Fantastic course, the layout of information makes it so easy to understand and take in! I was astounded by how easy and simple the layout of your course are that it made me want to study more! Chloe Jones
I have a degree in animal behaviour so it helped me to expand and relearn my knowledge around animal health and care. It also made me feel more confident about analyzing certain behaviours and in how to approach training. Jade Thomas
It has improved my life, I have started my own Pet Sitting business and left the corporate world to pursue my passion and dream. So to put it mildly it has change my world for the best. What would I say to friends is what I already say to them, take the course: it's a great value and you will learn, unlike other online courses that teach you nothing, with Holly and Hugo you have to pass a test and they are not easy questions to get certified. Patricia Lackner
I'm so glad I stumbled upon Holly and Hugo, their courses have provided me with great insight into my shelter animals behaviour and needs. I signed up to the webinar because I wanted to learn how I could better prepare the people who adopt from my shelter for either their first pet or a rescue pet. The webinar was great and although it did help answer my questions about this I found myself interested in the material for my own pets also. I'm up to my fourth course now and im loving it, I feel confident in sharing my knowledge to everyone. Siobhan Bottoni
The course content was brilliant! It also stuck to the point and didn't veer off into only distantly related subjects unlike some courses I have attempted in the past. The e-books are a great idea and very attractively designed, and very helpful. I really like the layout of your course material and the ease of use, and it's great to receive a certificate from yourselves, an accredited one AND the added bonus of the Completion Letter and the Breakdown Transcript! I am finding it very rewarding to be learning so much on these courses and I am certain the new knowledge and understanding I am gaining will be hugely beneficial in helping me to achieve my animal career/business goals and also my ability to care for and understand my own and others animals. The Holly and Hugo team are lovely people who are very easy to communicate with and are always helpful And their social media presence is an awesome way to stay connected and feel part of an enthusiastic community. Don't look any further for courses!! Choose Holly and Hugo!! Susan Grainger
The format is very good - if I cannot complete the course, it brings me back to where I left off previously. The information is very thorough and I have been able to put some of it into practice already. I enjoyed developing further knowledge of how to interact with animals and learning what to do if they are in distress has been very helpful in my work with local rescues. I liked the self-paced aspect the most and I was able to complete it when I had time to commit to the lessons. Natasha Orslene
I have just completed the CPR and First Aid course and very much enjoyed it. I found it very informative and I'm looking forward to other courses. I did the course as an animal lover and hoping it will help me with my future business idea. I would recommend this course to anyone who is an animal lover or has pets.

I've researched a lot about online certifications and this is the best option by far, I wouldn't use any other. The variety of classes are packed with interesting and detailed information and are all you need to learn, useful real life skill building. The modules are set up beautifully and cleverly as to provide the most understanding and know-how of the course materials. I can honestly say these are all very engaging and a lot of fun in learning. I give the highest recommendation for both your personal and professional enrichment. I plan to keep up doing these different courses for a long time to come. Jeffrey
