Canine & Co

Canine & Co Care & accommodation for your canines and felines. At Canine and Co, we wholeheartedly regard animals as cherished members of the family.

Welcome to Canine & Co

We are located in the sunny Eastern Bay of Plenty, 20 kilometers west of Whakatane, near the Awakeri Hot Springs and Holiday Park on State Highway 30. Canine and Co is a dedicated haven for both Canines and Felines where our core philosophy revolves around treating pets with utmost care and respect. We take pride in delivering top-tier care services that encompass mental st

imulation, and we provide ongoing training to guarantee the well-being and happiness of the animals under our watch. We have 50 medium and large dog kennels, with several large grassed exercise areas. Additionally, we have two cottages for small dogs who like company, also with grassed runs. For the feline fanatics, we have a cattery which is completely separate from the dog kennels, providing a more relaxed space, with a sunny outdoor area, completely enclosed and escape proof. Checkout our website to learn more and reserve your pet's stay with us.

Social Club Term 3 Update!

We are currently opening a limited number of new Social Club spaces and booking trial days.

If you have already completed the Social Club questionnaire on our website, you should have received a response from us. If you haven't heard back, please get in touch so we can follow up.

Once these new spaces are filled, it is unlikely we will have any further availability for large dogs in 2026, so we encourage anyone considering joining not to wait too long.

We tend to have more flexibility with our small dog groups, however spaces can still fill quickly, so we recommend reaching out sooner rather than later.

🚌 Home Pick-Up & Drop-Off Service 🚌

We've had a fantastic response to our upcoming home pick-up and drop-off service, which is helping us finalise pricing and open up additional spaces on our Social Club bus.

Frequently Asked Questions…

❓ Will the dogs be on the bus while home pick-ups and drop-offs are being completed?
No. The Social Club bus will continue operating on its normal schedule, while a separate vehicle will be used exclusively for home pick-ups and drop-offs.

❓ Do I need to be home for pick-up and drop-off?
No. This service is designed to make your day as stress-free as possible. You can head off knowing your dog will be safely collected and returned home by a dedicated member of our team.
You'll receive a text message when your dog has been collected and again when they have been dropped home.

❓ Do I need to be home for the first pick-up?
Yes. We will conduct an initial trial pick-up with you and your dog to ensure everyone is comfortable and that our team can safely access your property.

❓ We don't need home pick-ups every week. Can we book them occasionally?
Absolutely. Casual home pick-ups and drop-offs are available, however these must be booked at least 72 hours in advance. Casual bookings are charged at a higher rate as they may fall outside our regular routes.

We are incredibly excited to welcome new members into The Social Club and look forward to sharing more updates about our transport services soon 💛

Introducing Our New Home Pick-Up & Drop-Off Service!

We are excited to formally announce the upcoming launch of our Home Pick-Up & Drop-Off Service, a direct response to the feedback and requests we’ve received from our wonderful clients.
This service will be available to all current and prospective Social Club members, making it easier than ever for your dog to enjoy their Social Club days with us.

✨YOU ASKED AND WE ARE DELIVERING✨

Beginning with our Social Club clients, we will soon be offering a fully managed, door-to-door transport service, removing the need for you to travel to and from our facility.
A flexible alternative to the REX Morpeth bus stop!

We understand that not everyone is able to make the current drop-off time at Rex Morpeth. Our new home pick-up service means that is no longer a barrier.
We come to you at a time that works, so your dog never has to miss out on Social Club.


✨SERVICE AREAS INCLUDE✨

• Ōhope
• Kawerau
• Edgecumbe
• Thornton
• Matatā
• All surrounding and in-between areas

✨SOCIAL CLUB TRANSPORT... HOW IT WORKS✨

Your dog will be collected from your home at an agreed time, transported safely to Social Club, and returned to your door at the end of the day.
Simple, safe, and stress-free.

This service is ideal for:
• Clients unable to make the Rex Morpeth drop-off time
• Busy households and working professionals
• Those without easy access to transport
• Anyone wanting a seamless, worry-free experience for their pet

✨PRICING✨

This is a premium door-to-door service and will be priced accordingly.
Final pricing is currently being confirmed and will vary based on:
• Location
• Frequency of use
• Service requirements
All registered clients will be the first to receive full pricing details once confirmed.
We appreciate your understanding as we work to ensure this service is delivered to the highest possible standard.

✨BOARDING TRANSPORT✨

We will also be extending this transport service to our boarding clients in due course.
Further details will be released as scheduling and availability are confirmed.

✨PLEASE REGISTER YOUR INTEREST✨

We are currently collecting expressions of interest so we can plan transport routes and allocate availability.
To register your interest, send us an email:
Your full name and address
Your dog’s name, breed, and age
Preferred Social Club days
Any relevant notes (gate codes, special requirements, etc.)
Places will be allocated based on demand and location, so we encourage early registration to secure your spot.

Thank you for your continued support! We can’t wait to bring this service directly to your door!
