Years with Dogs
Meet the Founder
Hi, I'm Mia.
I've spent the last 6 years working closely with dogs, and one thing became crystal clear: most dogs aren't getting nearly enough real exercise. Not because their owners don't care, but because life gets in the way.
I started The Canine Gym to solve that problem. By bringing professional fitness sessions directly to your door, I wanted to make consistent, structured exercise something every dog owner could actually stick to.
Every dog I've worked with has a different personality, energy level, and set of needs. That's why we take a personalized approach, because cookie-cutter fitness doesn't work for dogs any more than it works for people.

Why We Exist
The Problem We're Solving
Over 56% of dogs in the US are overweight. Most aren't getting the daily exercise they need. We're here to change that, one session at a time.
Dog-First Always
Every decision we make starts with one question: is this good for the dog? Safety, comfort, and wellbeing are never compromised.
Real Results
We track every metric so you can see your dog actually improving, not just trust that they had a good time.
Built for Hamilton County
We're a local business built for this community. We know these neighborhoods, and we're invested in the dogs that live here.
Personal Relationships
We get to know every dog we work with. Your dog isn't a number, they're a client with a name, a personality, and a fitness journey.
Raising the Bar
Dog fitness deserves the same technology and professionalism as human fitness. We built the app, the tracking, and the experience to match.
Convenient by Design
Convenience isn't a nice-to-have, it's the whole point. If it's not easy, it won't happen consistently. We come to you so it always does.
The Journey
How We Got Here
It All Started With Dogs
Mia began her career working professionally with dogs, training, boarding, and learning everything she could about canine health and behavior.
Discovering the Slatmill
After seeing the transformative impact structured, consistent exercise had on the dogs she worked with, Mia became obsessed with making it more accessible.
The Canine Gym is Founded
