P.E.T.S. Team
Kyle - Owner
Kyle Peterson and wife Pam started P.E.T.S. LLC in order to provide a low cost transport option for animal rescue groups to get their dogs to new homes. As one of the founders, Kyle started out doing everything involved with the operations side of transporting dogs. Including answering the phone, picking up dogs, cleaning the crates and trailers, maintenanceing the trucks, walking dogs, and delivering the dogs to New England. At this stage Kyle spends most of his time managing the outstanding crew of men and women who make P.E.T.S. LLC so successful, as well as driving the transport to New England, and still answers the phone.
Kyle is the proud father of Savannah and Sydney and the pack leader for 12-15 dogs at home.
In his "spare time" Kyle is an avid reader, likes to fish, loves to cook, and spend time at home.

Grant
Grant is a \'jack of all trades\' as he helps us with just about everything before, during and after transports. He is great with the dogs and hopes to have one of his own in the future.
Helen
Transporting 100+ rescued animals a week generates quite a bit of paperwork. Helen helps Pam with copying the health certificates for each dog (USDA requires P.E.T.S. to keep copies of all HC's for one year), checking paperwork for each dog to ensure it meets all of P.E.T.S. transport requirements, helping with the transport sheets and a slew of other administrative stuff that needs to get done every week.
Howard
There is alot of equipment to clean and sanitize after a transport. Howard empties the trailers, cleans the trailers, cleans the crates, washes the water buckets, washes the trucks, re-stocks supplies, fixes broken crates....anything that needs to be done, Howard is on it!
His pets include Crazy Daisy the doxie and Scratchy the cat.
Joyce
Joyce is Pam\'s sister, Kyle\'s sister-in-law. She and her family have recently moved from WA to Japan as her husband is in the military. Because of the convenience of the internet, she is able to help with email, reservations and scheduling....all from the comfort of her home in Japan!
**Family has always been involved with P.E.T.S.....
Pam\'s Dad, Carl, was a driver for the transport back when P.E.T.S first started in early 2004. Unfortunately, he passed away suddenly in June 2004.
Kyle\'s brothers, Jon and Brian, who live in FL, have both been on numerous transports in the early years of the business.
Pam\'s uncle Dennis, from GA, has helped too.

She and her husband TJ and their 4 kids live in FL and have a dog named Sara that they adopted from TN, while visiting Pam and Kyle a few years ago.
