Sit Means Sit Dog Training - Cecil County Maryland and Delaware

We enrolled our 5-month-old Great Dane puppy at Sit Means Sit and were beyond happy with the results. Because of his size, we wanted to be sure he was well trained, and we had been struggling to keep his focus during training at home. Heather worked with Barkley for four weeks, and the transformation was incredible. Not only did she train Barkley, but she also took the time to train us, showing us how to confidently and effectively handle him. We couldn’t be more pleased.

We really enjoyed working with Sit Means Sit! My husband and I had previously tried to train our pup Benny on our own, but with working full time, we felt ultimately what was best for him was to get some productive, structured training.

Pongo (six years old) was adopted by my partner and me in November 2025. By January, we'd observed a lot of issues. We eventually connected with his original owners. They explained how they couldn't get him to walk on a leash, how he ate furniture and killed small animals in their backyard, and how when left alone, he ate himself.

We started the day training program on February 14. Within the initial two weeks. Pongo understands simple commands. (Sit, come, down, pe

Marisa was great and very patient with all of us! Below is my son’s review… Great experience! My dog is really obedient now because of what we learned! There are dogs that might bark middle of the session but overall great place.

I could write a small book praising this business and team for all they have done and continue to do for my dog and I. I was looking for somewhere that could help me eventually get my dog to be an off leash dog with good boundaries, confidence, and obedience. I am not a stern kind of dog owner that so many places and trainers seems to say is needed to train dogs, so came into this really not confident myself. I signed my 12 week old puppy for their puppy obedience course and haven’t looked back. The philosophy here is not punishment or alpha type of training. They simply teach, reinforce, redirect, and build the dogs confidence to do what is being asked. Once we completed the puppy course, we went right into the one-on-one training program with Heather and we have made such amazing progres
