5-6). She has participated in the birthing, imprinting, daily care and health crises of all of these. In addition, Joyce has been a dog owner herself for the last 12 years. She has demonstrated responsibility for their welfare on a daily basis. I have seen her playing with them in ways that both obviously enjoy. During her college years, Joyce took care of a neighbor's cat when the owner was out of town. Joyce also has the ability to sense each animal's personality. Thus not only is she gifted in knowing how to relate to each pet, she has the ability, because of her people skills, to assess the potential best match in adoption situations. She can educate the potential adoptors of the pet's personality traits and needs, as well as ways to relate to them and take care of them in the best possible manner. The common cliche of being an animal "whisperer", is very real in Joyce. She has a gift with all animals, including pets, intuitively knowing how to connect with each one. Your site used the concepts of trust, safety, high quality, excellent care and love. All of these characteristics are innate for Joyce. I highly recommend her for any position in which she is responsible for caring for pets. She will be an asset to any organization and/or company whose mission is related to the care of animals.

Joyce Rice is a dependable and dedicated worker. She is normally early for her job, and will stay late as needed. Her skills with animals are excellent. She has cared for them, clean up after them and bathed them as well. Although she is my daughter, I have seen her feed, train and show animals. It comes natural to her to take care of them. She used to show registered longhorns, and horses. She has had beagles, basset hounds, border collies, and blue heelers. Right now she owns corgies and she calls them her kids.
