About Us
We understand how important dogs are in our families, the Colin & Co staff all own dogs and we know how imperative it is for your dog to have the best possible day or stay with us.
Our day care and boarding services are high end, providing only the finest, luxurious environment for dogs - we believe this makes us stand out from everyone else in the dog care industry. We only use the best, ecological products out there on the market and we strive to offer everything with a personalised touch to keep pups and their parents happy.
We pride ourselves on providing you and your dog with the utmost care and comfort during their day and stay. Our ethos is based around enrichment, behaviour and training. Each member of staff has completed relevant courses to enable your dog to keep up their general obedience even when they’re with us. This keeps them engaged and focused throughout the day in between play and nap times.
Safety is our number one priority and we will always strive to provide the best possible care.
Please note our staff members are not behaviourists. They have completed relevant canine first aid, puppy and dog behaviour courses with vigorous on site physical training in order to work at Colin & Co. We sadly cannot fix bad behaviour in one day and sometimes dogs behaviour differs from the park or at home. We will always keep you updated with your dogs behaviour and offer an extra training service with our qualified dog trainers and behavioural work with Ria if needed.
How we got our name
Colin & Co is named after the love of Ria’s life, Colin the dachshund. He was adopted in 2015 followed by the gorgeous Saffy, also a rescue dachshund in 2019. It is Colin’s world – we all just live in it!
She originally created a dog walking business in Kensington which soon turned into training, behavioural work and daycare.
Ria tailored the daycare to how the dogs learn, experience the world around them and what the best is for them and the most convenient for their owners. Colin & Co is very keen on training and enrichment to make sure the dogs get the most of their time at the retreat.

“I am very happy with Colin & Co because it gives me the piece of mind that no matter if Chubby stays for a day or for the holidays he is well looked after. The team is great especially Ria, Kelly and Mandy. The best bit is when you get the pictures of your four legged friends via Whatsapp enjoying their time in the countryside. Thank you for looking after Chubby for the past year.”
