Dog Boarding SA

Boarding your dog with Kip is the obvious choice for fur families in South Australia, and we believe that your pet’s boarding experience should mirror the same levels of love and affection they’re used to at home. All of our spaces have been designed with the consideration that each pup has a unique personality and needs, making it a safe, happy environment for all. With a focus on health and safety, you can be sure that your dog is in good hands and receiving tailored care from our experienced carers.

Areas We Service in South Australia

Whether you live in Adelaide CBD or Greater Adelaide, we’re sure there’s a Kip for you! Our pet transport service makes it easy and convenient for you when you’re planning your dog’s overnight stay. We offer door-to-door transport Adelaide-wide so your dog can show up to Kip safe and in style.

Things To Know for Boarding Your Dog in South Australia

Before boarding your dog in South Australia, you’ll need to make sure that your dog is up to date with all their vaccinations (C5 or equivalent) and that a vaccination certificate is presented. We also require your dog to be up-to-date with their flea and tick treatments, as this provides a safe environment for all our guests.

Your dog doesn’t need to be desexed, but we can’t care for dogs in heat. If your dog does come into heat during their stay, we will need someone to collect them from our boarding locations.

If you'd like to visit our South Australia facilities, we kindly request you schedule a tour in advance. We’re unable to offer last-minute tours or arrange them during drop-off to ensure a smooth experience for all our guests.

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!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 🐕💚

Sophie Potts

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!

Maxine Jones

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.

Antz

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.

Tori Darrington

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

P B

Great place! They even do report cards for your dawg I like that they have enrichment activities too.

Simon Stanistreet
