Dog Training Classes
Any Dog Any Age Any Problem
Day Training Program
Day Training is the perfect choice for busy individuals who still want extensive training classes and want to be involved, but who can’t be with their pup the whole time. The setup is very simple. You drop them off at the start of the day, and you pick them up at the end. When you come to collect your dog from our facility, you’ll be blown away by the difference that 8-10 hours with professional dog trainers can make.
We include private sessions at each pick-up so that you feel equipped to continue your dog’s training in a constructive and positive manner. Before you know it, you’ll be knowledgeable in basic training methods, and your dog will have a happy and relaxed attitude, no matter their environment.
Group classes are also included in the dog training cost in order to provide further support and practice for the dog and owner.

Private Lessons
Private training sessions will expand your dog’s progress at an astounding rate. For an hour at a time, you and your dog will have the direct, uninterrupted attention of one of our world-class trainers. This is an excellent opportunity to tackle some of the more challenging problems in the dog training field, such as separation anxiety and reactivity.
Group classes are also included with our private lessons in order to provide further support and practice for the dog and the owner.
Private lessons are typically held at our facility, but we also offer in-home dog training lessons! Contact us today to start down the path of enhanced communication skills.
Puppy Program
Basic puppy training is the only right choice when you’re seeking ways to help your four-legged friend start life out on the right paw. Those first 20 weeks are when most of your dog’s development happens. If you have the right training tools and the right resources, you can establish a bond that lasts a lifetime.
This training approach is for all the dogs who are 8-15 weeks old.
The Puppy Training program will build a neutral communication system allowing the following:
- House-Breaking
- Kennel Training
- Socializing Your Puppy
- Basic Commands
- Leash Walking
- And so much more!
Contact us for a free consultation.
Group Class
Once your dog has completed one of our other training programs (day train program or private lessons), they can join us in group class!
Whatever your training plan, group classes are a fantastic option for continuing education and reinforcement. These classes are with other dogs who have had previous training through Sit Means Sit, which means they’re classes for like-minded individuals.
We offer several dates and times to accommodate busy schedules! Our current classes are held on the following days:
- Wednesday @ 7:30 pm
- Thursday @ 10 am
- Saturday @ 9 am
- Saturday @ 10:30 am
- Saturday @ 12 pm
Structured Daycare Service
Our Structured Daycare Services are the perfect combination of efficient training, playtime, and relaxation. We offer more than just a “safe spot” to drop your dog off. We provide a beneficial, stimulating environment where your dog can thrive in your absence.
When you choose Sit Means Sit, you never have to sacrifice your dog’s emotional state for a training experience that gets you results.
Drop-off is as early as 6:30 AM, and pick-up is by 6:30 PM (M-F).
Reactive Dog Training Package
One of the reasons we don’t turn anyone away is that we know that we can help any dog achieve a fulfilling life, even if they struggle with something as challenging as reactivity or aggression.
Our Reactive Dog Training Package is a structured 5-week program that transforms fearful, reactive pups into happy, confident dogs with unprecedented problem-solving abilities. By the end of these 5 weeks, you and your pup will be ready to take on the world.
Transportation to Training
We want our training services to be as accessible as possible, which is why we offer pet transportation. Whether you don’t have the time, means, or you simply want the convenience of it, allow us to handle your dog’s safe transportation to and from training.
Wedding Pet Attendant Service
Enjoy a stress-free wedding day where behavioral issues are non-existent. This service allows one of our professional dog trainers to assist on your wedding day, ensuring your furry best friend can be a crucial part of the proceedings. From walking down the aisle to family photos, our wedding pet attendants will make sure your dog exhibits good behavior and all their needs are met.

Dog Owners Reviews
We love customers and their dogs. They love us.
My husband and I adopted a young shelter dog, picked up as a stray. She is about a year and a half and had never lived in a home. Lily needed to learn manners, obedience and structure in order to live in peace and harmony. Sit Means Sit staff, Grace and Courtney, took charge and…
I was amazed with the results even after the very first class! Our pup is so much better than we expected after only 3 lessons. We look forward to continuing on with the group classes that are included to get the most out of the program, and see even more improvement with our pup! Shout…
Great experience at Sit Means Sit with our two bull terriers. They were patient with our stubborn bull-headed dogs. They lay a good framework and give you the tools but the owner must do most of the training at home. They do give good support and the graduate lessons are great to continue the work…
I have a Belgian Malinois which is an active, strong-willed breed. I am so thankful for the training at Sit Means Sit. My dog is doing amazing. She is like one of those TV dogs now. And it’s fantastic to have the opportunity to continue practicing with the group classes after the private sessions. She…
