Claire's Pet Care

Claire’s Pet Care is a service designed to give a loving home away from home for your pets. My aim is to give your dogs the one to one attention, love and care it receives at home. If you are going on holiday, visiting family, in hospital, or away at work, you need to know that your pet’s welfare comes first, with little disruption to their routine. A home environment, with regular walks and playtimes.

I started the business in April 2001, my husband Nigel is also involved, his main job is the daily dog walking, and many of the home visits.

We also take care of cats and other small animals, which include their daily care, feeding, cleaning, cuddles and attention. We are able to visit your house for their daily needs, and we also have a small cattery in the garden.

Claire’s pet care also has a grooming parlor and washroom, ideal if your dog requires clipping, hand stripping or a general tidy up. Grooming can be done whilst boarding, or when required by owner. You are always welcome to visit.

We are fully insured, and have public liability insurance. We would treat any dog as part of our family.
