K9 Kula

Dogs have been at the heart of Robin’s life and work for over 20 years. Her first job in the dog industry began in 2005 at a busy dog daycare, where she gained hands-on experience managing group play and learning to read canine body language. That early start sparked a lifelong passion for understanding dogs and helping them thrive.
In 2009, Robin launched Robin’s Nest Petsitting & dog walking, laying the foundation for what would grow into K9Kula social club, built on trust, connection, and adventure.
Robin’s approach is rooted in her love for the human–dog relationship and supported by a rich background in education and certifications:

   •    Certified Pet Groomer (2013)
   •    Sophia Yin Low-Stress Handling Techniques (2014)
   •    UNLV Animal Massage & Care Provider (2015)
   •    Certified in Pet Dog Training (2017)
   •    Graduate, School of Dog Psychology (2018)
   •    Oregon Tails Jentle Method (2020)
   •    CPR & First Aid Certified

With every milestone, staying true to one mission: to advocate for all dogs and help them thrive as companions, friends, and family members. Her work is guided by curiosity and a commitment to constant learning—because the best teachers, she believes, are the dogs themselves.
K9Kula is the culmination of Robin’s experience and passion: structured social programs designed to fulfill a dog’s need for exercise, instinct, and connection—while giving their humans peace of mind.
When Robin isn’t out leading the pack you’ll find her studying new methods, exploring better ways to strengthen the human–dog bond, or traveling alongside her own four-legged companion.
