Kip Happy Stays
Australia's leading provider of pet boarding & daycare
Pet Boarding and Dog Daycare
Reimagined for Aussie fur-families
At Kip, we’re not a traditional dog boarding kennel or cattery. Creating happy staycations and daycare days for your furry friends is what we’re all about.
We know there’s nowhere as special as home, so we strive to make our pet resorts and daycares the next best thing: safe, active and caring places where every paw-sonality is treated as an individual.
With pet boarding and dog daycare locations across Australia, the happiness of your furry family member is our number one priority.

Couldn’t be happier with Kip daycare. My dog loves spending the day there and l know she is cared for. The staff are wonderful.
Brought my dog today for first time was an amazing experience couldn’t recommend more !!!! Staff was so welcoming and helpful
We love bringing our little boy Ananas here—he’s been coming since he was just 3 months old. He absolutely loves spending time making new friends and catching up with his regular buddies. The staff are amazing and always take such great care of him—we’ve never had any issues. Highly recommend Kip!
KIP has been amazing for Ananas. We love taking our boy there every week. He loves it and makes us happy knowing he is in great hands of the lovely staff.
I highly recommend Kip Brunswick. We enrolled our puppy at 16 weeks to help him socialise and learn the basics during this exciting stage. He started out very shy and timid, but by the end of the course we saw a huge improvement in his confidence. The staff are incredibly friendly and clearly know how to cater to different types of dogs, so you can rest assured your pup will be very well looked after regardless of their personality or needs. Each class was well-structured while still being fun for both you and your pup. I would definitely come back again!
Enrolled our puppy to the puppy classes and it was one of the best decisions I've made. The difference to how he was from the first class to the last class was night and day. Our trainer/teacher Nhu is experienced as they come and she took the time to help each pup. With a trainer who is as passionate as she was, I would highly recommend Kip Brunswick as a launchpad that will set your puppy up for success.
Love this place!!! The dogs love going here and the staff are soooo friendly! They know my dogs, their personalities and keen to give honest advice /feedback on how they settled in. I love getting the photos and videos being sent through.
My puppy really loves his playdates at Kip Brunswick. The staff is so caring and loving with him and all the other dogs. Every time we take him to daycare, he's happy and excited. Thank you for taking such good care of Charlie.
Caring lovely staff, my puppy loves it ❤️
Last week, my six-month-old Standard Schnauzer spent the day at Kipp Brunswick, and we couldn’t have been more pleased. From the moment we booked through to collection, the whole process was easy and supportive. All the staff made us feel very welcome, and we were impressed right from the start. When we arrived, all the dogs in the car park were buzzing with excitement, and Lottie quickly joined in—clearly ready to be part of the fun. When we collected her, the staff member, Bree, gave a thorough and thoughtful handover about Lottie’s great day. Lottie looked so happy with herself! We also received a written report and a photo, which was a lovely touch. We are extremely pleased with the staff and the way the centre is set up, and I’m already looking forward to dropping Lottie off again so she can enjoy another brilliant day. Many thanks to the whole team for making Lottie feel so welcome and safe.
I take my pup Howl here every week and he always has the best of times! Everyone that works at Kip does an incredible job and I couldn’t recommend this place any more. Even if you don’t need day care, it’s a great place to socialise your dog which helps with training :)
I'm so happy with how Shay and the team look after my extremely energetic young dog Peko. Peko needs a lot of guidance and the team have managed that so well. I feel relaxed knowing that she is safe there, and that I can have a day off managing the very intense & driven little dog that I adopted. She has the best time ever there and her doggy social skills have come along in leaps and bounds since starting at Kip. Thanks so much!
Wonderful daycare and a delightful team! We have two sausage dogs, our little Subi is generally quite an anxious girl, but she enjoys Kip so much that she gets so excited when we pull into the driveway! Our other saussie, Chase, can barely contain his excitement in the morning when getting out of the car.
Great place with caring and friendly staff who love everything dogs! Our Rhodesian Ridgeback absolutely loves it here and we love how they keep us informed with photos and videos through the day. They also provide feedback when we pick her up.
