Colby's Dogcare and Spa

I recently scheduled my first grooming at Colby’s for my 6 year old bichon mix. Autum did a wonderful job and pup seemed to have a good experience. I also signed up for the daycare a while back and would consider signing up again. Will be returning

I cannot say enough good things about Colby’s! We adopted a very timid and fearful puppy in November of 2024 and took her to Colby’s for the first time in February 2025. She can be fearful of new people so her first day was a little rough and had to be picked up for showing signs of fear aggression. We thought that would mean she couldn’t come back, but Colby’s worked with us on finding less busy days to bring her initially and other ways to ease her into the experience. Now in June 2025 she LOVES it there. She’s still so scared of people outside of her parents EXCEPT for Colby’s. She is literally just as excited to see every employee there as she is to see us. They easily could have turned her away or deemed her not the right fit, but they were so patient, kind, and transparent in communication. I would highly recommend!

I had the joy of meeting the staff and touring the facility at Colby's yesterday for my pup's assessment to enjoy future stays and visits. From the start, you feel welcome and you know that the staff and the entire team really care about each and every dog. I especially want to thank Autumn, Katarina, Kai, and Marc for their help and support. In addition to the great team at Colby's, the facility is extremely organized, clean, and designed in a way to ensure each dog has a great experience during the day and during overnight stays. When I picked up my pup, he had clearly had a great time, was tired from all of the fun playtime he had, and felt loved every minute he was there. We will definitely be visiting Colby's again soon!

Colby’s is absolutely amazing. We have been taking our dog here for daycare for several months now. Quinn is a rescue with separation anxiety, but the staff at Colby’s has always been understanding and kind. They understand she needs some extra time to warm up. I think daycare has also helped with her anxiety and gives her the chance to socialize with dogs which she always loves! I really like that they have play rooms by dog size, Quinn typically likes dogs her size or smaller to play with, but they have also given her a chance to explore different rooms to see where her best fit is. The facilities are clean and I like that I can see where Quinn will be during the day. I am always impressed with the staff, they all seem skilled and knowledgeable about dogs which makes me feel great about having Quinn in their care throughout the day. I highly recommend for anyone who needs consistent daycare for their dog. We originally started with a membership but our schedules frequently shift so we typically schedule as needed which usually works out just fine. The memberships are a great option if you need a consistent schedule throughout the month. I have tried several different daycares in the area and Colby’s is by far the best in terms of price, staff, and everything they offer!

Colby’s Dog Care and Spa is hands down the best dog care in the DC area. Every single time I bring my dog in, she’s treated with so much care and attention, and it’s clear how much the staff genuinely love what they do. I always feel totally confident leaving her there. Today was a great example of why I love this place so much! Colby’s not only takes wonderful care of my dog, but Andrew and Ellie also took the extra steps to help me out in the cold today, which was incredibly kind and thoughtful. It really says a lot about the people who work here. The entire team is consistently warm, patient, and attentive, and I truly wouldn’t trust anyone else with my pet. I’m so grateful to have found Colby’s.

Colby's Dogcare and Spa takes outstanding care of my Ms. Belle. The level of attention and detail and knowledge of my little dog is amazing. Their familiarity with the dogs history, inclduing medical history and how they execute each and every time my dog is placed in their care receives top priority treatment. They treat Ms. Belle like she is their own. I thoroughly appreciate the "personal care" the attention and affection and of course consideration always given. Colby's Dogcare and Spa gives me the level of comfort needed to delegate care when Ms. Belle is in residence.

I love Colby’s! They always take such good care of my dog. Today, I accidentally scheduled a shampoo and bath for my dog when I meant to schedule a haircut. When I realized my mistake, I let Andrew know. He told me haircuts were booked through March but he would do his best to make it happen. He kept my expectations realistic but ensured me he’d do his best to work with the groomer and meet my request. Not only did Maurice, the groomer, make time for a trim, but he did an excellent job. Kat was very kind at checkout and the entire team made me feel like they had my dogs best interest and truly care about customer service.
