About the Trainer

What’s Unique About The Dog Wizard Scottsdale, In Their Words

The Dog Wizard Scottsdale is known for the close, personal connection our trainers build with every dog and owner, with clients returning specifically for our lead trainer’s patient, hands-on approach. Beyond obedience basics, our programs tackle real-world challenges like leash reactivity, separation anxiety, and off-leash reliability, with many dogs showing visible progress within the first few sessions. We also offer added support such as service animal certification assistance and in-home training options, so Scottsdale-area families get a program built around their specific dog and lifestyle.

Our Take

The Dog Wizard Scottsdale runs private lessons, group classes, board and train, day training, specialty classes, and American Kennel Club (AKC) training out of the Scottsdale and East Phoenix area. The team builds a close, hands-on relationship with each dog and owner, and many clients come back to the same trainer program after program instead of starting over with someone new.

Beyond basic obedience, the programs take on harder real-world issues: leash reactivity, separation anxiety, and off-leash reliability, with most owners seeing visible change within the first few sessions. The location also supports service animal certification work and offers in-home training for families who need sessions outside a facility setting, with each plan built around the individual dog.

Trainer Hailey Swain, an Advanced Wizard Trainer and Animal Behavioral College graduate, is part of the team, alongside other certified balanced trainers. Training starts with a free evaluation, and programs start at $250 depending on the dog’s needs. Appointments run Monday through Friday from 7am to 5pm and Saturday from 8am to 4pm.

The Dog Wizard Scottsdale holds a 5.0 rating on Google from 39 reviews, with clients repeatedly praising trainer Isaiah’s hands-on teaching and follow-through.
