    Liam llegó para mejorar la vida de nuestra familia. Nos ayudó desde el primer día, a sanar la relación con nuestros compañeros peludos. Nosotros teníamos una situación compleja en casa con un cachorro grande e inseguro que se estaba volviendo insostenible. Gracias a su escucha, respeto, guía y sabiduría , ahora nos sentimos acompañados y estamos pudiendo vivir todos con mayor armonía. Nos ha regalado otra mirada y nos aporta recursos muy valiosos para cambiar la situación. !Gracias por tanto!

    Liam nos ayudó a educar a nuestra perrita Vin durante los primeros meses y no podemos estar más contentos. Con sus pautas, paciencia y mucho cariño, Vin se ha convertido en una perra obediente y es muy agradable convivir con ella. Las sesiones fueron online y, aunque sorprenda, el proceso fue muy cómodo! Entre las llamadas, los vídeos de comportamiento de Vin y los materiales que nos facilitó Liam, fue un proceso muy completo 👌🏽

    If you would like a mentally stable and well balanced dog then I would work with Liam as soon as he can fit you in. In order for you to understand your dog better you only have to listen to him. Take his lessons & learn everything you can. Be aware he can guide and advise you but you the owner still have to put in the hours and do the work.

    Liam introduced us to very respectful and intuitive way to interact with our dog. It feels much better than being the alpha leader and always decide how the dog should behave. I highly recommend to give it a try!

    Liam is an incredible dog trainer! From the very first session, it was clear that he has a deep understanding of dog and human behavior and a genuine love for animals. He worked wonders with our dog, who was struggling with leash pulling and basic obedience. Liam’s techniques are both effective and humane, and he took the time to teach us how to reinforce the training at home. What impressed us the most was Liam’s patience—not just with our dog, but with us as owners. He answered all our questions and made sure we felt confident in applying what we learned. Now, our dog is so much calmer and happier, and walks are finally enjoyable for the whole family! We couldn’t be more thrilled with the results. If you’re looking for a skilled and compassionate dog trainer, Liam is the one to call. Highly recommended! 5 stars all the way!

    About This Practice

  • Dog Trainer Ibiza is a premier mobile pet service specializing in canine education and behavioral therapy. Managed by Karin Lang-Ree, the practice focuses on humane, science-based training methods that foster a better relationship between dogs and their owners.
  • This service is uniquely positioned to help the international community in Ibiza, including long-term expats and short-term tourists who may be facing challenges with their pets in a holiday setting or a new home.
  • Facility & Team

  • As a mobile-first business, there is no public facility; instead, the 'facility' is the natural environment where the dog lives or walks. This ensures that training is practical and effective in real-world scenarios.
  • Karin Lang-Ree is the lead professional, bringing years of certified experience in dog psychology and obedience. She is well-known in the local expat community for her ability to bridge language gaps, offering services in English, German, and Spanish.
  • What to Expect During Your Visit

  • The process typically begins with an initial consultation at your residence. Karin assesses the dog's behavior in its home environment and discusses the owner's goals.
  • Following the assessment, a tailored training plan is implemented. Sessions are interactive, requiring owner participation to ensure long-term success.
  • For dog walking or pet sitting, owners can expect a professional, reliable service with updates on their pet's well-being.
  • Location & Accessibility

  • The service is 100% mobile, covering all areas of Ibiza, including Ibiza Town, Santa Eulària, Sant Antoni, Sant Josep, and Sant Joan.
  • Because the trainer comes to you, there are no concerns regarding parking, public transport, or wheelchair accessibility at a physical clinic.
  • Why Tourists Choose Them

  • Many tourists bring their dogs to Ibiza for extended stays and find that the change in environment causes stress or behavioral changes (e.g., barking at villa staff or anxiety in crowded areas). Karin provides immediate, on-site solutions to ensure a peaceful holiday.

  • Safety & Standards

  • Karin maintains professional standards consistent with European dog training certifications.
  • Booking & Practical Info

  • Appointments are primarily made via WhatsApp or phone call. Due to high demand during the summer season, advance booking of at least one week is recommended.
