Welcome to Peak K9
Our story
Our Mission Is To Create a Partnership Between Dogs and Owners
Peak K9 was founded in 2023 by Kaitlin and Andrew. After moving to Calgary they noticed a desperate need for functional dog training. They witnessed dog owners struggling with reactivity, leash pulling, lack of recall, and other common issues. Thats when they knew they had to lend a helping hand. Peak k9 cares deeply for your furry loved ones and specializes in off-leash training. Letting your dog thrive and live their most fulfilling life, safely.
Located between Foothills and Black Diamond, nestled on a 40 acre property stands the Peak K9 facility. Your pup becomes a member of the family with our in-home kennel setting. With acres to run and explore; Peak K9 will be their home away from home.
Your Trainers.
At Peak K9, we pride ourselves on having a dedicated and experienced team of professional trainers committed to helping dogs and their owners build lasting, trust-based relationships.
Kaitlin began her career in 2014, gaining extensive experience in a doggy daycare setting where she observed canine behavior for countless hours. She later transitioned to the veterinary field, completing her first aid and animal CPR training. After finishing her apprenticeship under Wunder K9, Kaitlin honed her skills with hands-on experience training various breeds with diverse challenges. Her personal connection to rescue work—adopting, fostering, and rehabilitating behaviorally challenged dogs—further fuels her passion to help owners and their dogs communicate and thrive together.
Andrew has been a lifelong dog owner, giving him personal insight into the challenges dog owners face. His professional journey began in dog kennels, where he absorbed knowledge from many sources before completing multiple apprenticeships. With over three years of experience in the dog industry, Andrew has expertise in advanced obedience, behavior modification, and puppy training. His time working with a K9 vendor also gave him valuable experience in training dogs for detection, search and rescue, and dual-purpose roles. Andrew continues to refine his craft daily, committed to offering the best training solutions to his clients.
Together, Kaitlin and Andrew bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to Peak K9, ensuring that every dog and owner receive personalized, effective training tailored to their unique needs.
