Sit Mean Sit is the REAL deal. Professional, knowledgeable Trainers/Staff. My CavaPoo was all over the place and just spoiled rotten to the core BUT after 10 days with Sit Mean Sit he’s obedient and calmer in spirit. 200% satisfied customer and recommend that you go see Sit mean Sit whether it’s for training and/or boarding; my pup LOVED his staycation-training!!!!

I took my dog Bingo there to work on reactivity, pulling on walks, and lack of confidence. I cannot say how pleased I am with the work Sit Means Sit RVA put in for her. Her behavior is much better, our walks are enjoyable, and she is overall happier. As am I! Highly recommend this training service. They care DEEPLY about each dog and it shows through their handling and care. They are also very trustworthy which cannot be taken lightly when it comes to our pet children. Thank you Sit Means Sit!

Brought my dog Roo for an evaluation at Sit Means Sit after visiting their booth at Riverrock. She is 5 and while she has always been really well behaved in the house, we’ve struggled with leash reactivity. After our evaluation we decided to sign her up for the 10-day board and train. I never could have imagined leaving her in the care of someone else for this long but I felt really comfortable after meeting everyone at SMS. I am so impressed with the progress she has made. Our walks have been made 1000x easier. I feel much more confident handling her and feel like our bond has grown stronger. I’d definitely recommend SMS to anyone looking into professional training.
