About Me

My name is Heather Rodriguez, and I am the owner of Paws and Claws Boarding and Training. I am happily married to my wonderful husband and together we have two energetic young children who inspire me everyday and are the driving force behind everything I do.

I am a proud veteran of the United States Marine Corps, where I met my husband. In 2023, our family relocated from California to Texas. During our first year here, we quickly realized that Texas was the perfect place to put down roots and build our future.

I have always has a passion for dogs. At the age of 15, I purchased my first dog, and it didn't take long for me to fall in love with both the responsibility of caring for him and the training process. That experience sparked a lifelong appreciation for working with animals.

If it were possible, I would happily have hundreds of dogs running around my home. Since that isn't practical, I decided to pursue boarding, which allows me to meet and care for a wide variety of breeds. This experience has only strengthened my love for what I do and given me a greater appreciation for each dog's unique personality.
