17. Andrew B.
“I have known Andrew my entire life - we grew up next door to each other and he has always been an avid pet lover. I owe my passion for animals and caring for them entirely to him and the love that he shows to both humans and pets alike. As a child I was terrified of dogs and once his parents got him his own Springer Spaniel named Maverick to care for and train he was kind and patient enough to work with both myself and my inherent fear of dogs as well his newly trained puppy for us to slowly get acclimated with one another and overcome my fear; it didn’t take long working with him and Maverick for my fear to transform into love and passion for dogs. I have been a life long dog owner since - I owe a lot of pup snuggles and love to him and he will always be a life long friend because of this.”

“Kaitlyn is a great person who is wonderful with animals. She watched my parakeets for me while I was in college for a few years. I never once worried about them.”
