What people have asked about this business.
What's the Day and Train program?
Hi there! Our Day and Train program is the perfect hybrid between Board & Train and Private Lessons. You'll drop your dog off with us in the morning, and our trainers will work with them throughout the day. And then you'll pick them up in the afternoon so they get to spend the night at home with you!

Our most popular option is our Board and Train program. Your dog will stay with us for a set amount of time, where our trainers will work with them daily to fast track your dog's training.

Sit Means Sit in Orlando has been incredible for our reactive dog. After completing a 15-day board-and-train program his improvement has been remarkable. The trainers and staff are the best! They are incredibly skilled in their work and truly invested in both the dog and the owner’s success. As part of our membership we have access to continued support through one-on-one sessions, group classes, and even phone and video guidance. Our family has felt supported every step of the way, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the progress our boy has made. Highly recommend! You won’t regret it!

Little Nellie, a pure beagle and I had a difficult start. She was 7 months when I first met Jen at Sit Means Sit. After learning about their program and getting a tour of the facility, I knew I found the right place for us!! Nellie got to know the staff quickly. I received updates on her progress and I felt the love. I got to meet each one of the trainers on our one on one training and they are willing to help Nellie as well as me!! They are compassionate and top notch experts! As soon as you walk in the door, you will find the staff so helpful and personable! When we return for our training or when Nellie spends the day in the daycare, Nellie knows she’s in a good place and looking for her four legged friends! We couldn’t be happier! Thank you to all of you there at Sit Means Sit!

Sit Means Sit helped our dog in so many ways. When we brought our puppy to them she had eaten through metal crates and had bad anxiety. We did a board and train with them and she has done so well. We did buy a new, safer crate that she enjoys and does not break out of. Her anxiety has gotten so much better. The staff has truly help our pup and us. We have learned so much from private classes and are looking forward to group classes soon. If you need any sort or help with your dog my number one choice would be Sit Means Sit. We are beyond thankful for such an amazing staff!! Everyone one who works there is dedicated to their work and cares so much about every dog in the facility! Thank you Sit Means Sit!

I took my 6-month-old Lab pup to Sit Means Sit Orlando’s Longwood location for a training kickstart, and it was totally worth it. They’d work with him during the day to lay down some basics, then we’d swing by for a lesson to pick up the reins and keep practicing at home over the week. It really helped sync up my family and the dog—better communication all around, which mellowed him out with that clear routine and structure keeping things chill - and he’s just as playful as before!
I know the real progress boils down to the effort we put in at home; it’s like hitting the gym—the trainers give you the plan and show you the moves, but if you don’t show up and do the reps yourself, you’re not gonna see those gains. We went for the package that includes a full year of group classes, so we can keep layering on top of the solid start we’ve got.
Our bond with the pup is stronger now too, and it’s very encouraging to train with him.
If you’re looking to get your pup sorted, I’d definitely recommend these folks. Five stars easy.
