Tomas Natterstad
Owner, Founder, & Trainer
From before Tomas can remember, animals have been his biggest passion. This passion drove him to begin his career in the animal care and behavior industry in 2009 in various shelters throughout the country. During this time, Tomas decided to complete a comprehensive course to get my dog training certification.

In 2019, Tomas decided to branch off on his own to focus on working with owners and their dogs as a trainer/educator! He began "Natterstad Pet Training", Now re-named "Sit's Getting Real!" Tomas aims to help owners resolve common behavior challenges, and ultimately to keep dogs from being re-homed and to help dogs stay out of shelters and rescues. Tomas enjoys working with the public to grow their understanding of dogs and their natural needs and teaching people to communicate with their dogs successfully to ensure a healthy, long-lasting, happy relationship.
