How Dances with Dogs Helps Miami Dogs

Why Dances With Dogs is different

Most Miami dog owners face an impossible choice: Hire a trainer who doesn’t see your dog daily, or hire a walker who doesn’t understand behavior. We’re different. Your dog walker works with your trainer because we are the same team, same philosophy, consistent results, No coordination headaches. No mixed messages. Just seamless care that actually works.

PUPPY & DOG TRAINING

Dogs don’t naturally come with good manners! Pulling on leash, jumping up, not listening can leave you feeling frustrated. Your dog should be a source of joy, not irritation. We have a variety of training options to help you get back to enjoying your dog.

DOG BEHAVIOR

What your Miami Neighbors are Saying

“Katie is extremely knowledgeable and genuinely passionate about dog training. She taught us practical techniques to help our sweet goldendoodle handle her reactivity. We’re very happy with the progress we made and the work we did together.”

– Luis A.

“Sabrina, Katie and the whole team are great! Our energetic Irish setter loves when they come and has a great time on walks with them. He always comes back tired and fulfilled, and the team takes great care of him. Each walk finishes with a report on the app and photos from the adventure! Couldn’t be happier”
