FirstBarkWorking with Gianna at Sit Means Sit has been a life-changing experience. I cannot recommend their program highly enough. My dog went in as a scattered, loud, unfocused 3-year-old and came out a companion who listens and can enjoy more of life with me!

Program details
In our private training programs you will work side by side with our trainers on a weekly basis to teach and constantly improve the obedience and dog-to-handler relationship. After we take the time to guide and teach individual commands we will go on to build more positive habits and condition specific responses from your dog.

Don’t want to leave your pup with us overnight but still want the benefits of professional training? Our Day Train program might be a perfect fit! Day Train consists of 3 weekly training sessions. Your dog gets dropped off in the morning and picked up in the evening after their training session. After each session you will meet with a trainer and go over what was covered that day. Our trainer will assign homework and tell you what needs to be practiced before their next session. Once your pup has completed Day Train, they can participate in our Group Classes!

Great experience! I definitely saw a major improvement in my dog’s obedience and walks are so much more enjoyable! Amazing staff that take the time to educate and listen to any concerns. Gemini, Gianna, Ava, and Liz were all amazing!

Cannot say enough good things about the staff at Sit Means Sit. Everyone was extremely welcoming and felt so comfortable leaving Luciano in their care. Appreciate the time and attention they gave us. We worked with Gemini, Ava, and Gianna and all three of them were very knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. We are excited to start group classes and continue to use tools we learned in our 5-week program.
I would recommend this to anyone looking for training. Their facility is large, clean and well equipped, and the trainers worked well with our pup and with us. We really appreciated the individualized attention we got from all the trainers, especially Gemini, Liz, Gianna and Ava. Our dog took well to the training and loved being there, we look forward to continuing with advanced training!
Gemini Z, Elizabeth M, & Gianna M were all wonderful w/ my 2 yo Jack Russell Terrier @IndianaJonesJRT who needed to get back to basics and reinforce basic obedience.

Gemini Z, Elizabeth M, & Gianna M were all wonderful w/ my 2 yo Jack Russell Terrier @IndianaJonesJRT who needed to get back to basics and reinforce basic obedience. After the first two weeks of training my dog has been more attentive and responsive. Looking forward to continuing w/ the group classes. Special shoutout to all three of these trainers for taking the extra time to make sure I left each session feeling good in my and my dog’s capabilities.
