About us

Thamesford Accounting Office

Company History

Thamesford Accounting & Financial Services has been operating in the Thamesford area for over 50 years under the ownership of the Dobbie Family.

The company, started by Ken Dobbie, began as a one-man operation from his personal residence. After working with his father for several years, the business was taken over by Darrell K. Dobbie in the late 1980s.  The business has relocated to a few sites in the area including the old RBC building, and then ultimately to its current location at 136 Dundas St.  In fall 2018, to accommodate our constantly growing clientele and staff, we added a two-story addition to the building.  Our team now consists of Rhianna Goldhawk  CPA, CGA, Darrell K. Dobbie, Dan Mior CPA, and six support people.

The original mandate of Thamesford Accounting & Financial Services continues to be the driving force of our company – “To establish long-term relationships with honesty and integrity, enabling our clients to achieve their financial goals.”

We believe that adherence to this mandate and offering many years of quality services and advice is the reason we have grown from a one-man operation to now, one of the largest employers in Thamesford.

It would be our pleasure to add you to our list of valued clients.