We have been bringing our new puppy Daphne here since she was first able to and cannot recommend highly enough. She goes 1-2 times a week for daycare and has just finished their 5 week puppy school and both have made such a huge difference in her training & wellbeing. The staff are so friendly, attentive, and you can tell how genuinely they care about every dog they work with. Have to give a special shout out to trainer extraordinaire Nhu who supported us & our extremely rambunctious girl through puppy school with so much patience, kindness & good humour. Daphne knows the way to Kip now and gets so excited when she realises where we're going, adores all of the staff there, always makes new doggie friends, and comes home happy and exhausted (which believe me takes some effort!!). Kip Brunswick are worth every cent and then some
My dog loves this place and the staff.
Hudson loves it, love the updates and insta posts - they also send a Polaroid home of him on his first birthday and dressed him for Halloween! So cute x
Siyah is loving her days there
We take our miniature dachshund Frankie to KIP as often as we can make it. She loves it. When we get there she is dizzy with excitement and when we pick her up she is exhausted from play. The staff are very helpful, friendly and supportive. Frankie has become well socialised at KIP and is now comfortable around all breeds.
The team at Kip has taken such good care of my very energetic and playful golden retriever. His tail wags each morning he arrives, and he doesn't want to leave when I pick him up. They have also been great at monitoring and managing is behavioural "quirks" (e.g. trying to eat his tail!).

This place is paw-fect
Great people, take great care of our Corgi. Very happy with Kip!
The staff here are professional, friendly, helpful and always go the extra mile. Luigi (my labradoodle) and I love this place. It's easy too book and reasonably priced. The staff are truly passionate animal lovers. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! The two managers are amazing and always helping out with any requirements.
I like to believe that our dog is their favorite, but maybe they make everyone feel like that. It's certain that going here is our dogs favorite activity!
Me and my Noodlyhead love Kip Brunswick, thanks for taking such good care of her when I have to go to work... She always has a ball and I love updates of her having a great time!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 🐕💚
Awesome little puppy school and day care ! We took our 10 week old puppy there for school and they treated him so well, we got one on one care and advice and they took the most gorgeous graduation photo!
My border collie cross Olivewas a recent adoption from RSPCA when she had her first stay at Kip Ipswich. She returned to me happy and settled then on her second stay at Kip she greeted staff so enthusiastically that I know I can always count on her being happy there. Thanks Kip for the updates and for taking such good care of Olive.
It actually would of been rude of me, not to write a review!! My mini dachshund goes here, and unlike other schools they do not have the dangerous equipment i was anxious about. The daycare was super friendly, nice, reassuring and patient with my baby... I received a report card on his first day, and in great detail which means they really do not over look anything. You have you own account, and not only receive updates but little personal videos, along with the ones posted on Instagram. Kip is everywhere, and your account is connected, so it is super convenient and i would totally recommend for anyone looking! Thank you!!! x
Good staff. Good service.
Great place! They even do report cards for your dawg I like that they have enrichment activities too.
Great place for your doggo to spend a day when you're otherwise engaged. The staff know their dogs and the service is excellent. Our pup always comes home happily satisfied from a day of activity.
Very professional and knowledgeable staffs. Attentive to each dogs and help to reward good behaviours. Not just a “daycare”
If I could rate higher than 5 stars I would. The team at Kip Brunswick are absolute legends/gems/superstars. You can see & feel how much these individuals love dogs and love their job. My 2 mini schnauzers, Poppy & Merlin, can sometimes be stand offish with other humans, especially after lock down, however at drop off they are excited to see who is there to collect them for their day ahead. They just get everything right: from the viewing window behind reception, the daily video updates you get and the care and compassion shown by every single team member. I will never look at another daycare option. Thank you to awesome team at Kip Happy Stays Brunswick and for the care you give to my beautiful kids 🐾🐾
Our Border Collie was a little shy at first but she absolutely can’t wait to run into daycare now! The team here are so lovely, attentive and caring with our dog and genuinely care about their experience. We continue to send our dog here every couple of weeks and it’s been great for her social skills and development! She comes home exhausted so it’s also been a life saver on the days we have to work later than expected. Can’t recommend Kip enough!
