Author Lisa Marie

Lisa's the kind of person who has always measured life partly by the animals in it. Animals have been part of her everyday life for as long as she can remember. Her current household includes four dogs, four cats, and two horses, which means there is usually fur on something, an animal needing attention, and at least one pet quietly supervising whatever she's trying to do. She's part of the team behind PetsBlogs and writes from the perspective of someone who genuinely shares her home and daily life with animals. Not a veterinarian or behaviorist. Just someone who has paid close attention for a very long time. If you've ever rearranged your schedule, your furniture, or your entire life around a pet, you're probably her kind of people.
