Stephanies responses were always super prompt, she even came and met us prior, (per our request) before the walk, so our anxious 130lb rescue, would get comfortable with her. Lets just say it was love at first tail wag, Stephanie was calm and super approachable and respectful, Our boy Brutus was instantly relaxed and bonded with her quickly. We left care instructions and stephanie went above and beyond, checking in with us , and reassuring us if any hiccups happened with our off island travel to reach out and let her know as I believe she would've jumped in to help us with Brutus for extended care if it came to that. Stephanie will be our go to gal for all future visits to Hatteras area; highly recommend!!

Stephanie was wonderful! She was very flexible when our schedule changed. Fiona was very happy when we returned home. It was like we never left her, which was our goal. Will definitely ask Stephanie to take care of Fiona next time we are in town.
