Midwest Pet CPR & First Aid

Welcome!

What we do

We offer hands on Pet CPR & First Aid classes (for dogs and cats) in the Greater St. Louis Metro Area.

The PetTech ® courses were created specifically to educate pet parents and professionals and fill the gap between home care maintenance and emergency care in the field, prior to veterinary care, if and when necessary. We teach people what they can do to enhance the quality of their pet's life through day-to-day actions and what to do in the event of a medical emergency. The programs are designed to complement veterinary care and save precious time when seconds count.

About Us

About the Instructor

My name is Kat. I started out in the pet industry in 1994 and have been a pet groomer since 2004, specializing in dogs with disabilities and special needs. I became a PetTech® certified Pet CPR/ First Aid Instructor in 2016 after having personal experiences where CPR and rescue breathing were required. Sharing those experiences with others made me realize how important this knowledge is and how many people don't have it. Whether a pet care professional or a loving pet parent, everyone needs to be educated in what to do during an emergency involving their furry family members.

What you will learn

Through a mixture of lecture, power point presentation, and hands on skills practice, you will gain the knowledge and skills needed to care for your pets in almost any situation. The classes cover how to take simple preventative measures and what to do in emergency situations.

Why PetTech® ?

PetTech® is the first international training company dedicated to Pet CPR, First Aid, and care for dogs and cats. PetTech® teaches information in a hands on practice environment to give students the opportunity to internalize the information. All PetTech® Instructors go through rigorous training and work closely with one another to share learning practices. As instructors we all have the same goal: to help educate both parents and professionals on proper care for their pets.
