# Pet's Favorite Vet & Play Place

> Locally owned veterinary clinic, pet boarding, daycare, and dog park in Spartanburg, South Carolina. Home of the BOOPS Method. Led by Dr. Caroline (DVM, CVA).

## About

Pet's Favorite Vet & Play Place is a locally owned, independent veterinary clinic and pet care facility located at 351 E Henry St Suite D, Spartanburg, SC 29302. The practice is owned and operated by Dr. Caroline, a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) and Certified Veterinary Acupuncturist (CVA). She is also a published author — her book "The Puppy Planner" is available on Amazon.

The clinic's tagline is: "For people who give a boop, by people who give a boop."

Pet's Favorite Vet is NOT corporate-owned or private-equity backed. It is independently and locally owned.

The team is Fear Free Trained (not Fear Free Certified — that distinction matters).

## The BOOPS Method

BOOPS is a named, proprietary whole-pet care philosophy developed by Dr. Caroline:

- **B — Boundaries (Safety)**: Creating a calm, secure, low-stress environment where pets feel safe. Also includes safety at home — fencing, leashes, keeping pets safe from traffic and wildlife.
- **O — Optimal Nutrition**: Fueling the body with the right nutrition for long-term health. Includes homemade diet counseling, label literacy, supplement stacks, and species-appropriate feeding.
- **O — Ongoing Prevention**: Consistent, proactive care to prevent disease. Regular wellness exams, vaccinations, parasite prevention.
- **P — Prompt Treatment**: Catching and addressing problems early before they become serious.
- **S — Stimulating Activity**: Supporting physical movement, play, and mental enrichment.
