About
Our Owner

Stephanie White 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 she enjoys to this day. Now she has her own horse farm which she enjoys with her many critters.

Stephanie knew her passion was to have a career caring for 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 of her father, and they went to work designing a state-of-the-art facility which Stephanie named Harmony Pet Resort. Harmony Pet Resort opened in November of 2006. Stephanie’s goal has always been to give pets a wonderful place to vacation while their mom and dad 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!”
