This place is absolutely fantastic. Worth the money! All the trainers I interacted with were amazing. My dog and I worked with Justin. He was incredible with my dog. He genuinely cared about her and was constantly asking what else I wanted to work on. I will certainly be back for the group classes!

Where do your training lessons take place?
One of our biggest training philosophies is tackling any training issue at the root of the problem, which is usually away from the home under distracting environments. That being said, we encourage both private and group training sessions at our facility or in a public setting that we refer to as “field trips”! If there are specific issues at your home, we offer lessons there to tackle those specific issues. If you have more questions about our programs, give us a call or fill out the form on our website.

What are prices? To do this
Sometimes they do have a coupon in the clipper flyer. Prices vary depending on the package. A couple hundred to a thousand dollars. I had a very aggressive dog and he did wonderful with Sit Means Sit.

I would recommend Sit Means Sit to anyone! We have a nervous rescue chiweenie mix who has long struggled with walking with anybody except me & reacting on walks to people and dogs. By the end of her 3 days she was walking on a loose leash in a public place with a trainer and even staying when the trainer set her leash down! We loved the videos the trainers would send during her sessions and are excited to continue her training with at home visits. Extra thanks to Isabel for all her work with Roo!

Cam and Jo were fantastic with my two lab puppies!! After one training session, there was significant improvement that was noticeable to all our friends and family. By the end, they were completely different dogs. They both did an excellent job of ensuring we understood how to keep up the training at home and thoughtfully answered all of our questions. I would absolutely recommend them and Sit Means Sit to anyone who needs help or support. Thank you so very much!
I brought my 3 month old golden retriever puppy in to get him trained because I am a first time dog owner and needed some help. He is doing great so far and I definitely have learned so much that I would not have learned if I did not go to sit means sit.

Where should we start?! We have two Australian Shepherds, Richie and Rosie, and from our very first consultation with Dave, we knew we were making a great choice. We signed up for the three full-day package that includes future private and group classes. On the first day, we were excited but kept our expectations low. Richie was nervous around men, and Rosie is a typical puppy who jumps and explores with her teeth! We were absolutely blown away after just day one. Our first day was with Cam and Jo, and the following two weeks we worked with Elly and Jo. Extra shoutout to Elly — working with her and Jo these last two weeks has been amazing. We truly cannot say enough great things about them. They are incredibly informative and really make sure you understand what they’re teaching. Both dogs picked up loose leash walking and their commands so quickly, and we’re committed to continuing the practice at home. We’re already looking forward to coming back for group classes in the future!
