Pup Pup and Away offers pet care with a behavioral edge! Dog Training-Daycare-Boarding My name is Stephanie, Certified Dog Trainer and Owner of Pup Pup & Away.
(45)

Boy, do I have a story for you! I always knew I wanted to work with animals, especially pets, but I thought it was going to be in the veterinary field. My first job was as a receptionist at a small animal hospital. I loved the small setting and even got to sit in on and watch a few surgeries. I began attending Texas A&M in 2007 with vet school as my goal. Well, did you know chemistry is hard!? Wit

h my GPA not being of vet school standard, I turned to a degree in Animal Behavior which opened my eyes to a whole new world of careers in the pet industry. I began working at a facility that offered boarding, daycare and veterinary services. I realized I had an eye for detail and an act for caring for other people's pets and fell in love with this new calling. Graduation in 2011 brought me back home to San Antonio. I worked at another daycare and boarding facility honing in and sharpening my pet hospitality skills. In September 2012, I moved to Houston with my long term boyfriend and began working at Peace Love & Dogs. PLD became my home for the next 4 years and taught me so much about myself as a person and as a professional. I started in the daycare department supervising groups of playing dogs like in previous jobs but this time learning and focusing on how behavior affects play. Peace Love & Dogs also held many group classes by Stephanie Bennett, CPDT-KSA and I got to sit in and observe. I feel in love with a new passion: TRAINING. With the help of Stephanie, my other boss, Anna, and lots of dog books I began teaching my own puppy classes in July 2013 and have not stopped training. I expanded my class resume to include Puppy I and II, Puppy Socialization and Adult Basic Obedience I and II. I also assisted in Nosework, Tricks, and CGC classes. I became a certified trainer in October 2014. The experiences I gained, clients I met and best friends I've made at PLD are priceless and irreplaceable but home was calling me back. In February 2017, we made the move back to San Antonio and I began business as Pup Pup & Away! I currently offer private in-home training lessons, daily dog walks, and daily as well as overnight pet sitting services. If you've got a pet, I'd love to meet them! If you've got a pet care need, I'm your girl!

Some dogs get excited when guests come over, and some are super fearful. If your dog is the latter, you need to check out my GREETING PROTOCOL. Using this method, I’ve been able to enter into clients homes, build trust with the dog, and work on training goals. I once even had a client that was shocked I was able to sit in her living room for 10 min after her dog chased the previous trainer out of the house the week before! Comment “say hi” and I’ll send you the step-by-step protocol #Dogtrainer #dogtrainingtips #caninebehaviorist #certified #sanantoniodogs #dog #trainingtips #gooddog #petcarewithabehavioraledge #puppupandaway #caninesidekick #positivereinforcement #trainwithoutpain #dogtraining #dogsofsatx #sanantonio #smallbusiness #doggoals #dogmomgoals

It’s World Food Safety Day. Which do you think is safer- dry kibble or raw diets?

Our Story

Pup Pup & Away was started in January 2016 by Stephanie Garza, CPDT-KA (Certified Professional Dog Trainer- Knowledge Assessed). Since then, we have serviced pet parents in their homes offering in-home pet sitting and daily dog walking. These services allow our clients to vacation or attend a full day’s work knowing their pets are happy and well taken care of in their own home.

Our clients also love our training expertise! We offer training services either in the client’s home, offering a specialized and personalized training program, or in group classes. Both services make sure the family is a part of the process, teaching them how to communicate and understand their canine sidekicks better. No matter what your training goals are, we can help!

We’d love to help you Harness Your Sidekick Superpowers!
