Day Training

Day Training

Our Day Training Program is a full-day session that starts with you dropping your canine off with us, where we hit the ground running. Throughout the day, our expert dog trainers will solidify your pup’s obedience skills and allow them to socialize with other dogs. When the day is over, and you come to pick up your pooch, we’ll review everything they’ve learned and how you can continue their training at home. The results of our Day Training will be a more happy, confident, and well-behaved version of your dog.

Why Choose Our Board & Train Program?

  • Since the sessions are 1-on-1, your dog will be receiving training specifically tailored to any issues you’ve brought to our attention or that we’ve noticed
  • It allows you to get your canine the training they need while working around your busy schedule
  • You can get your pup that training they need without having to separate with them for an extended period of time

Matt Meitner

Matt MeitnerOwner & Head Trainer

Matt’s story is similar to so many others: He adopted a shepherd-lab rescue as a family dog but soon realized she was going to be more than he could handle alone. Bella showed signs of separation anxiety and dog aggression. In January of 2012, he reached out to Jason Loomis with Sit Means Sit-Milwaukee for help.

After just a few weeks, Bella was no longer anxious or dog aggressive as she once was. Matt officially joined Sit Means Sit-Milwaukee, as a part-time trainer, in July, 2012.

It wasn’t long before Matt realized his calling and became a full-time trainer in January of 2013. After a full year of learning under Jason Loomis, Matt became owner and head trainer of Sit Means Sit-Waukesha in January 2014.

In the first year of being a Sit Means Sit owner, Matt won the “”Rookie of the Year”” award for being the top new franchise owner.

In 2016, Matt competed against the top trainers in the United States and took home the title of Top Trainer in the entire country!

In October, 2017, Matt took the reigns of the location where he got his start and he is now the owner of Sit Means Sit-Milwaukee as well as Franklin-Oak Creek.

Matt and his wife, Olivia, have 2 children: Caleb, who is a promising young dog trainer of his own, and Alyssa, another little dog lover. Along with Bella, Matt has another dog, Kane, a pit-shepherd mix. Matt and his family saved Kane from being put down due to aggression and gave him a much happier and stable life.

Matt has a degree in psychology from Wisconsin Lutheran College and trains in tae kwon do at World Martial Arts Academy in New Berlin, WI, where he is a 2nd degree black belt. He also spends his free time coaching his children in their respective sports.

Tyler StauskeHead Trainer

Tyler is the head trainer at Sit Means Sit Dog Training and a very valuable member of the team.

After witnessing how well behaved his own dog became in such a short time, he knew he had to be a part of it.

Tyler has been training with Sit Means Sit since 2012 and loves every minute of it.

Whenever you see Tyler, you’ll also most likely see his dog Ben (Belgian Malinois) or his black lab Khali, right along side of him.

He is also going to college for business management to further his presence and skill with Sit Means Sit. He hopes one day to train and work with bomb detection dogs.

Matt is a really excellent trainer. He not only trains your dog, but he also trains you to be a better dog handler. When we first adopted Willie, a pit bull mix with a choppy backstory, we were told that he was great with other dogs. We found out within the first couple days of…

Matt has trained two of my dogs. Zoie charged the door and was aggressive with delivery people. Odin lunged at new people. Now both dogs are obedient, relaxed and their behavioral issues are solved. Matt is a wonderful person and trainer. Thank you Matt!

Linda J.

Matt and Olivia are outstanding. From my first (rather hysterical) phone call to Olivia, to Matt’s almost immediate response was something I had never received before. Olivia was extremely sympathetic when I called (my husband wanted to put our dog down) and assured me that Sit Means Sit could help. Matt called and scheduled a…
