Hi there! I’m Kierstin Geary - Must Love Dogs SoCal Founder. I am a San Diego based Certified Professional Dog Trainer (CCPDT-KA), and have been working with dogs for over 10 years as a foster dog parent (no fails yet), doggie day care supervisor, in-home boarder, and trainer.
After being part of many weddings over the years, I noticed a real need for day-of dog handling—because couples want their pups to be part of the celebration without putting the responsibility on a guest. Must Love Dogs SoCal was born.
Planning a wedding, elopement, or even an engagement shoot is stressful enough, so my goal for is to involve your pup without the hassle of logistics, so you can be present on your big day.
Must Love Dogs serves San Diego County and Orange County with additional locations available upon request!