My pet kob started on the 15th of April with kip my experience I got i am very impressed the staff there are very experience due to what i av experience in Kobe behaviour and the clip vodio which is very encouraging. Thanks you great job
Our dog Fig loves going here. The staff are very attentive and friendly with our pup. They're very flexible and cater to the needs of our dog very well.
My Frenchie Jaxon has been going to Kip, Brunswick for only a couple of months. The staff are all so amazing and friendly, they really care about your pet and I love the videos during the day that they send you. Jaxon comes home absolutely exhausted so I know he’s had an awesome time! Thank you Kip, Brunswick you all do such an amazing job of caring for Jaxon and all the other dogs everyday🐾💗
My dog is very happy there. Staff are very friendly. Ticks the boxes.
Our pooches love Kip and the team, definitely a great day out for them providing a heap of mental stimulation and socialisation. Love that they come home exhausted and content 😍

It actually would of been rude of me, not to write a review!! My mini dachshund goes here, and unlike other schools they do not have the dangerous equipment i was anxious about. The daycare was super friendly, nice, reassuring and patient with my baby... I received a report card on his first day, and in great detail which means they really do not over look anything. You have you own account, and not only receive updates but little personal videos, along with the ones posted on Instagram. Kip is everywhere, and your account is connected, so it is super convenient and i would totally recommend for anyone looking! Thank you!!! x
Good staff. Good service.
Great place! They even do report cards for your dawg I like that they have enrichment activities too.
Great place for your doggo to spend a day when you're otherwise engaged. The staff know their dogs and the service is excellent. Our pup always comes home happily satisfied from a day of activity.
Very professional and knowledgeable staffs. Attentive to each dogs and help to reward good behaviours. Not just a “daycare”
If I could rate higher than 5 stars I would. The team at Kip Brunswick are absolute legends/gems/superstars. You can see & feel how much these individuals love dogs and love their job. My 2 mini schnauzers, Poppy & Merlin, can sometimes be stand offish with other humans, especially after lock down, however at drop off they are excited to see who is there to collect them for their day ahead. They just get everything right: from the viewing window behind reception, the daily video updates you get and the care and compassion shown by every single team member. I will never look at another daycare option. Thank you to awesome team at Kip Happy Stays Brunswick and for the care you give to my beautiful kids 🐾🐾
Our Border Collie was a little shy at first but she absolutely can’t wait to run into daycare now! The team here are so lovely, attentive and caring with our dog and genuinely care about their experience. We continue to send our dog here every couple of weeks and it’s been great for her social skills and development! She comes home exhausted so it’s also been a life saver on the days we have to work later than expected. Can’t recommend Kip enough!
My pet kob started on the 15th of April with kip my experience I got i am very impressed the staff there are very experience due to what i av experience in Kobe behaviour and the clip vodio which is very encouraging. Thanks you great job
Our dog Fig loves going here. The staff are very attentive and friendly with our pup. They're very flexible and cater to the needs of our dog very well.
My Frenchie Jaxon has been going to Kip, Brunswick for only a couple of months. The staff are all so amazing and friendly, they really care about your pet and I love the videos during the day that they send you. Jaxon comes home absolutely exhausted so I know he’s had an awesome time! Thank you Kip, Brunswick you all do such an amazing job of caring for Jaxon and all the other dogs everyday🐾💗
My dog is very happy there. Staff are very friendly. Ticks the boxes.
Our pooches love Kip and the team, definitely a great day out for them providing a heap of mental stimulation and socialisation. Love that they come home exhausted and content 😍
The staff are really lovely and fantastic with all of the pets. It's so good for my dog Mav to be able to socialise and get plenty of exercise through the day. He really enjoys his time and days at kip
This place is paw-fect
Great people, take great care of our Corgi. Very happy with Kip!
