Meet our
Waiting Families

Dogs or cats?

"We love all kinds of animals. We have two small dogs, Charli & Rosie, and a cat, Riley, who have become our world. We are so happy to share our lives with them and take them along to vacation or just include them in every day activities so they feel how loved they are. When we are not with them, we are sure to provide them with the best care givers. Because we have such a deep love for animals, it is common that while vacationing, we often look local wild life or visit animal santuaries where we can see as many animals as possible." - Jacquelyn

I'm super competitive when it comes to...

"bike training. When riding outside on the road, I am happy to go at a leisurely pace. However, on my indoor bike trainer, even when I tell myself "this will just be a recovery ride," I go far too hard and am always racing for faster speeds." - Alex

My favorite place in the World is...

"Philadelphia. Whenever I’m coming back from being out of town and first see the city skyline, I feel an immediate sense of being home.
