Hair of the Dog provides a safe dog walking and pet care service in the New Forest and surrounding villages.

Melissa Hair has been a professional dog walker since 2014, and has her own dog called Buster.

Mel runs Hair of the Dog and is always open to have a chat about your dog’s needs.

Hair of the Dog is:

Fully insured
DBS checked
Canine first aid trained
Experienced in handling dogs
And we will schedule a walk suitable for YOUR dog, whether that be a:

Group walk – only four/six dogs are walked at one time with other socialized, friendly dogs. These group walks are monitored closely.
Solo walk – we provide this service for dogs that are nervous, have aggressive behavior, or just like to run solo.
Half daycare – a great alternative to kennels but only on a half day basis. Your dog will be with us for 4 hours in total, including walking.
Puppy visits/walks:

If you would like your puppy to join in the fun on our group walks but they haven’t had their boosters, or are currently in the process of having them done, this is a great service to start off with. The puppy is left at home and we come round to feed them, change their water, and let them out in the garden or have a short walk until they’re ready and old enough to join the pack.

Pet sitting:

A great alternative if you don’t want to use kennels, we stay at your house when you go away. We will walk your dog either on our group walk, or on its own, whatever suits you and your dog. And we will make sure the dog will not be left for more than 4 – 5 hour intervals, or less this is dependent from dog to dog.

We can also provide a cleaning service whilst staying in your home and can offer references and testimonials.

Prices vary on time of stay

Cat feeding:

Another great alternative to a cattery, we will come in and feed your beloved feline friend as and when required, make sure all cat litter is cleaned out daily. And make a fuss of them of course.
