Welcome

Your go-to place for training, walks, and sleepovers

Our mission is to create long-lasting bonds and fill that need for people looking for a trainer, walker, and sitter. We are here for all of it and we pour our hearts into every single interaction.

What We Do

Our Signature Services

Private Training with ShesMyDogLady in San Diego
60–75 min

Private Training

Private lessons run 60 to 75 minutes and treat you and your dog as a team. Using balanced methods, we start by talking through your lifestyle and goals, then learn what your dog cares about most (toys, food, affection, or something else) and build everything from there.

Trail to Tub

For the dogs who want more than a walk. Trail to Tub outings are adventures with your dog lady, for one dog or the whole crew. Depending on the day, that could mean the dog beach, a hike, a trip around the city, Fiesta Island, a pack walk, or one of our group classes.

What Makes Us Different

We specialize in the dogs others find difficult

Reactive, fearful, high-energy: these dogs don't need less care. They need the right care.

Reactive Dogs

We help you feel confident and in control walking your reactive or barking dog, at a pace that works for both of you.

Working Breeds

High drive dogs need structure and purpose. We provide the outlets and training they thrive on.

Rescue Support

Rescues often carry history. We meet them with patience and help them settle into their new life.

Fearful Pups

Fear-based behavior requires a soft touch and consistent approach. We go at the dog’s pace, always.

Dogs in Training

We reinforce the work you’re already doing.
