A Morning of Connection

This past Saturday, Dogs On The Run welcomed our network of Pet Care Professionals to a warm and engaging morning at Lofty Coffee in Encinitas. With more than 330 vetted professionals throughout North County and San Diego, bringing our community together is more than simply convening, it is an investment in the elevated care we provide to every pet family we serve.

The mixer created an opportunity for our professionals to connect, exchange insights, and continue strengthening the standard of excellence that defines Dogs On The Run.

We were honored to hear from Pamela, one of our dedicated professionals and a compassionate holistic grief coach, who shared her work guiding families through the emotional journey of pet loss. Her perspective served as a thoughtful reminder that exceptional pet care extends far beyond daily responsibilities and includes supporting the emotional well-being of every pet parent.

Courtney, a renowned local dog trainer with twenty years of experience, also introduced her upcoming Puppy Socialization classes scheduled for December 13 through January 17, 2026. She emphasized mindful, puppy-led exposure to new sights, sounds, people, and environments to help build a foundation of confidence, stability, and resilience for young dogs.

Erika, a valued member of our administrative team, shared her love for thoughtful gifting and the personalized keepsakes she creates to celebrate the pets in our lives, including custom coasters, frames, and ornaments. Hearing our professionals speak about the meaningful touches they bring to the families they serve highlighted the genuine care that defines this community. Leading with love is truly a standard among this remarkable group.

Gatherings like this sit at the heart of what makes Dogs On The Run unique.

By investing in the professionals who care for your pets, in their knowledge, their connections, and their continued growth, we elevate the experience you receive as a pet parent. When our experts come together to collaborate and support one another, the level of care each pet receives rises with them.

Here is to more moments that strengthen our community and enrich the lives of the pets and families we are honored to serve.
