With multiple tail-waggin' locations across Queensland and a nationwide reputation for paw-some stays, we make every visit feel like a doggy holiday. (Suitcase filled with their favourite toys? Optional).

Why Choose Kip for Dog Boarding in Brisbane?
Here’s the thing about Kip: we’re not just a dog boarding kennel. We’re a place your furry friends actually love to visit.
Our team is packed with true dog people. Some are NDTF-certified trainers, all are experts in keeping tails wagging and paws happy. Our modern digs are built for both zoomies and zzz’s, with plenty of play space, comfy rest areas and a company vet on call for good measure.
With years of experience, industry awards and 5-star reviews from pet parents who “couldn’t be happier”, we’ve built a nationwide reputation for turning dog boarding in Brisbane into something special.
Our Brisbane Boarding Facilities & Daily Routine
Think of Kip’s dog boarding like a resort built just for pups, minus the tiny cocktails with umbrellas (we’re working on it). Each location offers safe, comfy rooms to snooze, stretch, and relax, plus outdoor zones to sniff, stroll and socialise.
Where they stay
- Comfortable rooms: secure hideaways with soft bedding for the low-key loungers.
- Luxury suites: spacious digs with air-con and private yards for our VIPs (Very Important Pups), available at select locations.
- Bushwalks and grassy play yards: leafy paths or secure yards, perfect for sniffing every … single … blade … of grass.
- Shaded rest spots: great for dramatic sploots when the Queensland sun’s doing its thing.
What their day looks like
- Wake-up call: a quick welfare check to make sure every pup is happy and healthy after a good night's sleep (and a few ear scratches).
- Ease into the day: a little downtime to stretch and settle before the fun kicks in.
- Morning adventures: Time for play in our grassy yards to sniff up all those new smells.
- Lunch break, Kip-style: Fill up those hungry tummies after a morning of fun and refuel for the afternoon.
- Afternoon antics: extra play sessions or bushwalks for pups who just can’t get enough.
- Evening wind-down: one last welfare check, a few bedtime pats and lights out in a fresh, comfy room, ready for a night of tail-wag-worthy dreams.
Baths, health checks and weigh-ins can sometimes pop up throughout their stay. They’re quick, fuss-free and might even include a sneaky treat for good behaviour. And because every holiday deserves a postcard, we’ll send you photo or video updates so you can see exactly what they’ve been up to.

Our dog boarding locations are dotted across South East Queensland, with easy access from areas like North Brisbane, the Sunshine Coast, Ipswich and surrounds. Whether you're near Caboolture, Indooroopilly, Imbil or Caloundra, there’s a Kip nearby ready to welcome your dog for their stay.
With door-to-door transport available across much of Brisbane, it’s easy to plan your trip knowing your dog is heading off on one of their own.

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
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.

No worries. Our trained team can administer medications and follow any routines you provide. Just include as much detail as possible when making your booking so we can get it right from day one and avoid extra back-and-forth later.
