Highlights
Pet care experience
Your Pet's New Best Friend!
Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for a wide range of pets. I studied Animal Care at college, completing both Level 2 and Level 3 qualifications, which gave me a solid understanding of animal welfare, behaviour, health, and handling. I also spent four years working at Redwings Horse Sanctuary, where I cared for horses and donkeys, where I learned the importance of providing consistent, compassionate care tailored to each animal's individual needs. This experience strengthened my confidence in handling animals, recognising signs of illness or stress, and maintaining high welfare standards. Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up and into adulthood, I've cared for dogs, cats, rats, chickens, rabbits, and guinea pigs, so I'm comfortable looking after pets with all kinds of personalities, needs, and routines. While I don't currently have pets of my own, I regularly spend time with my best friend's adorable sausage dogs, Dolly and Flossy, and her ragdoll cat, Nancy. I help care for them whenever needed, whether that's feeding, walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping them company while my bestie is away. One of the reasons I've joined Rover is because there's definitely a pet-shaped hole in my life! I genuinely love being around animals and understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. I'll treat your pets with the same care, patience, and affection that I would my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I understand that trusting someone with both your beloved pet and your home is a big decision, and I take that responsibility very seriously. My priority is always to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away by following their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication (if required), and plenty of affection. When caring for pets in an owner's home, I will always treat your property with the same respect and care that I would my own. I'm reliable, tidy, and considerate, and I'll make sure your home is kept secure and left exactly as I found it. I believe good communication is important, so I'm happy to provide regular updates, photos, and messages for extra peace of mind while you're away. With my Animal Care qualifications, four years of experience at Redwings Horse Sanctuary, and a lifetime spent caring for animals, you can be confident that your pet will be in caring, capable hands. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel relaxed, happy, and reassured throughout the entire experience.
Ratings and reviews
Rhiannon is lovely and Scruff my little Scruff clearly had a wonderful time with her - he was relaxed and happy to see me when I got home His long walk (dressed in one of his favourite jumpers!) resulted in a lovely lie in for us both the following day, which was especially great for me after a long trip out knowing he was in good hands
Rhiannon was amazing with our cats! We got photo updates everyday and we could see that she had spent time with the cats, and even managed to win over our anxious cat Ruby!
Rhiannon was great with our cat Pepsi. She was very reliable and we felt very reassured having her come in twice a day. We often got pictures of Pepsi getting her lap cuddles in - so clearly Pepsi likes Rhiannon as well 😊
Rhiannon is super friendly create for communication. And clearly loves animals. Have already rebooked!
We wholeheartedly recommend Rhia! She's a lovely person who understands dogs and our babies got on with her very well. Rhia reassured us throughout the day by sending us pupdates, we are so grateful for looking after our precious doggies! We will definitely use Rhia again!
Rhi was born to look after animals. As a cat parent and one that worries about leaving my babies with other people, she does everything to calm my nerves. I never have any concerns and know that they are in capable and loving hands when they are with Rhi. It’s a comforting combination of experience (from rat to horse) and the innate love and affection she has for animals that means I will only ever pick Rhi. It’s truly hard (as a crazy cat lady) to go away and entrust something so precious with another person, so I’m eternally grateful that she makes it so easy!

Schedule
I work full-time Monday to Friday from 9:00am to 4:30pm, which means I can provide care before and after work during the week. I'm available for morning visits before work for feeding, toilet breaks, walks, and companionship, and then have plenty of time in the evenings for longer walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, and any other care your pet needs. My weekends are generally much more flexible, allowing me to dedicate even more time to pet care and ensuring your pets receive plenty of attention and company. I'm organised, reliable, and committed to sticking to your pet's usual routine as closely as possible, helping them feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you're away.
