Full-time Dual-Breed Dad at your service. ❤ 36/m

Pet care experience

I've kept cats and dogs my entire life. Admittedly my canine experience is very slightly less than feline, so no giants please! Everything and anything else though, I will care for as lovingly and attentively as my own two fur babies. I can't wait to meet you and your furry friends! 😁

Robb was absolutely fantastic looking after my little kitten and my Labrador. Extremely helpful and kept us updated with adorable photos the whole time. Such a lovely person as well. Highly recommend!!!

Fantastic service from Rob, would highly recommend this chap. He asked all the right questions in preparation for looking after my little man, and provided updates whilst I was away. Truly 5 star service that took the worry out of leaving my boy for the first time. Rob has such a natural affinity for animals and they can tell! They just love him, and you can tell he loves his job too, which is so nice to see. Just hope Rob is free for future bookings for him.

Robb is always amazing with Rory! He's so professional and is a great communicator. He's flexible and reliable and I never stress knowing that Rory is with him :)

Robb was a great sitter for our two dogs. Kept us very well informed and handled things brilliantly when one of my dogs took a turn with an illness. Really really recommend him! Left detailed updates and sent lots of photos so I could ensure my doggies were okay. :) Thanks so much!!

I have a fenced garden. 2 adult cats to keep your pet company. I have spent a lifetime caring for creatures of one sort or another, and plan to extend all that to your pets. They are our family, after all. Rest assured, I know exactly how important they are to you, as mine are to me. If I am likely to be caring for your animal in your home overnight, access to the internet would be greatly appreciated, if possible. If there are any musical instruments available in your home, I find that playing music for animals can be a really strong bonding tool. I can play anything with keys or strings. As well as a regular grooming routine; Morning and evening brushing for no less than 30 mins per animal, per session.

Information Robb B. would like to know about your pet

If there is any consideration or need that I can meet for your animal, I will do so gladly. No ask is too small or large. Pets are family and I respect the responsibility being given to me enormously. As such, I will do everything I can to ensure the wellbeing and safety of your little buddies. Their wish is my command. I will be contactable for the duration of all appointments 24/7 via the app, without exception. I personally guarantee any time spent with me will be peaceful and safe. I am a very calm, amenable person.

A typical day

Each day the girls and I awake early. They stay in the house overnight due to the large amount of predatory wildlife in the local area. First, everyone has breakfast and fresh water. Then the girls usually like to go and roam about outside in the garden for a few hours, weather permitting. They are also very happy to curl up and sleep in one of their many radiator beds or scratching post / giant houses, or blanket nests. Tilly likes to play fetch, a trick that she taught herself. She will bring you things to throw for her. Lilly is a more peaceful and timid soul. She does love to play but is far more cautious. Also, a lot more of a big softy. She loves humans almost as much as she loves food.... which is a LOT. We have a HUGE selection of toys available throughout the house, an array of different foods available. As well as constant supervision / one on one time. I will be 100% attentive to your pets needs for the duration of thier time with me. Bathing available circumstances allowing.

Currently fulfill a role within my home so am available basically 24/7. I would prefer to keep my weekends my own, as I spend them with my family. However, we could potentially agree on something, for the correct price, circumstances allowing. DO NOT HESITATE to contact me regarding availability or catchment area. I would love to hear from you and will respond immediately. Mates rates are entirely possible. It is worth being aware of the fact that we may need to discuss additional travel costs, IF you live outside the Southampton City Center area. Travel can become expensive and time consuming very quickly, so I appreciate your understanding regarding this matter. Let's talk. :)
