"I was initially skeptical our dog Willie could be trained. We rescued him at 1 years old and he was a handful. He basically walked me on the leash. After just one daycare session you could see the difference and each week after he improved tremondously. Now he walks calmly next to me on his leash. He still has his loving personality but behaves and listen..." Read more

"Neil, Sam and the rest of the trainers at Sit means sit are truly amazing. My husband and I, having never had a puppy before, decided we needed help to give our girl the best fundamentals. After a quick talk with the team we signed her up for the Dream Dog program. Imagine my surprise when she responded to "come" and "sit" after her first ses..." Read more

"I cannot say enough about how wonderful Neil and Sam have been with our 8-year-old, previously untrained rescue. The level of care and love they bring to helping us learn about the best way to support our boy is incredible. Finding them was the best thing that happened to us (after finding Luther :))"

"Neil and Sam literally saved our sanity and my husbands back! Our sweet pup has extreme anxiety and wouldn't go to need places or climb stairs. She was a new pup after the first day and within three weeks she was up and down stairs on her own! Brooklyn absolutely loves going to training and I love knowing we can get Neil's support throughout Brooklyn's life!..." Read more

"Neil and Sam at Sit Means Sit are ah-MAZ-ing! We have been thrilled how our Sadie (Portuguese Water Dog puppy) learned to follow commands so quickly through the SMS program. The weekly drop off sessions for the pup and one-to-one human training at pick up are invaluable. Add in the ongoing weekly group lessons to practice with Neil and Sam and other pups and..."

"I can not say enough GREAT things about Neil, Sam and the rest of the staff at SMS. My dog Roscoe has been part of the SMS family since 2018. We would not be where we are today with him if it wasn't for Neil and his wonderful guidance. Fast forward to 2021 and we now have a new addition to our family, Mr. Bob, our 5lb 8 month chihuahua who joined the SMS fam..." Read more

"I would highly recommend Neil with Sit Means Sit. When I first met with Neil my dog was struggling with some issues that I didn't quite understand (he acted like he wanted to kill dogs on walks, but was fine at daycare... he barked like he wanted to kill strangers, but actually loves to be pet... etc etc). He was not only a nuisance around our apartment, but..." Read more

"Without our five training sessions with Neil, we would not have enjoyed our time with our dog Laika as much as we do now. When we first adopted Laika, neither we nor Laika knew how to communicate with each other. She bit both of us on separate occasions. Neil's training sessions taught us how to use different body languages to give commands to Laika, and to..." Read more

"Neil is fantastic. We adopted a sweetheart of a 10 month old Golden and German Shepherd mix, who had a few demand barking issues when home alone with her new mama, and insisted she knew best when on the end of a leash. After one session with Neil, we immediately saw results. We love her to death, and we could not be happier with Neil's service."

"Neil does amazing work! He has so much knowledge and expertise in his field and the dogs honestly love him! He clearly loves what he does and is always willing to answer questions and follow up with training. I would highly recommend this service to anyone with a dog."

"I got a 3 month old boxer puppy and quickly realized I needed help. I've never owned a dog before and soon realized how much work it was going to be to train her. She would bark through the night in her crate and would not stop. I needed help and sleep. I called Neil after meeting with another company who came and did nothing for my pup. Neil came by and..."

"Neil is an awesome teacher. His skills and experience with dogs is fantastic.
What sets him apart from the rest is his ability to transfer the important knowledge and skills to the dog owners. He makes sure YOU succeed in creating that happy obedient dog that loves and trusts you!"

"I've got family and friends in Westchester county, I grew up in New York and I'm a fellow Sit Means Sit owner in Denver. I've had lots of experience with Neal on both the business and training side of things and he's fantastic! Our system is well documented to be successful, and Neal has brought a ton of experience, personality and skill that will be a great..." Read more

"When I first brought Bailey, a Cockapoo, home, he was 3 months old. He was easily house broken but resisted any kind of obedience training. Since he was so small, although it was annoying that he didn't listen to commands, I believed it was not important. Last November, I slipped on some leaves in the driveway of the apartment building I live in, let go..." Read more

"Neil has been incredible! He is extremely patient and our dog loves to go to training! We can now have an enjoyable walk with our dog with no pulling or jumping. He also makes himself available for any questions or concerns outside of scheduled sessions. Highly recommend!"

"I cannot overly state how much Neil from SitMeansSit helped me. I adopted a pitbull on death row, was told she was fine with other animals, and maybe she was in the shelter, but definitely not once at home. She attempted to maul my female pitbull, and I was helpless to change this behavior, and looked to return her, which would have meant certain death for h..." Read more

"I started with Sit Means Sit in a different state, but I wanted to do a check up with my Kingston just to make sure we were on the right track. Neil said I could come to a few group classes free of charge to see how Kingston was doing. He and his assistant trainer were incredibly kind and helpful and my first group class was a great experience. Neil is takin..." Read more
