"Top class service — microchipped my puppy, didn't feel a thing. Can't recommend her enough. Thank you!"
🐾 Carl · Caerau
"Carla has done Marley's scans in both her pregnancies. Both times Marley was reluctant to keep still, but Carla was very patient and professional. Excellent customer service with unbeatable prices! I will definitely use her services again in the future."
🐾 Rebecca & Marley (staff x American bulldog) · St Mellons
"Carla was amazing — it's Dotty's first litter, and she played with her and soothed her during the scan. Put me at ease too. Thank you so much!"

Good to know
Microchipping questions, answered
How much does pet microchipping in Cardiff cost?
We keep pricing simple and affordable. Call or WhatsApp 07821 795342 for a quick, no-obligation quote for microchipping, chip scans or ultrasound.
Does microchipping hurt my pet?
It's very quick — just a small pinch, much like a routine injection. Most pets barely notice, especially with a treat and a cuddle as a distraction, and we always go at your pet's pace.
Do you come to my home?
Yes — Tiny Paws is fully mobile. We microchip and scan pets at your home anywhere in Cardiff and the surrounding South Wales area.
Is microchipping a legal requirement in the UK?
Yes — all dogs in the UK must be microchipped and registered with up-to-date details, and cats must be chipped in England too. For cats and kittens in Wales it's strongly recommended, and it's the best way to get a lost pet home safely. We're DEFRA-compliant and handle the registration paperwork for you.
Can you check my pet's existing microchip?
Of course — we offer quick microchip scans to confirm the chip is working and the registered details are correct.
Do you offer ultrasound scans for pregnant dogs and cats?
Yes — we carry out gentle, non-invasive ultrasound scans at home to confirm pregnancy and check on mum, without a stressful trip out.
At what age can puppies and kittens be microchipped?
Puppies and kittens can be microchipped from 6 weeks old. By law, puppies must be chipped by 8 weeks — before they go to their new homes. We microchip puppies and kittens at home across Cardiff — whole litters welcome in one visit.
