Our Founder

I have been working for several years to purchase a large piece of land and build a beautiful new facility. We are finally ready to do so, and need funding to help make our dream a reality.


The Story of K-9 Divine

In 2003, I decided to quit my corporate job and become a dog trainer. For 4 years, I built up a clientele and a reputation in Washington, DC. My clients would frequently ask me if I would take care of their dogs when they went on vacation. So, in 2007, I bought a house in downtown DC and began boarding my clients' dogs.

I hated having to walk dogs on a leash because it didn't seem natural or free. I wanted to find a place where dogs could safely run free, so I rented a farm near Annapolis and bought a van so that I could transport them back and forth from DC. We had one van and 3 employees.

Fast forward to 2019. We currently lease a 16-acre property with a 5600 square foot warehouse and a 3200 square foot house, both of which are used to house over 100 dogs per day.  We have 5 vans and 35 employees. But, it is time to expand and to relocate to a property that we own, not lease. I found an old airport for sale on 88 acres of land, and the airplane hangars are a perfect fit for cage free dog boarding. We will finally be able to design things just as we want them, instead of making due with a leased building that we can't change. We are excited for better flooring, better heating and cooling, and more space for the dogs and staff.
