Meet the Owners: James & Alyssa Paine
With his love of animals and a keen interest in medicine, dentistry, and surgery, it makes complete sense that James would become a veterinarian. Pursuant to his dream of having his own Veterinary practice, Dr. James Paine received his Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) from the Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine in 2010, just after receiving his Masters of Business Administration from the University of Southern New Hampshire. To this day, he continues to further his education in medicine, surgery and behavior.

Calling Alyssa Klavans Paine an animal lover would be quite an understatement. After receiving her Masters Degree in Conservation Biology from Columbia University, she founded Applebrook Inn in 2003, with the goal of providing a social boarding environment for people's pets that provided both mental and physical stimulation. Currently, Alyssa contributes a great deal of her time to expanding programs at the Pet Resort with a mission of providing the best care possible to all the guests.
