Unlike other dog training programs, Got Sit uses your home and the world at-large as your dog’s classroom. We prepare both of you for real life situations amid real life distractions.
Tap a behavior to book a free consultation. One program covers all of them.
Because a dog that behaves in a training room is not the same as a dog that behaves at your front door, on your walk and at the park. Here is how Got Sit is different.
We train where the problems happen: the doorbell, the kitchen, the sidewalk and the park. Real-life distractions are part of every lesson, so the results hold up in real life.
Our method teaches you to communicate so your dog understands. You learn to lead, your dog learns to focus on you and ignore distractions, and the bond gets stronger.
Every consultation is free and in your home. We work with your dog on the spot and bring one of our trained dogs so you can see exactly what the method produces.
Marvin Versteeg founded Got Sit in 2007. Today a team of trainers covers Seattle, the Eastside, King County and Snohomish County with the same proven program.
Nine programs, one method. Every service starts in your home and is proofed in the real world. See all services.

Welcome to Got Sit Dog Training!
Tired of having an unruly dog? Know your puppy needs manners? Frustrated with dog training programs that don’t work? Ready to think outside the leash? You’ve come to the right place!
Got Sit Dog Training believes there are no bad dogs, simply bad communication. To that end, owner Marvin Versteeg developed this unique training method that makes communicating with your dog easy, effective, realistic and reliable.
Unlike other dog training programs, Got Sit uses your home and the world at-large as your dog’s classroom. We focus on preparing both of you for real life situations amid real life distractions. Emphasis is placed on positive reinforcement and fostering a strong owner-dog relationship. Results are immediate, long lasting and life changing. You’ll both be rock stars.
Owning a dog is a long-term commitment. It’s supposed to be a fun, enriching, positive experience. It should increase your quality of life, not your stress level. Marvin and the Got Sit team can help transform your dog into a well-mannered, obedient, happy companion you can confidently incorporate into your life – on and off the leash.
You owe it to yourself and your dog to invest in effective dog training. Call Marvin for an in-home consultation at 425-405-5748 or visit our Contact Page to request a visit online.
