Barney Rossetto

Chief Barketing Officer

Barney - Chief Barketing Officer (CBO), Age: 12 (84 in dog years, but who's counting?)

Barney is the wise, whiskered face of the office, known for his warm welcome, soulful eyes, and military-grade treat schedule. A stickler for routine, he patrols the halls with the precision of a furry Swiss watch, ensuring no treat is miss and no sandwich is left unguarded.

When not greeting clients with a polite tail wag or inspecting lunch bags for "contraband", Barney enjoys naps in sunbeams, passive-aggressively staring at clocks near snack time, and subtly judging your work-life balance.

Approach with treats and belly rubs. Petting is mandatory.

Meet Barney

George Wiita

George Wiita Stress Relief Coordinator

George is our beloved five-year-old golden doodle and unofficial Chief Cuteness Officer. He makes occasional visits to the insurance office to boost morale, accept belly rubs, and pretend he's helping with paperwork, when he is actually just eating it. Due to his strong opinions about slick floors (they're suspiciously shiny and probably out to get him), you might not catch him in the hallway - unless you hear the unmistakable sound of Scooby-Doo-style scrambling as he tries to gain traction. He means well, but physics isn't on his side.

Treats welcome. Floor wax, not so much...
