About Us

Founded in 2021, King’s Dog Daycare began with a simple idea: to create a warm, welcoming space where dogs and their owners could relax, connect, and feel at home in the heart of Chelsea.

We’re Nick and Charlie, lifelong dog lovers who grew up with dogs always close by. After moving to London, we realised how much we missed the everyday joy they bring, and caring for local pups felt like the perfect way to bring that back into our lives. What started as a small passion project quickly grew thanks to the support of our community. With our savings, a lot of hard work, and the help of our Chow Chow, King Louie, King’s Dog Daycare came to life.

From the beginning, we wanted King’s to feel like a genuine home away from home — not just for dogs, but for their owners too. Over time, many of our clients have become friends, with people staying for coffee, conversations, and a sense of community that means a lot to us.

A lovely turning point came when a beautiful Pomeranian visited us for grooming. During a chat, the owner mentioned he’d recently welcomed a litter, including a little sass pot in the form of a Lilac Merle pup. One look, and we fell head over paws. Enter Lyra.

Seeing how much happiness King Louie and Lyra brought to both us and our visitors inspired us to create Pet-A-Pooch — a chance for people to spend time cuddling, playing, and connecting with our daycare dogs. It’s something we’re incredibly proud to offer, and it wouldn’t exist without the trust and support of our wonderful clients and their dogs.

In 2024, we reached another exciting milestone and moved from 173 to 177 Fulham Road. The larger space means we can welcome even more of Chelsea’s dogs, and we’re so excited for what’s ahead.

Thank you for being part of our story so far. We’re incredibly grateful for the community that’s grown around King’s, and we can’t wait to welcome many more dogs — and people — through our doors.

Nick, Charlie, King Louie & Lyra
