Find all objects with a given user in Meteor

I have a Meteor collection, let's call it Pets. Pets can have multiple owners, so I'm storing the owner ids as an array in the collection, eg.:

var pet_id = Pets.insert({'name': 'Spot', 'ownerIds': [Meteor.userId()]})

How do I find all the pets owned by a particular user?

I can find all pets where a user is the only owner easily:

Pets.find({'ownerIds':['rzfNpWfx688hkZY3X']}).fetch()

I also tried this, but it returns an empty array:

Pets.find({'ownerIds.$':'rzfNpWfx688hkZY3X'}).fetch()

Thanks!

Ah, the solution is easy - there's even an example in the Meteor docs:

Pets.find({'ownerIds':'rzfNpWfx688hkZY3X'}).fetch()
