Our story

Sit and Stay Dog Training began with one simple idea: life is better when you truly understand your dog.

Our founder, Wanda, grew up surrounded by dogs. Generations of her family trained gundogs, and from an early age she learned that good training isn’t about control, it’s about communication, patience and trust.

After a successful career in education, public service and entrepreneurship, Wanda decided it was time to follow her lifelong passion. She started small with dog walking, then added training and boarding, building a community of owners who shared her love of learning and connection.

In 2022, Sit and Stay Dog Training was born. Today, we help dogs and their owners of all shapes and sizes build calm, confident relationships based on understanding, not frustration.

Because when you get that bond right, everything else just clicks.
