What is Dog Boarding?
Boarding your dog with Kip means a comfortable room, delicious meals, supervised playtime, and most of all, premium care. Premium care means we have the training, systems and processes in place to monitor the health and wellness of your pet. We even keep you up to date with regular photo and video updates on your dog's holiday.
Kip is by pet owners, for pet owners. We’re committed to reinventing dog boarding because we know that our four-legged friends deserve the best.
Cared for by Our Experienced, Loving Team
At Kip, your dog will be in good hands. Our team of animal carers bring decades of experience to the table and are committed to providing the highest level of care to make every stay a happy stay.
Our company vet is also available to provide veterinary advice throughout your dog’s stay, should the need arise. Additionally, many of our team members are NDTF-certified dog trainers, so they understand dog behaviours and what makes your dog tick.
With locations all around Australia, it’s unsurprising why thousands of Aussie fur families trust Kip.
Dog Boarding Accommodation
We have a number of locations with different types of accommodation and activities to suit your dog’s individual needs. Not only do we have different room types (some examples of what’s on offer can be found below), but we also have different rooming options if your fur baby would prefer to share their room. For details on the accommodation options available in your local area, check out our location page or contact us.
Classic Room Dog Boarding
Example of a Classic Room at Kip Lake Macquarie
Our classic rooms are spacious, comfortable, and furnished with a cosy bed to ensure a restful night’s sleep. Even our largest canine guests have heaps of room to lounge around and stretch out! All rooms are well insulated to ensure a comfortable temperature all year round.
Luxury Dog Boarding Kennels
Example of a Luxury Villa at Kip Hunter Valley
Looking to pamper your pup? They’ll love our Luxury Villas and Suites, available at selected locations. With even more room, a private outdoor grass yard, and extra furnishings, such as a television, they’ll feel right at home!
Extra Dog Boarding Activities for Active Pups
Our locations offer a range of activities that can be added to your stay to ensure your pup has the best stay, every stay. Different locations offer different activities such as bushwalks, social playtime, swims and additional coaching with a trainer. These activities have been designed to provide your dog with more enrichment and stimulation throughout their stay with us.
We also offer a number of services, including the provision of own food and medication, as well as a pick up and drop off transport service at our locations, ensuring that it is as convenient as possible for you.
Extra Playtime
There’s nothing quite like playing outside, so why does the fun have to end? Add some extra playtime to your dog’s stay - they’ll love the extra physical exercise and mental stimulation and be ready for a kip at the end of the day. Extra playtime can be tailored to meet your pup’s individual needs - whether that’s shorter one-on-one sessions or longer group playtime.
Bushwalks
What’s better than the great Aussie outdoors? Now combine that with walkies, and you’ve got one satisfied dog. When you treat your dog to a guided bushwalk, they’ll get the chance to explore new smells and adventures that will make their stay unforgettable!
Treats and Meals
No matter what type of room you choose, meals are included as part of our base room rate, and our guests are fed ROYAL CANIN®. You can also add extra treats or enhancers to make your dog’s stay with us even more enjoyable. One of our most popular options is a Chicken & Rice dinner, or they might like a daily Kong Treat or Pig’s Ear. Different sites will have different treats on offer, so please check your local Kip for what’s available.
We can also accommodate if your dog has any dietary requirements or allergies. Simply let our staff know when you request your stay so we can make sure they don’t eat anything they’re not supposed to.
We supervise all our furry guests during mealtime to prevent any funny business, ensuring your dog doesn’t have access to other foods.
Dog Boarding Transport
Unable to drop your dog off to us for their stay? No worries! We can come and collect them from your front door. Our pet transport service is available from major metro cities to all our boarding locations. Add it to your dog’s stay and enjoy convenience delivered.

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!).
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!
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.
Great place with caring and friendly staff and competitive prices. Our dog absolutely loves it here and we love how they keep us informed with photos and videos through the day, and they also provide feedback when we pick her up.
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 😍
Incredible place that our dog loves. All of the staff are super friendly, we love hearing how our dog went during the day and the pictures we get sent.
My 2 dogs love going to Kip. They have been going for a few months now, and the change in their dog socialisation is amazing. The staff are super friendly and are very knowledgeable with the different breeds. I am sent video clips every visit to see what my furbabies are up to. By the time I pick them up, they are exhausted. Highly recommend.🐾🐾
Our dog was skeptical at first & we were not sure if daycare was for her; but now she absolutely loves it, and so do we! Staff are friendly & professional & communicate well about any issues and good days. We love receiving videos & seeing photos on FB. We also love their Christmas photo shoot.