The staff here are professional, friendly, helpful and always go the extra mile. Luigi (my labradoodle) and I love this place. It's easy too book and reasonably priced. The staff are truly passionate animal lovers. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! The two managers are amazing and always helping out with any requirements.
I like to believe that our dog is their favorite, but maybe they make everyone feel like that. It's certain that going here is our dogs favorite activity!
Me and my Noodlyhead love Kip Brunswick, thanks for taking such good care of her when I have to go to work... She always has a ball and I love updates of her having a great time!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 🐕💚
Awesome little puppy school and day care ! We took our 10 week old puppy there for school and they treated him so well, we got one on one care and advice and they took the most gorgeous graduation photo!

FAQ’s
Pet boarding at Kip includes a lodging facility for your special friend. Kip’s pet boarding facilities are available for dogs and cats of all sizes, providing a high level of care and attention for an overnight or extended stay while you’re away or unable to have your pet at home. Also known as pet hotels, pet resorts, boarding kennels, and catteries, pet boarding is essentially an accommodation solution for your pet and will include a comfortable bed and room, daily meals, plenty of playtime, and best of all - other furry friends for your pet to hang out with.
The main reasons that people choose to use pet boarding services include holidays and vacations, renovations to a property, or short stays while a family moves house or relocates. The advantage of using a boarding kennel over a pet sitter is that your special friend will go to a dedicated location with other dogs and cats, where they will receive the same level of care and attention that they are used to receiving at home.
Doggy day care is exactly what it sounds like – a day care for your dog! For many of us leading busy lives, it can be hard to provide daily walks, socialisation, and constant supervision of our beloved pets. Particularly if you have to go into work every day, it can be hard to make sure your pet is having as much fun at home as they would be if you were able to spend the day with them.
As such, Kip’s day care facilities provide the perfect setting to provide daytime care for dogs of all shapes and sizes. Dog day-care includes morning and afternoon play sessions, quiet time to recharge, tasty treats as rewards throughout the day, and full, constant supervision from our dog-loving day care trainers and experts. You can simply drop off your little friend in the morning on the way to the office, and pick them up once they’re all tuckered out!
At Kip Happy Stays, we have pet boarding facilities across Australia, exclusively providing boarding for dogs and cats. Whether you're after a dog kennel in Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane or anywhere in between - we've got you covered.
Boarding costs vary spending on the length of the stay, type of room, and location/boarding site and will include a play area, meals, and treats, and a spacious sleeping area for your pet to come back to each night. Daily, your pet will receive one-on-one playtime or snuggles with a dedicated Kip team member, and free time with other pets of a similar temperament.
Absolutely! Kip members can benefit from discounts across day care services, retail products, dog training, dog wash services, and transportation services where applicable. If you have more than one pet, you can use your membership for all of your dogs.
Absolutely. Safety is at the core of everything that we do – our primary goal is to ensure that your pet is safe, happy, and comfortable; whether they are staying with us for a day, or an extended holiday.
The Kip team at each pet boarding facility has years of experience in caring for pets all of all shapes and sizes, and will conduct daily health and weight checks to ensure the health of your furry friend. Our network of local vets are always on call, and are available to provide round-the-clock care if required in our pet resorts.
Each boarding kennel has been designed to welcome dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes and ensure they are safe throughout their stay. We encourage every pet parent to visit our accommodation before booking in to inspect the facilities, get their furry friend to feel comfortable in the space, and have confidence in Kip’s ability to provide the same level of care received at home.
Yes! If your pet has specific food they need to have, or is on medication, we can make sure they stick to these parameters while boarding at Kip.
For medication administration, simply pack your pet’s medication in a well-labelled container and let our helpful boarding team know. We’ll carefully care for and administer all medicine as per the vet’s instructions. We charge a small fee for the preparation and administration of medication for pets under our care.
For dietary requirements, you are more than welcome to pack your pet’s own food if you’d like. We provide only the highest quality, premium cuisines for dogs and cats as part of the service, but understand if you’d like to stick to the same diet. If you do choose to bring your own food, please ensure it’s well labelled and note that we will charge a small fee.
