I cannot thank Sit Means Sit enough and to their trainers dedication to not only listening to me but also asking me what my goals were (and I didn’t even know what those were)! When I came in for the consultation I was still skeptical but hopefully because my dog was born deaf. But boy am I glad I was wrong and took that leap of faith! I can’t say Charlie was bad and untrainable but being that he was born deaf, I didn’t know where to begin and how to get him to “listen”. Not only are they dedicated in training obedience and lifestyle training to your dog but to you as well. They were more than patient with me and Charlie and answered every question and concern I had as them came up! I am more confident than ever that I can create a comfortable lifestyle for me and my fur baby Charlie. Looking forward to the lifetime bond. Thank you so much again! Happy Graduation Day Charlie! Also he’s not a big fan of hats 😂

We enrolled our 5-month-old Great Dane puppy at Sit Means Sit and were beyond happy with the results. Because of his size, we wanted to be sure he was well trained, and we had been struggling to keep his focus during training at home. Heather worked with Barkley for four weeks, and the transformation was incredible. Not only did she train Barkley, but she also took the time to train us, showing us how to confidently and effectively handle him. We couldn’t be more pleased.

The training and the staff was excellent. The team at Sit means Sit stepped in and helped us through an incredibly difficult time with our high energy German Sheppard showing aggression towards other dogs. I would highly recommend this training to anyone experiencing similar situations.

The staff here is fantastic! Everyone I’ve interacted with were very knowledgeable and showed great interest in training both myself and my dog! Hailey our trainer did an exceptional job getting our dog trained, the progress made in only 4 weeks was impressive! I personally learned a lot in how to reinforce the training our dog received ! Great customer service! Any questions, issues or concerns we had along the way were responded to very quickly. Thank you, looking forward to the next step with the group classes!

Hailey, Heather, Marisa, Kasey and team have been super awesome to get to know and have helped train both of my dogs in the past year. Not only does SMS work with your dogs, but they also train the humans and explain the whys which is very helpful. Although both of my dogs were very different when they first arrived, Murphy was a 7 month old puppy and Rory was a super anxious rescue, they were able to build each of their confidences and listening skills. I highly recommend training with them and am super grateful for all of their help. And knowing that they offer continuing classes and support post graduation is a welcomed benefit. I also highly recommend SMS’ structured daycare as my dogs look forward to it and love all of the staff.