Hippo loves going to see his friends - people and dogs - at Kip. On arrival, he can't wait to go in, and, at pick up he's happy. The staff organise innovative activities to keep the dogs interested. Kip provides videos and reports about Hippo's day. A friendly and safe environment for dogs with endless opportunities for play and socialisation.
Beautiful dog minding centre filled with beautiful dogs and staff.
Lovely staff & my gorgeous pet sit charge loves his time with his friends
Barry always has a fabulous time at Kip. He's happy when he realises where he is, and sleeps really well after having so much fun. The staff are great too, very friendly and accommodating. Great to know he will be looked after by people who care. I love the photos and video updates too! So great to see him having fun, its very thoughtful to send those updates.
Amazing team, great place for your fur baby to socialise and have fun !
we have an exceptionally small dog and i’ve never been worried about how they look after her. would recommend to anyone
Charlie LOVES daycare! She was driving me a bit crazy at home but now I get 2 days of peace and quiet a week (1 is the day she day she goes and the other is the day after because she is so tired still). I've never seen such a happy little wiggle as when she arrives at KIP. I appreciate the updates and social media pics, as well as the care that the staff seem to take. A very easy 5 out of 5 review from both of us.
our pup, Peppy, loves kip! he is so excited when he realises that we are heading there, has a great time playing with all of his friends and is exhausted the following day!
My dog loves this place and so do I
Thank you for looking after Nala and Dobby as if they were yours! Our energetic kelpies love coming, they are so relaxed and happy to be there. We get updates throughout the day and they always come home exhausted! Can’t fault the people and team from Kip Brunswick! Thanks guys!!!
The crew at Kip are the best. Have been looking after my 4-year-old dog at least once a week since he was a puppy. They're well staffed, take the time to properly assess your dog, don't overload the facility and provide updates during the day. It's obvious how much everyone who works there loves animals and they're also lovely people to deal with in general. Highly recommend to anyone looking for an awesome doggy daycare option.
Staff are fantastic, facilities are good. Wonderful to be able to see through large windows to dog enclosures. Pinda loves coming to play with so many four legged friends. As soon as the car harness comes out she gets so excited for her day.
If you're looking for a top notch day care with a team that cares for your pooch, look no further. The team at Kip are at the top of their game. You'll get constant updates on how your dog is doing throughout the day. An end of day report card will also tell you how they did in detail.
Kip Brunswick is amazing , Nhu has seen my baby grow up from the age of 10+ weeks in puppy school to weekly daycare at the age of over a year old now! My dog is so confident with other dogs and has learned to be calm and composed when the need arises! I am so grateful to the team at Kip! The team is comprised of dog lovers who are experienced with all sorts of dogs! Rest assured that your pup will be in safe and loving hands at Kip!

Incredible place that our dog loves. All of the staff are super friendly, we love hearing how our dog went during the day and the pictures we get sent.
My 2 dogs love going to Kip. They have been going for a few months now, and the change in their dog socialisation is amazing. The staff are super friendly and are very knowledgeable with the different breeds. I am sent video clips every visit to see what my furbabies are up to. By the time I pick them up, they are exhausted. Highly recommend.🐾🐾
Our dog was skeptical at first & we were not sure if daycare was for her; but now she absolutely loves it, and so do we! Staff are friendly & professional & communicate well about any issues and good days. We love receiving videos & seeing photos on FB. We also love their Christmas photo shoot.
Hippo loves going to see his friends - people and dogs - at Kip. On arrival, he can't wait to go in, and, at pick up he's happy. The staff organise innovative activities to keep the dogs interested. Kip provides videos and reports about Hippo's day. A friendly and safe environment for dogs with endless opportunities for play and socialisation.
Beautiful dog minding centre filled with beautiful dogs and staff.
Lovely staff & my gorgeous pet sit charge loves his time with his friends
Barry always has a fabulous time at Kip. He's happy when he realises where he is, and sleeps really well after having so much fun. The staff are great too, very friendly and accommodating. Great to know he will be looked after by people who care. I love the photos and video updates too! So great to see him having fun, its very thoughtful to send those updates.
Amazing team, great place for your fur baby to socialise and have fun !
we have an exceptionally small dog and i’ve never been worried about how they look after her. would recommend to anyone
Charlie LOVES daycare! She was driving me a bit crazy at home but now I get 2 days of peace and quiet a week (1 is the day she day she goes and the other is the day after because she is so tired still). I've never seen such a happy little wiggle as when she arrives at KIP. I appreciate the updates and social media pics, as well as the care that the staff seem to take. A very easy 5 out of 5 review from both of us.
our pup, Peppy, loves kip! he is so excited when he realises that we are heading there, has a great time playing with all of his friends and is exhausted the following day!
