Kersti Moss

With DTC USA since: 2012

Background
Kersti has had a passion for working with dogs for as long as she can remember. Kersti grew up always having dogs around and was usually the kid hiding in a corner reading books about dogs (her favorite being The Encyclopedia of Dog Breeds). Her family’s Border Collie, Freckles, had a huge impact on her closeness with dogs. Freckles was quick to pick up on gestures and cues, which sparked her interest in how people communicate with their dogs.

Kersti started volunteering at AniMall Pet Adoption and Outreach Center to help animals in need and to meet other animal lovers. She worked her way up to manager at AniMall, then connected with Dog Training Camp USA.

At first she juggled both jobs at once, but soon decided to pursue her dream full time. In 2015, Kersti became the Dog Training Camp USA Team Manager, and in 2018 became a co-owner of the company.
