Got Sit Dog Training San Diego

Obedience Training – Because Chaos Isn’t Cute

In North County, we love a well-behaved pup that fits right into our chill, outdoor-loving lifestyle. At Got Sit, we’ll teach your dog the basics—"sit", "stay", "down", and "come"—so they don’t embarrass you at the coffee shop or sprint after every surfer on the beach.

Fixing Bad Behaviors – No More Doggie Drama

Does your dog treat your furniture like a chew toy? Bark at everything from delivery drivers to passing clouds? We tackle chewing, barking, digging, and other "creative expressions" so your pup can finally embrace that laid-back San Diego vibe.

Potty Training – Because No One Wants Surprise Landmines

Whether you're housebreaking a new puppy or retraining an older dog, we make potty training painless. Our expert trainers will teach your dog where and when to go—so your home doesn’t become their personal restroom.

Socialization Training – No More Awkward Encounters

From dog parks to beachside cafes, social skills are a must in North County. Our training ensures your pup can handle new faces (both human and canine) without turning meet-and-greets into bark-fests or wrestling matches.

Leash Training – Walks, Not Tugs-of-War

If your dog treats walks like a CrossFit workout, it’s time for leash training. We’ll teach them to walk nicely without yanking your arm off, so your strolls around town or along the beach are actually enjoyable.

Puppy Training – Start Them Off Right

Puppies are adorable, but they also come with zero self-control. Our Puppy Training builds good habits from the start—so they grow into well-behaved, happy companions, not tiny troublemakers.

Advanced Training – Because “Sit” is Just the Beginning

For the overachievers out there, our Advanced Training goes beyond the basics. From complex commands to impressive tricks, we help your dog become the obedience MVP of North County.

House Training – No More Indoor Accidents

Whether your dog thinks your house is an indoor playground or a personal bathroom, we can fix that. Our house training ensures they learn the right places to do their business—because nobody likes surprises.

Vocational Training – Because Some Dogs Have Jobs

Not all dogs are just couch cuddlers—some have serious work to do. Whether it’s service, therapy, search and rescue, or hunting, we provide expert vocational training to prepare your dog for their new role.

North County San Diego Dog Trainers

Welcome to Got Sit Dog Training San Diego!

Is your dog ignoring you like a teenager with headphones on? Has your puppy turned your home into their personal jungle gym? Frustrated with training methods that just don’t stick? Time to think outside the leash!

At Got Sit Dog Training, we don’t believe in bad dogs—just bad communication. That’s why founder Marvin Versteeg developed a real-world, results-driven training method that makes communicating with your dog easy, effective, and reliable.

Unlike traditional training programs that teach in a classroom, we bring training into the real world. Your dog learns in your home, at the park, on a walk, and wherever life happens. We use real-life situations and real-life distractions to prepare both of you for success—because let’s be real, your dog needs to listen even when a skateboard zooms by or a seagull gives them the side-eye.

Training should be fun, rewarding, and stress-free—not a daily struggle. Our expert trainers will transform your dog into a well-mannered, off-leash-ready companion who fits seamlessly into your active San Diego lifestyle.

You and your dog deserve training that actually works. Call us today for an in-home consultation at (619) 704-9178 or visit our Contact Page to book online.

Isn’t it time to take training beyond the leash? Let’s do this!

How We Train
READ MORE

At Got Sit Dog Training San Diego, we don’t just fix bad behavior—we turn your dog into a rockstar. Whether you need obedience training, manners, or a full-blown behavior makeover, we’ve got you covered.

If your dog is running the show (instead of listening to you), it’s time to regain control. We train your dog and teach you how to confidently handle them, even in the most distracting situations.

Our method combines a proven training system with a practical, real-world approach. You’ll be amazed at how quickly your dog starts responding to commands, becoming a happy, obedient companion you can take anywhere.

We know you want a dog that’s happy, well-behaved, and safe—so you can actually enjoy life together. If you’re dealing with jumping, barking, chewing, accidents in the house, leash pulling, or aggression, we can help. Our training puts the “best” back in man’s best friend.

Every dog is different, so we evaluate their needs and create a custom training plan that tackles behavior issues head-on. The secret? We teach your dog to focus on YOU—not distractions. And that’s what makes our method stand out from the rest.
