Disappointed and angry! My dog is 4 and half years old and…read morehas been going to Pet Set for 4 years. Boarding and day care. He loved it and the staff there! Something with their care has shifted. My dog usually gets excited when I pull up to the building. But this time was different. I had to pull him out the car to go into the building. When we got inside he wasn't excited like usual to in the back, the staff actually picked him up to carry him to the back. He is 33lbs. He was terrified but I didn't know that then. You see the last time he was boarded he came home with what the said was a "hot spot ". I asked how did he get a hot spot on the top of his head. I was told he came in with a hot spot, we do body checks when they first come in. I do body checks constantly myself and know he didn't come in like that. Now yesterday my husband picked him up from a 4 day stay and again he has an " hot spot " but this time it looked worse than before, we took him to the vet they said it looks like trauma to his head. Two swollen lumps on the top of his head, antibiotics for 10 days and he had to wear a cone. He has not been himself since coming home. We are outraged, upset, hurt and sad that we let him down. He trusts us to take care of him and this happens. We will never go back to that place ever again! I hope you don't either. Protect your babies.

We have been taking our dog to Kay's for some time now, but recently, when I got ready to drop him…read moreoff, the receptionist approached me rudely for no reason. We had an appointment to shelter our dog for a week, which we do often because we love to take vacations. On this day, when I arrived, my dog was a little more curious than normal and was pulling me in a different direction. Knowing I would be gone for a while, I decided to give him extra attention. While allowing him to sniff around, the receptionist came out of the building, didn't speak now greet me but immediately said, "What do you want, " which startled me, because I wasn't expecting and my back was turned. I turned around and replied, I have an appointment. Her next reply was, "Well hurry up, we are getting ready for a meeting." How was I supposed to know they were having a meeting, I didn't get the memo, I was there for one thing and that was to drop my dog off for boarding. Fortunately, another lady behind the counter who checked my dog in was very kind and a delight to deal with. Fast-forward, after returning from the trip my wife went to pick up of dog, which we refer to as our son, and returned home. Mine you, we just had our dog groomed about a week and a half early. We've dropped our son off there on many occasions and when we got him back this time he didn't even look like our dog, my wife said someone Kays said he was continuously peeping in his cage and he needed to be neutered and he does it every visit, surprise-surprise that's news to me. My dog had matted hair in his face and ears, apparently from lying and sleeping in his peep. I'm so disappointed.

Based on my experience, I cannot recommend Sit Means Sit. I have a 6-year-old American Bulldog mix,…read moreThor, and we live in the Old Fourth Ward area near the Beltline, which is heavily populated with dogs. After being attacked at a dog park, Thor became extremely reactive toward other dogs. It got to the point where simple walks became stressful, and I could no longer take him to public places because of how intense his reactions were. I tried working with another training company and even attempted training on my own, but after losing his sister, his behavior worsened. I didn't want to give up on him, so after researching options, I decided to move forward with Sit Means Sit. After our consultation, I felt hopeful and enrolled him in their board and train program in November 2025 with clear expectations: improved leash behavior, reduced reactivity, and the ability to safely take him out in public. During his stay, I communicated that he has anxiety during storms and provided Trazodone from his vet to be used only as needed. I received daily updates and was told he was doing well. However, I was later informed he was still highly anxious and had been taken to a vet and given additional Trazodone. While I understood the situation, I was concerned about how frequently it was being used, as it was not intended for regular daily use. When I picked Thor up, I immediately noticed he was still pulling hard on the leash, even just walking to the car. Within a week of being home, his behavior regressed significantly. Walks became difficult again, and attempts to bring him to public places like coffee shops were unsuccessful. We did attend one group class in December 2025 at Truist Park, and that experience was very discouraging. Thor was extremely reactive, to the point where I felt like I needed to leave the session early. It was upsetting to see that he had just completed training yet was behaving as if he had never been trained, especially while other dogs in the group were responding well. The board and train package was also presented as including unlimited follow-up sessions, including in-home visits to address ongoing or situational behavior issues. That was a major reason I chose this program, as I expected continued support and the ability to work through real-life challenges in our home environment. Because of that, I did not leave a negative review immediately after the program ended. Instead, I reached out multiple times requesting in-home sessions so the trainer could address the issues that were clearly still present. In a five-month period, we only had two in-home sessions. Despite this, I remained consistent in working with Thor--taking him on regular one-hour walks and continuing to train with him on my own because I truly do not want to give up on him. Five months later, I am still dealing with the same issues. Thor is difficult to walk, remains reactive toward other dogs, and cannot comfortably be taken to public places. This has been extremely disappointing given the investment and expectations set at the start. To be fair, the team did organize group classes and invited us to attend. However, due to the distance from our home and conflicts with my work schedule, I wasn't always able to make them. When I asked for alternative support, I often found availability to be very limited. Most recently, I was told the trainer is fully booked for at least 60 days. Throughout this process, I felt like I had to chase support rather than receive it. I was not asking for additional help without reason, but rather trying to use the follow-up support that was included as part of the program. I was willing to invest in training because I truly want a better quality of life for my dog, which is why this has been so disappointing. Overall, I cannot recommend this program based on the lack of progress and limited accessibility for continued support.

I chose the time and was told "ill see you then". The day of consultation I called but they weren't open yet so I continued to their location 40mins away from me just to be told my appt was canceled because I did not confirm. No one reached out letting me know this was canceled! Additionally the person who was there said the trainer was at someone's home to do the evaluation and all evals take place at the home. Plus I should've received an email to confirm the appt. Well none of this was explained on the initial call and neither did anyone ask for my email or address for that matter. I was told to write my info down and someone would contact me. Well that was about a month ago. Poor communication upfront could only mean potential issues going forward. Will spend money else where as costs aren't cheap for these services.
