Katie Clark is a San Diego native, SDSU alumni, and life-long animal lover with over 20 years of experience with dogs.
She started her first dog-walking business in her La Mesa neighborhood at 8 years old,
While earning her psychology degree at San Diego State ten years later, she resumed walking dogs, but this time for a dog training business in La Jolla. She was recognized as having a knack for quickly gaining the trust of the more anxious & fearful dogs. This sparked a passion for learning more about dog behavior and the human influence - ultimately leading her to become a certified professional dog trainer.
With over 1000 hours of hands-on training experience, Katie is comfortable with a variety of breeds, temperaments, and client goals.
She applies her own experience as a busy mother and business owner to help her clients set attainable and realistic goals for their dog.
MEET YOUR TRAINER.
Kelsilynn has been surrounded by dogs her whole life and when it came time to get her first job at 16 years old, she had no trouble deciding to start at her local dog daycare. When she moved to San Diego a few years later, that passion for dogs moved with her. For around five years she worked with the best San Diego has to offer for dog daycare before deciding to expand her dog knowledge into the training world.
She is also the proud manager of a multi pet household: including three cats named Aphrodite, Emily and Luna; and two dogs. A Dogo Argentino mix named Hesita and a Corgi named Bucket.
Kelsilynn is available for dog-only lessons, training maintenance walks, petsitting, and assists Katie with day trains.
