His versus hers

Who's the biggest animal lover in your house?
Between my husband and me, I'd say I'm the bigger animal lover.
I used to let the cats sleep in bed with us and the dogs could roam around where ever they wanted (in the house, that is).
But that changed after a while. My husband like to credit himself with my putting the pets a notch or two lower.
I now have a hook-and-eye latch on our bedroom door so the cats can't get in. (That started, though, because they kept puking on the bed and I got sick of the mess. Now the mess is just elsewhere.)
But they still can tell when we start to wake up, because they're right outside the door meowing for breakfast. My daughter tells me they're saying "please and thank you."
And at night, the dogs go down to the basement. At least that way, they can't join the cats outside our door in the mornings.
They all still follow me around the house, upstairs and downstairs. My husband will come home from work to find me on the sofa surrounded by the cats.
He tends to shoo them all away, so they don't really follow him.
For the most part, I don't mind being in their company. Although I'm not about to remove the latch from the bedroom door!
How do you rank the pet lovers at your house?
(And do kids count in the rankings? Because at our house, the kids probably love them more than my husband and I do. But at the same time, they don't scoop litterboxes -- they should -- or take them to the vet. They dress up the pets and sometimes chase them and scream at them. That's probably not the best way to show your pet you love them.)
