    Paco is a 4-year-old Mini Aussie who is loving, playful, and full of energy. For a long time, walks…read moreand outings were difficult because he would become very reactive whenever he saw another dog. Taking him places and enjoying walks together honestly felt impossible. We decided to enroll Paco in Sit Means Sit, and we are beyond grateful we did. Matt has been absolutely amazing with Paco. He is patient, knowledgeable, and truly cares about the dogs he works with. He always took the time to answer my questions and made sure I had the right tools and guidance to continue Paco's training at home between sessions. The transformation has been incredible. Paco now comes when called the first time, sits in place, and best of all, walks calmly right next to me. He no longer pulls, jumps, or walks out of control. I'm finally looking forward to taking walks with him and can't wait to continue seeing his progress every day. Huge shoutout and thank you to Paco's amazing trainer, Matt!

    Well we are two weeks in with our doggie being home and having done a week of Board and Train with…read moreBrian. Prior to SMS, we were having issues with confidence and excitement. He was charging people and dogs while walking ONLY with me. And growling at and even attacked one of our cats, who for reference was his best friend for ages. They'd even sleep together and played a lot. I wanted Miles to get to training before we ended up with him biting someone was my greatest fear. So we picked him up on 4/20 in the morning and went over basics with Brian. Miles was EXHAUSTED for the first few days. Obviously from all that physical AND mental work. But he was immediately different. SO chill. Completely relaxed. By Tuesday of last week (just three FULL days after being home, almost 4,) I was already able to walk him and get Heel, Sit, Down and no reaction to people OR dogs passing with just a 1 tap on the remote. We started with a 3 or 4 the first few days.Miles regularly does GREAT with just this level. We went back on Friday, 4/26 for a session to follow up with Brian. We were VERY pleased with Miles progress as was Brian. We worked on the heel to perfect it and also Tie down, the leash stand and reviewed a few questions. Because Miles was doing so well, Brian suggested that maybe he'd do well with agility work. So he set him up a small course, and put him through it. Well Miles did NOT like it. He LOVED it!!! He had SO much fun. And he was doing AMAZING. He caught on SO fast. So fast rbat Brian sent us specs to build the jumps!! We also worked on high object "place." And Brian gave us lots of tips on that. With it only being 9 days since our pickup and 13 days since he started training, I'd say this was 1000% worth this training. We didn't have a BAD dog but a dog that needed some tweaks and some humans that needed help doing it. Now my husband and I look forward to walks and spending time with and taking him places. And Miles therefore gets MORE time with his people. Ellie, our daughter, LOVES doing "place" and commands with him and Jack, our son, is LOVING agility SO much that he and his dad already started building Miles jumps!!! We aren't very far into this but so far 5 HUGE stars. Thank you Brian!!! Also the office staff has been tremendous. They are responsive and kind and great at following up. 9ur entire experience from consultation to two weeks out is excellent!

    Let me just tell you, if you have a puppy/dog, take them to this doggy day care. Nothing else in…read morethe area will compare. I'm telling you. They go ABOVE AND BEYOND. They truly care. They truly love their job. They RADIATE it. They care so much and have SO MUCH KNOWLEDGE. If you ask a question, say a behavioral question, they immediately know the answer and extra tips. I kid you not, please do your fur baby some justice and bring them here. YOU will greatly appreciate it. I love receiving our pup's daily puppy report card. She loves the brain games they offer, (which if you don't know what a brain game is, FIND OUT! I truly think, my puppy wouldn't be as smart as she is without them. They really get her mind working in the right ways. My puppy wags her tail more for them than us. (I'm a wee bit jealous). Thank you again ladies. You make our lives easier. Our pup is a happier pup because of you. You are greatly appreciated. Sincerely Andrea and Lacee.

    I made a first appointment and asked for a specific vet, who had been here twice before when she…read moreworked for a different service. My cats were so comfortable with her. The appointment was scheduled for almost 2 weeks in advance. The day before the appointment, the vet contacted me about what time I should give my cat gabapentin - she was having blood drawn and needs the sedation. An hour after she contacted me, my appointment was canceled via a canned email. No explanation as to why, but it mentioned calling to reschedule and offered a $50 off coupon for the hassle. The following day I did that. I confirmed an appointment over the phone and, moments later, received a text, saying someone would be calling because my appointment couldn't be confirmed. I called back after a few hours because no one called me. I got another appointment scheduled for the following week. In the meantime, I was asked to send records, which I did, via email. I received a message saying that the emails were empty - - my files weren't showing up. But when I opened the messages, the PDFs were all there. I resent them and asked if they received them, but never got an answer. Didn't matter anyway because, by then, my third appointment had an issue. I received an email saying that it couldn't confirm because I hadn't filled out the payment information on their website. There was no way I was planning to pay ahead of time, especially with all of the problems I was having keeping an appointment with them. I called again and they couldn't figure out why I would need to pay ahead of time because that's not a requirement. I have never not paid a vet bill and I have good credit so there shouldn't have been a problem. I began to feel like it was deliberate. I started to feel like the vet, who had been here before, didn't want to come back for some reason. So I actually made a fourth appointment, but didn't ask for her specifically. Everything went without a hitch on the phone and I picked a window of time from 4 to 7. But then I got the confirmation email with a time of 12 to 4. I had given it enough tries, and I decided that if this is how it goes on the administrative side, what kind of treatment is my pet going to have? Three tries would've been enough. I gave it four. I'm taking my business elsewhere. I asked who to complain to after the second issue and was told I would get a form to fill out, sent via email. That never happened. They also said a liaison would call me. Never happened. After the third time I was told a liaison would contact me. Again, never happened. When I called after the fourth mishap, I was told a liaison would contact me. Guess what? It never happened. So, since you don't seem to have anywhere to make complaints, I'm making it public here.

Kleo and Kenzi are so calm sitting in their living room getting pets, treats, and shots! Today I had Dr. Posey take blood to run a full panel on Kenzi and Kenzi just layed there through all of it! Kenzi is 11 and her Osteoporosis is really getting bad. Doctor Posey suggested a new medicine that is having good results so she gave Kenzi her first shot. Sitting and talking to her about Kenzi's age and arthritis was so helpful for me. NO, it's not cheap, but so worth it! I live in the Portland, Oregon area, but they have units all over the country. I highly recommend them.
