Dog & Cat Microchipping near Crewe

If you're in Crewe and need to get your dog or cat microchipped, Moorsbarrow Hall Farm is your closest professional implanter — just around 10 miles up the A530, a straightforward 15-minute drive through open Cheshire countryside.

Crewe is a busy town with a large pet-owning community, and we see plenty of owners making the short journey to us for both dog and cat microchipping. It's just £10 per chip, with database registration on a DEFRA-compliant database included — far cheaper than most vet practices, with the same professional standard.

Since 2024, microchipping is a legal requirement for cats as well as dogs. Cats must be chipped and registered by 20 weeks old; dogs must be chipped by 8 weeks. If you've recently got a pet or taken on a rescue that hasn't been chipped, it's something to sort without delay — owners without a chipped pet can face a fine of up to £500.

We chip dogs, puppies, cats and kittens. For litters, we can handle a whole group in one appointment — popular with breeders in the Crewe area who prefer a convenient, calm farm setting over a busy vet waiting room. Give us a call or book online and we'll get you sorted.

What to expect

The procedure takes seconds and is no more uncomfortable than a vaccination. We register the chip to you on the day and you leave with everything you need. Appointments are relaxed and unhurried — we're not a high-throughput clinic.
