Stephanie White-Roth- Owner/Operator

Stephanie grew up on thirty acres here at Lake Oconee. Born with a love for animals she used the “farm” to her advantage. She had dogs and cats. She raised chickens and sold eggs to make spending money. She even had a goat and some calves. At age 11 she showed her first horse, a Tennessee Walking Horse named Royal Flirt, which is a hobby that continues to this day. Now she has her own horse farm which she enjoys with her husband Patrick and her many critters.

She knew her passion was to have a career being involved with the care of animals before she ever graduated from high school. Though her father and mother had their doubts, Stephanie was constantly talking about a future in the “doggy daycare” business. She was determined to prove to them that this was what she was born to do after college. After high school she headed off to college at Wingate University on a softball scholarship with her sights set on a degree, a successful softball career with her team, and then coming back to Lake Oconee and fulfilling her dreams of working with pets. In between studies and games she and her father traveled the world looking at Pet Resorts. Stephanie made a believer out her father and they went to work designing a state of the art facility which Steph named Harmony Pet Resort. Harmony Pet Resort opened in November of 2006. Stephanie’s goal was to have a place that allowed pets to vacation while their mother and father were on vacation too! Her recipe for a successful resort is simple: “Pets who have a safe and loving home away from home will make for happy pets and happy parents!”

Sabrina Rankin
Senior Resort Concierge

Sabrina came to Harmony Pet Resort from a child care facility in late 2007. Loved by all of our customers and clients Sabrina has become a familiar face both at our front desk as well as in the back caring for our critters. She may also be seen in the grooming room primping up a pooch in need of a “cut and color.” She has multiple hobbies but her main joy is watching pups come into the Pet Resort with tails wagging and hugging them goodbye on their way home. Away from the resort she enjoys baking, and she is really good! At home she and her husband breed and raise puppies!

Jessica Harper

The resort was very lucky to have Jess join our team. Jess came with an eagerness to show her love for our clients. She may be found out in the play yard leading a group play time or cuddling with our kitty boarders in “Kitty City.” We couldn’t ask for someone who understands how to love and care for pets any better. Away from work she loves her family, friends and her new Shitzu Puppy!
