The primary “pet sitting” person is <b>Linda Davies</b>, who is retired from UTMB in Galveston. Linda and her cat, Ruby, moved from the Texas Coast to New Braunfels 5 years ago to be near her grandchildren. </span></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 10pt;">Her partner is <b>Judy Carey</b>, who is retired from 40 years as an elementary school teacher. She and her husband, Bill, have resided in New Braunfels 19 years.</span><span style="font-size: 10pt;"> </span><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 10pt;">Both Linda and Judy are avid pet lovers, both having had pets (cats and dogs) all their lives. </span><span style="font-size: 10pt;"> </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: 10pt;">We offer reasonably priced pet sitting services to local pet owners that give both the families and the pets themselves peace of mind while the family is away. I have only boarded one animal in my life, a little female toy dachshund. We boarded her for two weeks; upon our return we were just sick to see how distraught she had been. Her hair had fallen out and she had barely eaten. This being a very reputable kennel, I believe she just did not think we were ever coming back and was grieving for us. Since then I have always kept my pets in their own environment when having to be away, with a trusted friend or relative checking in on them to feed, water, walk, play, give medicine, etc.</span><span style="font-size: 10pt;"> Linda and/or Judy can be that trusted friend to your pet.</span></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt 1in; text-indent: -1in;"><br />
