Petcover proudly partners with Responsible Pet Breeders Australia

We’re excited to introduce our exciting new partnership with Responsible Pet Breeders Australia (RPBA), Australia’s largest ethical breeding community for all breeds.

Founded in 2018, RPBA believes every cat and dog deserves love, care, and ethical treatment, regardless of lineage or breed. RPBA creates a space for responsible breeders and pet owners to share their voices and work together for the welfare of animals across Australia.

Championing ethical breeding

Driven by the principle that a dog or cat’s well-being starts with their first breath, RPBA commits to upholding the highest standards of animal care and ethical breeding practices.

At the heart of RPBA is a Code of Ethics, which bans breeders with more than 10 un-desexed females from joining our ranks, leaving no room for puppy farms. They stand for animal welfare at every level—from their veterinarian-approved practices to their Verify Tool which protects breeders and potential owners by validating breeders’ credentials. Their Full Members also undergo routine veterinary audits to ensure their facilities meet high standards of care.

Supporting breeders

RPBA doesn’t just stop there. They’re actively developing RPBA Pedigree Papers that honour every breed, aiming to support breeders with the resources and recognition they deserve. Whether it’s breeder education, training tips, or community initiatives, RPBA exists to uplift and protect pets of all breeds across Australia.

RPBA is proudly Australian-owned, and centred on a deep respect for animal welfare and breeder integrity. RPBA believes in empowering breeders with knowledge and tools, from educational resources to training support, making sure that every pet raised under their members’ care is given the foundation for a happy, healthy life.
