Daniel is the absolute best. Oshie is learning so quick and it’s been a great experience so far!

It works!! This is the best obedience training course I’ve ever experienced! I opted for the one-on-one sessions with a trainer for my 2 yr old terrier and I’m so happy I did. The training is simple and it just makes sense. It’s been very easy to stay consistent with their at-home instructions, too. I love that they follow up and you can ask any questions that come up between sessions. I feel very supported by the staff and my dog is a perfect gentleman after only 4 sessions. Strangers even comment on how well behaved and well mannered he is when we’re out! It’s been amazing watching my dog’s confidence blossom both inside and outside our (very quiet, bark-free) home. Huge thank you to everyone at Sit Means Sit!

This is the second pup I have sent to Sit Means Sit and they do not disappoint. Having a rescue that started showing signs of reactivity made me very nervous of what to do. Todd and the Sit Means Sit staff made me feel comfortable for both my pup and their safety within the first consultation. I cannot recommend them enough and can feel confident in caring for my pup. Thanks SMS 🤍

Daniel was extremely helpful. Petey is much better around my kitties but not yet trained completely to leave them alone. He goes to his place and will sit but doesn’t stay on it long. He knows sit and down but gets up shortly thereafter. I believe he is testing me so I keep working with him. Barking is less unless someone comes to the door

We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Sit Means Sit, especially with Jason as Nigel’s trainer. Nigel has made incredible progress in such a short time. He’s more confident, focused, and we’re learning just as much as he is. Jason has been patient, knowledgeable, and has given us practical tools that have made a huge difference both at home and out in public. The group classes have been a great next step for continuing his training, and it’s been fun to watch Nigel build on everything he’s learned. If you’re looking for a trainer who truly cares about both the dog and the owners, we highly recommend Jason and the entire Sit Means Sit team!
