Professional Service Dog Trainer
Pet care experience
Hi there! I started my career as a professional dog walker/manager for a luxury pet care company in NYC, and am now a professional Service Dog trainer for a non-profit in San Diego. I am pet CPR/First Aid certified, and have experience with a wide range of breeds, sizes, health ailments, and temperaments. Safety is my #1 priority! I received my Associate of Science degree in Assistance Dog Education in 2020 and have a 100% positive reinforcement training/handling methodology. I’m an experienced pet owner and devoted animal lover. I am a dog mom to a wonderful 7 year old Border Collie mix named Marshall, who loves other dogs and making friends. Our hobbies include daily walks/hikes, and he loves to play with my string of current service dogs in training. From one dog parent to another, I promise your dog will experience endless love and attention while in my care.
Reviews
Kaitlyn is great with our puppy, Rex! Always takes note and let’s ya know if she sees anything we should know about, writes very cute and thorough report cards, and always sends a picture. Recommend!
Kaitlyn was great! Lots of pics and very detailed info about the walk. I would certainly book her again.
Luna had a very nice weekend with Kaitlyn! Thank you!
Courage had a blast. I think hes a little sad that he had to go. I liked the fact that i was updates and pics daily. I so wish they were not leaving but completely understand. Thank you so much for taking care of our Courage
