Hi, I’m Sabian, and I’ve been keeping reptiles for around half a decade. For the past two years, I’ve also worked within the exotic pet industry as a pet shop assistant, where one issue consistently stands out — it can be difficult for exotic pet owners to find someone knowledgeable and reliable to care for their animals while they are away.
Through both hands-on reptile keeping experience and working with a wide range of exotic species, with a focus on reptiles, I understand how important correct husbandry, routine, and environmental stability are for their health and wellbeing.
Alongside this, I hold a First-Class BSc (Hons) in Animal Management.
Kent Reptile Care was created to provide reliable, stress-free in-home reptile visits, giving owners confidence that their pets are being cared for properly in their own established enclosures while they are away.
Welcome to Kent Reptile Care — a Maidstone-based reptile home visit service focused on reliable, knowledgeable care for snakes, geckos, lizards, and other exotic pets while owners are away.

Flexible home visit pricing tailored to your collection and care needs.
Includes feeding, water changes, temperature & humidity checks, comprehensive welfare/health checks and photo updates upon request.
For multiple enclosures requiring care during the same visit.
For larger or more complex collections where visit time varies significantly.
Travel pricing for visits outside the standard Maidstone service area, calculated transparently at booking.
No additional travel charge.
Beyond Maidstone, travel is charged based on distance and journey time.
Visit frequency is agreed at the time of booking based on your reptiles’ species, enclosure stability, feeding requirements, and your preferences. This can range from daily visits through to reduced-frequency schedules, such as visits every 2–3 days where appropriate for the setup. All care schedules are confirmed in advance so you know exactly what level of care your reptiles will receive before the booking is finalised.
Contact me to discuss your reptiles, dates, and care requirements.
You'll be asked to complete a short care form covering your reptiles, enclosure setup, feeding requirements, emergency contacts, and any important husbandry information. This ensures all care is carried out consistently with your existing husbandry routine.
Once all details have been reviewed, your booking and visit schedule will be confirmed.
Visits are carried out according to your reptiles' normal routine, including feeding, welfare checks, and enclosure monitoring.
Photos and updates can be provided during visits, so you know your reptiles are doing well.
Whether you’d like to discuss your reptile’s setup, check availability, or simply ask a question about the service, feel free to get in touch at - kentreptilecare@outlook.com

Kent Reptile Care provides specialist reptile home visits across Maidstone and surrounding areas, supporting most commonly kept non-venomous and non-dangerous reptile species. This includes snakes, geckos, lizards, and other exotic pets. If you keep a specialist species, you’re welcome to get in touch to discuss suitability and care requirements.
Kent Reptile Care provides professional reptile pet sitting through structured in-home visits. This ensures your reptiles remain in their established enclosure environment, reducing stress while maintaining consistent husbandry standards while you are away.
If any health or welfare concerns are identified during a visit, you will be contacted immediately. Appropriate steps will then be taken to ensure your reptile’s wellbeing, and guidance or veterinary escalation will be discussed where necessary.
Visit frequency is tailored to each booking based on species, enclosure stability, feeding requirements, and environmental control systems. Depending on these factors, visits may be scheduled daily or at reduced intervals (such as every 2–3 days where appropriate). All care schedules are agreed in advance before any booking is confirmed.
Each visit includes full husbandry and welfare checks tailored to your reptile’s needs. This typically covers feeding where required, fresh water provision, temperature and humidity monitoring, enclosure inspection, and general health assessment. Photo updates can be provided on request for added peace of mind.
Reduced-visit schedules are only offered where the reptile’s enclosure setup and species requirements make it appropriate. This is assessed individually, with priority given to welfare, environmental stability, and reliable heating and humidity control. If a setup requires more frequent care, this will always be advised.
Yes. Kent Reptile Care regularly provides home visits for multi-enclosure setups and larger reptile collections. Care is structured within a single visit, with pricing and timing adjusted based on enclosure count, species requirements, and overall workload.
Before any reptile pet sitting service begins, you’ll be asked to complete a short husbandry and care form. This includes feeding schedules, enclosure setup details, heating and lighting instructions, and any species-specific requirements. This ensures continuity of care and consistency with your established routine.
Yes. Updates can be provided during visits on request, including photos and brief welfare notes. This allows you to stay informed about your reptiles while they are in care, particularly for longer bookings or more complex setups.
