In case anyone lands on this post and is still struggling to get Wordmove db push/pull working with Local, this link may help:
https://github.com/welaika/wordmove/issues/552
I ended up resolving various issues with a lot of help from the Wordmove.
If you use another environment like AMPPS and/or Zsh then you may have additional steps to check.
Hope this helps someone out!
