HBC President Janice Rudd has owned Australian shepherds since 1993 and has cared for cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, birds, lizards, frogs, chickens, and fish. She is well versed in caring for elderly pets and administering medication, including insulin.

 

A graduate of Rice University and the University of Chicago Graduate School of Business, Janice left her career in oil & gas finance to open Scrub-A-Dub Dog Wash in 2002. The dog wash was named Houston's Ultimate Dog Wash by the Houston Chronicle and Houston's Best Dog Grooming Shop by CitySearch. She sold the dog wash in 2007, but her love of animals continued. She has volunteered for pet rescue and welfare groups. Janice served on the Houston BARC Foundation Board of Directors from 2016 to 2019.
