They fought several times, and were war allies on a number of occasions. The principal one was the Peloponnesian War 431-404 BCE, Sparta and its allies versus Athens and its empire.
If you are talking about Cities States and the Peloponnesian War is mainly because half of the states were in ally with Sparta and the other half were allies with Athens, plus some other neutral states. Sparta and Athens were the two dominant states back then, so when Athens started to gain more and more power, Sparta didn't like that. The possible reason why Sparta and Athens were in dispute all the time might be the governmental system, Sparta had an oligarchic system, and Athens a democratic system. Was like nowadays political parties.
Sparta and Athens united to fight against an invasion of Persia.

When the Persians sent the punitive expedition against Athens for interfering in Asia Minor, Athens called on Sparta for support, however the Spartans arrived to late to join in the battle at Marathon. With the Persian decision to take over all the Greek city-states, the cities had the option of either agree, as did some of the cities, or fight against it. Sparta and Athens both agreed to join with the city-states which resisted.
