What People are Saying

“As a pet sitter, I decided to take this online course to enhance my skills and ensure the safety of the pets in my care. The course is engaging, informative, and well-structured, making it easy to understand essential first-aid techniques. The videos with step-by-step instructions gave me the confidence to handle emergency situations with my pets. I feel better equipped to provide top-notch and would highly recommend this course to all pet sitters. ”

“I'm glad I found this course. It was a good refresher and especially important for me since I run a dog boarding home with a pool. There are so many programs nowadays that offer certification so I did my research on the Pro trainings company to make sure they were legit before signing up. I found Pro Trainings was an established reputable company founded by a paramedic. This was one of the only courses I found that was delivered by a vet. I will definitely need to review the cpr demonstrations and practice on some dogs to make sure I will be able to apply what I learned from the course in a real life emergency. Very satisfied customer. Thank you. Denise Cueba Owner, Green Doggie Home Boarding Granada Hills, Ca”