My dog loves this place and so do I
Thank you for looking after Nala and Dobby as if they were yours! Our energetic kelpies love coming, they are so relaxed and happy to be there. We get updates throughout the day and they always come home exhausted! Can’t fault the people and team from Kip Brunswick! Thanks guys!!!
The crew at Kip are the best. Have been looking after my 4-year-old dog at least once a week since he was a puppy. They're well staffed, take the time to properly assess your dog, don't overload the facility and provide updates during the day. It's obvious how much everyone who works there loves animals and they're also lovely people to deal with in general. Highly recommend to anyone looking for an awesome doggy daycare option.
Staff are fantastic, facilities are good. Wonderful to be able to see through large windows to dog enclosures. Pinda loves coming to play with so many four legged friends. As soon as the car harness comes out she gets so excited for her day.
If you're looking for a top notch day care with a team that cares for your pooch, look no further. The team at Kip are at the top of their game. You'll get constant updates on how your dog is doing throughout the day. An end of day report card will also tell you how they did in detail.
Kip Brunswick is amazing , Nhu has seen my baby grow up from the age of 10+ weeks in puppy school to weekly daycare at the age of over a year old now! My dog is so confident with other dogs and has learned to be calm and composed when the need arises! I am so grateful to the team at Kip! The team is comprised of dog lovers who are experienced with all sorts of dogs! Rest assured that your pup will be in safe and loving hands at Kip!
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🐾💗

What we do
Dog Boarding FAQ’s
Every Kip dog boarding experience includes a comfortable room, premium dry food, playtime with our animal carers, and regular updates directly to you.
But that's just the bare minimum - you can personalise your dog's stay by adding extra activities, such as bushwalks, extra playtime, or delicious daily treats!
The cost of your dog's stay with Kip will vary depending on a number of factors, including which location you choose, the length of the stay, the number of dogs, and any extras you may want to add.
We offer a range of options to suit different needs and budgets. Please contact us for a personalised quote.
We welcome pet siblings at Kip and are happy to offer a discount at many of our locations for pets from the same family who would like to share a room. Please look at the specific dates and location you require to confirm the pricing for the period.
Absolutely! At Kip, safety is our number 1 priority. Despite having lots of room to roam, our facility is super secure. We perform daily security checks and ensure your pet is supervised for their entire happy stay.
From short, overnight stays to longer holidays, Kip can help look after your dog when you need it.
Our vaccination policy for pet boarding is as follows:
- Vaccination Requirement: Your pet must be vaccinated and the vaccination must be valid for the entire duration of your pet's stay.
- Puppies may board 10 days after their final puppy vaccines as long as they are C5 or equivalent.
- Kittens may board 10 days after their final kitten vaccines as long as they are F3 or equivalent.
- Dogs must have an up-to-date C5 (or equivalent) vaccination.
- Cats must have an up-to-date F3 vaccination.
- 10-Day Rule: If your pet's previous vaccination had lapsed by more than 14 days, the new vaccine must be administered at least 10 days before the check-in date.
- Vaccination Documentation: You are required to provide us with evidence of your pet's current (and immediate prior vaccination if checking in with 10 days of their most recent vaccination)
We are able to care for pets if they're not desexed however, we do not take dogs in heat across our locations. To the extent your dog comes into heat whilst in our care, we will require an emergency contact to pick them up within 24 hours of being notified. We will not accommodate entire males in the same room as undesexed females.
Dogs of all ages and sizes are welcome to join us. We simply ask that they meet the vaccination requirements:
- Puppies may board 10 days after their final puppy vaccines as long as they are C5 or equivalent.
- Dogs must have an up-to-date C5 or better vaccine and an annual Canine Cough vaccination.
Our experienced carers can administer your dog's medication for a small fee. Please let us know if your dog requires any medication at the time of booking, and provide all medication required in the original packaging, along with clear instructions on how and when to administer it. If possible, include extra medication in case their stay needs to be extended.
If your dog is a fussy eater or has dietary requirements, you can bring their own food for a small fee. Please let us know at the time of booking and provide all required food, clearly marked and labelled, along with feeding instructions (if any). Please inform our staff if your dog has any food allergies.
We provide all beds, bedding and enrichment required for your dog's stay. Please reach out to your chosen location directly to discuss personal items.
AWe know being away from your dog can be daunting. Regular photo/video updates are provided directly to your personalised Customer Portal, so you can stay up to date with your dog while you're away.
Absolutely, and we encourage tours before your check-in date! These tours are for you to view the rooms and not an opportunity to bring your dog. Please contact your chosen location directly to organise the best time to tour the premises.
Please note we are unable to accommodate last-minute tours when you drop off your dog.
