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

Do I have kids? How do they feel about a sibling?

"We have a 2 year old daughter, and whenever we ask her about a sibling her response is always "Want baby!"" - Steven

My neighborhood is a good place to raise a family because…

"it's quiet but close to parks, schools, and a city. We're also really close to a lot of family and our kids will grow up spending lots of time with cousins!" - Mike

I would never...

"intentionally hurt someone." - Audrey

Favorite season and why?

"I love winter. Things slow down and we can make awesome memories as a family in the snow. Also all the snow birds leave town and go south for the winter." - Duncan

My favorite place in the World is...

"home. I've traveled a lot around the world but my favorite thing is to come back home at the end of each trip and enjoy reconnecting with the people and places who help make me who I am at heart. My family is there excited to hear about my adventures but then even more delighted to share a meal and enjoy the beauty of the valley where we live." - Monique

Favorite season and why?

"my favorite season is fall, because the changes of colors and is the most romantic season of the year" - Manuel Rodriguez

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

"Board games!" - Alyssa

If you had to pick a famous person to play you in a movie, who would it be?

"I'd have to go with Emma Stone. I think she's so talented and admire the versatility that she brings to her roles -- she can be funny, serious, and everything in between." - Sam
