About Me/ Company

Hairy McClairy's Pet Care Services has six years of experience of looking after dogs and cats, and provides excellent pet care to people throughout the local area. The service is based in Teddington, but covers other areas in South West London.




This serivce provides friendly and reliable care giving people assurance that their pet/s are being well looked after. The Services Hairy McClairy's provides are Dog Walking, Cat Feeding and Pet Sitting. All of the services are priced at reasonable rates.

A Dog Walking service is ideal for people who work long hours, and therefore don't have the time to walk their dogs. Dogs are social animals, so having this break during their otherwise lonely and boring day is good for their well being.

A Cat Feeding service is ideal for people who are going away but don't want to put their cat through the stress of going to a cattery. Its also good for people with fish, birds, rabbits and guinea pigs who need feeding and attention whilst on holiday.

A Pet Sitting service is ideal for people with dogs who are going away for a week or two but don't want to put their dogs into kennels. It also gives people peace of mind that their house is being looked after whilst on holiday.




The company is run by Lucy who has been involved in the Animal Care industry since leaving college in 2005. She has a passion for looking after animals, having previously done voluntary work at Battersea Dogs Home, The Mayhew Animal Home and The Blue Cross.




Hairy McClairy's Pet Care Services has a small group of customers, based in the local area who are willing to give references to future customers, and is fully insured.
