get to know me…
I’m Stephanie. I’m fueled by coffee, dog snuggles, and the small joys of everyday life. I live in a small town with my husband and our four dogs. I enjoy reading, journaling, attempting to garden, and going to local vendor/craft fairs. I am currently writing my first book.
After losing my mom at a young age, I learned firsthand how deeply grief can shape you. In the middle of that loss, I found unexpected comfort and healing in the soft paws and loyal hearts of dogs. They taught me that love doesn’t need words, that presence can be powerful, and that joy can still exist—even alongside grief.

about the blog…
Between Coffee & Dog Hair is a cozy corner of the internet where I share stories, reflections, and lessons from life with dogs at my side and coffee always close by. Here, you’ll find gentle encouragement, small-town musings, and honest moments about healing, hope, and learning to live softly again…with a little chaos thrown in.
Whether you’re walking through grief, seeking comfort, or simply longing for slower days and warmer moments, you’re welcome here. Pull up a chair, stay awhile, and know you’re not alone—there’s room here for real life and wagging tails in the process of healing.
