Dwarf galaxies are metal-poor, faint stellar systems orbiting in general around massive host galaxies. They can be used as cosmological probes as well as laboratories to constrain galaxy formation and evolution. However, most of the recently discovered faint satellites have an ambiguous nature. This ambiguity can be lifted with spectroscopy. But using spectroscopy to that end is only effective if enough stars members of these systems can be identified, which is not always the case given their faintness. My thesis presents the detailed studies of three Milky Way satellites, Draco II, Sagittarius II and Laevens 3, that aim to unveil their nature using deep broadband MegaCam photometry and DEIMOS multi-object spectroscopy. These data are suppl...
