Finishing Touches by Stephanie

I needed a daycare for my pup so she can learn to socialize with other dogs and also give her some company during the week while I'm at work. While other daycares cut down their operating hours because of covid, this place opens early and closes later, and accommodates my work hours (8a-4p) perfectly with time to spare if I'm running late. Also added bonus, she does grooming while she's at daycare!nnThe owner Stephanie takes great pride in her place and I always feel very safe and secure leaving my fur baby there. I feel like I'm leaving my pup at a relative's house instead of a daycare. I love chatting with Stephanie and she's helped me with tips on training my pup. I was able to mold some of her undesirable behavior pretty quickly. My pup gets gets excited as soon as we turn the corner of the block to get to daycare. She's super tired after a day at Auntie Stephanie's place and is much more calm for the rest of the night when she gets home.nnStephanie did my pup's first groom and we were very happy with how she looks. I posted a before and after pic.

Outstanding Experiences with BOTH Grooming & Daycare services!! My pooch Roxy LOVES going to see Stephanie & Sonny and ALL her 4-legged friends!

I was recommended to Stephanie by my vet who told me that Stephanie was one of the few groomers to whom the dogs don’t mind going. It was the best recommendation that I have received for my one year old Coton! Not only did Stephanie do an excellent job grooming my puppy Posie, but we liked her so much that we started to bring Posie there 3 times per week for doggie daycare. It is a small facility but Stephanie and her colleague Sonny are so wonderful with the dogs. They are hands on and caring and also have helped tremendously with Posie’s training. I am so grateful to Stephanie for taking such good care of Posie and caring for her as if she were her own puppy!

The best place to bring your dog for grooming and daycare !

Where do I begin! I happen to live across the street but actually first interacted with Stephanie over the phone. A dog walker I had used was seen dragging my poor little frightful pup by a neighbor and immediately alerted me while at work. I'm an ICU RN and couldn't leave work. I was frantic. My mother (who is out of town) actually first reached out to Stephanie and was amazed at her professionalism and willingness to get my puppy in as soon as possible. Before I knew it, I had the application sent to me and I was talking to Stephanie on the phone. She instantly calmed me down and I realized I was at the right daycare. My puppy was extremely anxious (had worms and digestive issues when I first brought her home so her socialization was delayed in those first crucial months). After the first trial day, Stephanie gave me a very thorough evaluation of my pup and gave her a full 4 days to continue to evaluate and then a typed, even more thorough evaluation of what she will need coming up. Long story short, my now 7 month old puppy is one of the MOST playful pups at daycare and has even made some best friends!!! Stephanie has also started grooming her and has her on a schedule to desensitize her to the whole process and she is phenomenal at it. I don't know what I would have done without Stephanie, Sonny and Kevin. My schedule can be erratic and very long hours and I NEVER have to worry about my little girl. AMAZING doesn't even come close to how I would describe this team!! Thank you all!!!
