I’m Rebecca, a Veterinary Medicine student at the University of Bristol. For the past two years I’ve been caring for cats and dogs through Rover and Pawshake. I have decided to take the leap of setting up Rebecca's Pet Club, so that I can take on clients independently as a fully insured and registered business!
I offer in-home cat and dog care, dog walks and daytime house sitting, with both regular and ad hoc bookings available. I currently have a few regular client spaces available on Wednesdays from 13:30 and Friday from 16:00.
Being a vet student is a big part of what I bring to my pet care. I draw on all of the hands-on animal experience to get to know each pet and understand their behaviours and needs. My aim is to build a solid, trusting relationship over time and not to rush the process.
Of course, I love all moggies and mutts but I do have a particular soft spot for sighthounds. This came about during a charity placement with a lot of rescue greyhounds, so I’m always especially happy to see one pop up in my bookings!
My primary service area is Nailsea, but I also cover Backwell, Cleeve, Long Ashton, Clevedon and all the bits in between.
I am fully covered with all appropriate insurance.
You'll find lots more information about my services and pricing as you navigate through the website. I am always happy to answer any queries - the best way to get in touch quickly is via Whatsapp.

Some of my most satisfying achievements have been winning over cats who hated me when they first laid eyes on me! I relish the challenge of building a relationship with cats I care for and am happy to wait patiently until they're ready to trust. I have learned and continue to learn many approaches and skills, guided by the "Cat Friendly Clinic" and "fear-free" handling approach to interacting with cats, taught at Bristol Vet School. I am always careful to mention any potential health or behaviour changes I notice during my visits. I offer different time options for cats, depending on how comfortable they are having me in their space.
I have worked with an array of dogs in many settings throughout my veterinary training - at cat and dog shelters, as well as several small animal veterinary practices. I have also been providing dog walking and drop-in visit services for the past two years. I have an excellent understanding of dog behaviour as a result and always strive to keep dogs and people safe. I aim to leave dogs content and relaxed by giving them my full attention during my visits. I allow plenty of sniffing when out on walks. I also do off-lead walking, where suitable to allow for maximum energy-spending! I am happy to implement any basic training clients are working on, if requested. I care for dogs of all shapes and sizes but there is a special place in my heart for sighthounds, after working with many ex-racers at the GSPCA!
