PetPact – Planning for Your Pet’s Future
PetPact® is a simple, trusted service created by Roche Legal to help you plan who will care for your pet if something unexpected happens to you.
It gives you peace of mind knowing your pet’s needs and wishes are formally recorded — and that the person you trust will be able to step in without confusion or delay.

What Is PetPact?
PetPact® is an expert-developed pet care plan that records your wishes and your chosen guardian’s details — a clear, practical document designed to sit alongside your Will.
It lets you name a guardian, outline your pet’s routines and preferences, and make clear your wishes for their ongoing care.
Created by our team of specialist solicitors, PetPact provides a practical, compassionate way to protect your pet’s wellbeing — even if you’re no longer able to care for them yourself.
You can create your PetPact quickly and securely online through our dedicated site, PetPact.com.
How PetPact Works
We’ve designed the process to be fast, secure and easy to complete from home:
- Choose your guardian – name the person or people you trust to care for your pet.
- Set your preferences – record details such as routines, dietary needs, veterinary contacts and lifestyle.
- Finalise your PetPact – your completed plan is stored securely, with copies available for you and your chosen guardian.
The entire process takes around 15 minutes to complete.
PetPact Plans
PetPact® is available in two options:
- Individual PetPact – £45
For one pet owner making their own plan. - Couples PetPact – £55
For joint pet owners who wish to make a shared agreement.
Both versions are available to purchase directly through PetPact.com, with instant access after checkout.
Giving Back
We believe in doing good for animals everywhere.
For every PetPact® purchased, £5 is donated to UK animal charities, helping pets in need across the country.
Frequently asked questions about PetPact
Not sure how PetPact fits with your estate planning, or whether you can change it later? Start here for quick answers before you create your plan.
PetPact creates a clear written record of your wishes and guardian arrangements, backed by Roche Legal’s expert drafting. It’s designed to work alongside your Will or estate plan.
PetPact can be used for any pet — from dogs and cats to rabbits, reptiles, birds, and beyond.
No problem! You can include up to three pets in each PetPact.
No problem. PetPact includes a couples version – perfect for couples, housemates or friends. You can make decisions together about what should happen if the relationship ends – like a “pup-nup” (but for all pets!).
No. PetPact is designed to be completed without legal help. However, if you’d like it to be incorporated into your Will or made legally binding, Roche Legal can help with that separately.
