Pet Services

Mark Siebel, owner and lead trainer of DOGGIE STEPS Dog Training, had his first dog at the age of 10. A Miniature Schnauzer named P.J., was the perfect fit with his family of 5. Born and raised in Milwaukee, WI, Mark knew from a young age that he had a natural attraction to dogs. “I could never walk by any type of dog without petting it,” says Mark.

DOGGIE STEPS Dog Training leashed its first dog in 2005. Since then, over 3000 satisfied K’9’s and customers alike have experienced the pleasures of a “calm-submissive” dog. The goal has always been to show owners how to properly integrate their dog into the home setting. Consulting on what kind of dog to buy, where to buy it from, preparing your home for your new friend and health/nutrition are just a few ways DOGGIE STEPS helps its customers. Also, involving kids in confidently commanding the dog, enabling them with leadership skills and increased self-esteem. “It’s nice to see kids take ownership of the positive results that come from the training of their dog”, says Mark.

    Mark is awesome! He was referred to us by a family friend when our dogs that had spent a year together suddenly couldn't be in the same room without trying to attack. We had tried everything, even another trainer, and nothing seemed to work. Then Mark showed up and everything changed. He was calm and patient with our pups and we started working through commands as a family. With every session, the fights became less frequent. Our once timid dog learned confidence and our wild child learned to listen. We have finally been able to ditch the leashes in the house and life has gone back to normal. We are so appreciative of Mark and the tools he gave us and would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone looking for a trainer to fix their doggie issues. We can't thank you enough Mark!!

    I reached out to Mark to help us with our dogs separation anxiety in public. We love taking our dog everywhere with us. He would get highly anxious if anyone (myself,daughter or husband) was to leave (bathroom, run into a store, etc.) the "pack" while out with him. I signed up for Mark's 5 week, private program. It was worth every penny. He was always on time, polite, genuine and straight forward with what we needed to do to help our dog. He evaluated our dogs behavior and gave us the tools to help our dog feel more confidant. We can already see a change in our dog and are so happy we made this investment in him. I'm so thankful for the reviews on Yelp because that is how I ended up finding him. I hope this review gives you the confidence you need to reach out to him too.

    Doggie Steps Dog Training has come to our rescue!

    Mark Siebel was timely, courteous and he demonstrated sincere care in helping me correct bad behaviors that my Yoshi (Lhasa Apso) had developed overtime. Mark came to my home and gave me sound advice on simple changes I could make to turn my Yoshi's behavior around. He also worked with me on how to execute commands in order to be effective. We are now just steps away from a happy home. Thank you Mark!
