Don't just take our word for it. Instructors, class attendees, and others have a lot to say about Pet Tech, and we're happy to share just a few of these comments with you.
Here's what some of our instructors have to say about the Pet Tech Instuctor Training . . .
 I have been a member of the Pet Tech family since 1998. Thom Somes and the people of Pet Tech are focused on educating and developing the Pet First Aid and Safety Industry that makes them unique. I and my business have benefited greatly from the education and support Thom has given me over the years. I have risen from the beginnings of dog training to being selected trainer of the year 2005 by two international organizations. This stems from the public speaking and education tools and support Thom gave me many years ago."

 "I am a retired law enforcement K-9 handler. I had to obtain my R.V.T. license as part of the requirements for the job and I also took several months of various other forms of training, along with another international organization's pet first aid course, as part of my education. I took the Pet Tech PetSaver™ program in 2000 at a pet sitters convention (my current occupation). I learned more about the techniques of pet first aid in that eight hour class than I did in the entire K-9 program and finally obtained the confidence in myself to know that if something tragic occurred to one of my pets or a client's I was finally prepared to handle it. I always kept my certificate current and finally took the instructor's course, so I could provide this knowledge to my associates in the pet sitting industry, my clients, and all my pet loving friends. Pet Tech has a motto "Improving the quality of pet's lives one pet owner at a time" and I am now one of those pet owners and hoping to show others how to be one also. "

 "I initially met Thom Somes, "The Pet Safety Guy" when I hired him to be a speaker at the 2006 IACP Annual Conference. He was a dynamic speaker and I was impressed enough with his presentation to host a PetSaver Instructor course at my facility. I'm glad I did. Becoming a Pet Tech Instructor has been a valuable addition to my business. Thom and the crew at Pet Tech did a wonderful job not only of educating me as a PetSaver™ Instructor but also in helping me further develop and market my program."

 "Becoming a certified Pet Tech Instructor lends credibility to any Pet Care Professional. People are more at ease about leaving their four-legged children when they entrust them to someone who is trained in how to appropriately respond in the event of a medical emergency. The Petsaver Program, presented by Pet Tech Inc., has given me peace of mind knowing that in any given situation I would be prepared should the need arise. I sent emails to about 100 of my clients after my training, describing the course and asking who might be interested. I now have 65 people waiting to take the course from me! I can't wait to get started!"

And here's what some of our class attendees have to say about our classes . . .
Wow, that was fun and informative. I had a great time. I wish it had been longer. Last night I was kicking myself for signing up for the class, cause I had to drive 45 minutes away, and it’s on a Sunday, and I’m tired,
blah, blah, blah, but I got up and went and boy am I glad. I learned so much from it. I thought 8 hours was going to be tough to sit through, but it flew by. I really wish they had 2 classes. I also thought it was going to be just basic 1st aid Bologna, but no, they went over choking. Poisoning, burns, cold injuries, shock, etc, not to mention the parts on diet and nutrition, dental care and senior pet care. It was awesome. I learned a lot that I can take to the shop and really make my customers more informed about their own pets, as well as make me feel more confident in caring for them while they’re in my care. If you get a chance to take this class, I highly recommend it. Worth every penny.

I attended the Pet Tech PetSaver Program which encompassed CPR and 1st Aid Training. I would say I would highly recommend the class to anyone, from groomer to pet owner. I took the Red Cross Class a couple of years ago and have to say I feel this one is much more comprehensive. There were so many more topics covered, in detail and the material given to us is excellent. There are so many little things you just don’t think about happening that can. It’s always good to be prepared.

Greetings Mary,
I wanted to thank you for your excellent pet
CPR and first aid presentation. You and Beth provided an information and protocol rich day that could only enhance my goal to be an excellent pet care provider. Thank you for caring enough about the critters to provide education that will save lives. Both paws up to you.
What people "in the know" about pets have to say about Pet Tech classes . . .
"This is a great program! I believe that every pet owner should take this class. The more they know about their pet's care the easier their veterinarian's job will be."
