Pat - no, we haven't expanded into the States.
As a matter of fact, we are putting it on indefinite hold in Calgary area, as there are just two of us - and you'd need four people, one of them an organized business/office manager - to pull off the work.
It was founded by a wonderful, creative enthusiastic person, and they still do some work in Vancouver - but there isn't a hard-headed business person to take it and make it more viable.
One small example - there are no pre-existing documents that the Calgary office can adapt for contracts that may come in, and there wasn't even any kind of disclaimer on the services. I created one and suggested to the founder that he look at it, and have a lawyer buddy go over it. He never did.
SO...nothing much to go on, and certainly no seed money at this point.
Here we WILL be doing a resume service for pet owners seeking housing, and I think that will be easier and viable. In time, it MAY grow to a point where P&A will become viable...but all the time I waste trying to get P&A up and running could have been spent helping pet owners get resumes with references for them and their pets.
