PetProHub is a platform designed to help pet owners find professional pet care providers across Warwickshire and the West Midlands.
It focuses on directly connecting pet owners with established pet care businesses such as dog walkers, pet sitters, groomers, trainers, licensed boarding providers, and other pet-related businesses.
Search engines return a wide mix of results, including unverified providers and informal services. It is also easy for local pet care businesses to get lost on platforms like Google, especially if they don’t rank high enough to feature on the first couple of pages.
PetProHub is focused specifically on professional pet care businesses, helping pet owners find relevant, reliable providers more easily.
Unlike platforms such as Rover, Tailster, and Cat In A Flat, your clients do not have to book through them. Also, with those types of platform they take a commission of around 20% from the price you quoted the client on their platform, leaving you out of pocket on every booking through them. In addition, they can have a reputation for being slow to pay out to the pet care business.
You pay a straightforward monthly subscription to be listed, while dealing directly with your clients at all times. They contact you, book with you, and pay you directly. There are no commission fees on your bookings and no long-term contracts — giving you full control over your business.
PetProHub is open to professional pet care businesses, including:
Dog walkers
Pet sitters
Cat sitters
Groomers
Trainers and behaviourists
Licensed boarding providers (home boarding, kennels, catteries)
At the current stage, businesses can register their interest for free.
When the platform launches, listings will operate on a simple affordable monthly subscription model,
The planned pricing is a £20.00 per month recurring subscription for a standard listing, which should easily pay for itself with one or two additional bookings each month. More tiers will be added as the platform grows.
Early registrants will receive priority listing when the platform launches.
PetProHub is currently in development.
The platform will move to the next stage once there is a sufficient number of businesses that have registered interest in joining and listing.
A listing will include:
Business profile
Services offered
Contact details
Website and social links
Location and areas covered
This is a future feature. The Verified PetProHub badge will be intended to highlight professional pet care providers.
This may include confirmation of:
business insurance
licensing (where required)
professional operation
Not all pet care services require a licence.
However, services such as boarding and daycare must comply with the
Animal Welfare (Licensing of Activities Involving Animals) (England) Regulations 2018. and be licenced and inspected by their local authority
PetProHub aims to promote awareness of these requirements.
PetProHub is being developed as a search platform, allowing pet owners to find businesses based on:
location
service type
professional criteria
PetProHub is being promoted through a combination of targeted local marketing, search engine visibility, and direct outreach to both pet owners and pet care businesses.
As more businesses join, the platform becomes more useful, which naturally attracts more users — and that growth builds over time.
The aim is to create a dedicated place where people come too specifically for pet care, rather than relying on general searches.
PetProHub has been created by Steve Frost owner of Tcpetcare, an established pet care business in Coventry operating since 2019.
The platform is being developed with a focus on professional standards and industry understanding, and in time will be transferred away from the the Tcpetcare website to its own site.
