About Us
Family owned and operated in the US.
EZwhelp began as a side business on eBay in the late 1990's, run out of a garage in Florida – without air-conditioning. The original owners (our aunt and uncle) spent many years working a labor of love, always striving for innovation, excellence, and honesty. Their labor has ended, and they’re currently enjoying retirement with all the adventure that can bring.
This new chapter of their lives meant a new chapter for ours as well. The transition from managing a carpet cleaning business to business ownership in 2018 was both exhilarating and scary for us. With 4 children under the age of 8 at the time, there was a lot riding on our shoulders to succeed. Travis went from an office job with steady hours and Christine went from stay-at-home mom to both of us working overtime with 4 kids running around us needing our support as well. We welcomed the opportunity to work side by side with each other. It’s important to us to teach our kids the value of hard work and the pride and responsibility that comes from earning their own money.
By 2020, we were being pushed to our limits. It was time to welcome more family to share the load. In April 2020, our brother-in-law, Jordan, along with his wife, one month old baby, and dog moved down the east coast to Atlanta. We’re so grateful to have Jordan and his family close. He is a huge asset to our team, and they enrich our lives.
Among the many changes that Covid brought to the world, it brought an increase of dog ownership. As a result, our business grew and by 2021, we were in need of more help. Travis’ brother, Tyler, joined the team and brought with him more experience. Moving from the west to the east coast with his wife, four kids, and a Great Dane was an adventure, and we’re so glad to have them closer and to get to work together. Tyler's wife, Jamie, joined the team in 2022 as our new customer service manager. If you ever call in, you will see just how wonderful and kind she is, and we appreciate all your kindness and patience in return.
The kids from our families get involved too during school breaks. We use it as an opportunity to teach them life skills and gain some experience in the workspace. So, if you find that the saran-wrapping of your rods or the taping of your boxes looks like it was done by an eight-year-old, it probably was! Thank you for your patience with cosmetic defects such as these and supporting us in teaching our kids about work.
We recognize the tremendous blessings that have allowed this opportunity to become a reality for our families (three families with a combined TEN, soon to be ELEVEN children!) We are grateful to all those who helped make this possible and for all the experiences which we have had in our lives that have prepared us for this change. We are indebted to the previous owners for the hard work they put into EZwhelp, recognizing that we stand on their shoulders and wouldn’t be here without them.
And to you, dear customer, we are grateful to you! We certainly wouldn’t be here without you either and we hope to continue to serve your needs as it pertains to whelping and puppy training.
