Dog Daycare Hobart

Tails up, tongues out! There’s a new top spot in town for good dogs on the go.

Every day is an adventure when your pup’s home away from home is at our dog daycare in Hobart. The forecast? 100% chance of zoomies, cuddle puddles, and mid-morning snack attacks.

This isn’t just a drop-and-run spot. It’s a boopster haven full of enrichment, safe spaces, and so much pup-approved fun, even the squeaky toys need a break.

Happy dog at Kip Dog Daycare at Hobart, TAS

Why Hobart Dogs (and Their People) Love Kip Daycare

Imagine a place where dogs can run wild for hours on end with their furry friends, stop, drop and nap whenever they please, and soak up more pats than they know what to do with. That’s the slice of paradise we’ve created at Kip’s dog daycare in Hobart. 

But it’s not all chaos and cute faces. We do sneak in a few lessons along the way. 

With qualified bark rangers and dog-first playgroups, our Hobart dog daycare brings structure into the mix. It’s the routine dogs crave and the love you want to give them when you can’t be there.

And don’t worry, you won’t miss out. We’ll be sure to send pupdates throughout the day, so even if you’re stuck in back-to-backs, you’ll still get a glimpse of your dog living their best life.

What to Expect from a Day at Kip Hobart

From the moment your pup struts into Kip’s dog daycare in Hobart, the fun kicks off (and honestly, you might end up wishing you could stay, too).

Here’s what their day looks like:

  • Morning drop-off: greeted with nose boops, paw shakes and a quick once-over to make sure they’re good to see their friends
  • Health checks: a quick once-over from the team to make sure everyone’s feeling their best
  • Mid-morning fun: filled with fun in the play yards and a rotation of enrichment activities to keep things interesting
  • Rest and recharge: all that play is hard work. Lock in those Z’s before round two!
  • Arvo play: lighter games and relaxed fun as the afternoon slows down
  • Home time: hearts full, paws tired, and another happy day at Kip comes to a close

Customised Daycare for Every Pup Personality

Some dogs are serial nappers, some don’t even know what an “off switch” means, and a few just need a lil extra TLC to feel at ease. Every kind of pup is welcome at Kip’s dog daycare in Hobart, from zippy minis to gentle giants.

Our groups are a sight to see: full throttle one minute, snoozing in a cuddle pile the next. Our chillers get their own peaceful corner for snaps and slow-play sessions, while the supercharged crew burn off steam in supervised zoomie zones. No matter their mood or tempo, our qualified trainers and dog-devoted team keep things safe, structured and full of tail-wagging good times.

Dog Daycare Pricing & Inclusions – Hobart

All of Kip’s Hobart dog daycares are packed with pats, pals and peace of mind. Here’s what your pup can expect at the pawty:

  • Brain games that turn playtime into a mini adventure
  • Crew hangouts matched by energy, size and preferred zoomie style
  • Snooze zones for the serial nappers
  • Non-stop pats and supervision from Hobart’s most dog-obsessed humans

We know every family has their own schedule, which is why we've got flexible pricing options! Whether you're a weekly warrior or want to come and go as you please, we'll make sure your pup has the best time no matter what.

Conveniently Located for Hobart Dog Parents

We have a daycare smack-bang in the sweet spots for pups (and pawrents) across the city. Sandy Bay snoots, New Town sniffers, Kingston cuddle bugs and Lenah Valley zoomers can all wag their way to their local Kip doggy daycare in Hobart for endless hours of sniffing fun. 

We know mornings can feel like herding chihuahuas on espresso, so we’ve made drop-offs, parking, and public transport easy. City workers love it too: you head into the office, they head to play, and by knock-off, you’ve got one happily exhausted pup waiting at the door.

Denise Ethell

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.

Dale Pickering

Brought my dog today for first time was an amazing experience couldn’t recommend more !!!! Staff was so welcoming and helpful

Giulio Falleti

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!

Cara Scicluna

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.

Wendy

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!

Danny Nguyen

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.

Erin Hill

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.

Valentina Angeloni

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 ❤️

Jenny Robinson

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.

Oliver Thomas

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 :)

Sarah B

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!

Pimpisa Petchsud

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.

Antz

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.

Bridge Truell

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

Cameron Selkrig

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.

Guy Campbell

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

Ben Elliot

Great people, take great care of our Corgi. Very happy with Kip!

Mariella Lirosi

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.

Andrew Burrow

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!

Tamara Swift

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.

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

屹瀛宋

Good staff. Good service.

P B

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

Simon Stanistreet

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.

Fellicia Stanzah

Very professional and knowledgeable staffs. Attentive to each dogs and help to reward good behaviours. Not just a “daycare”

Noremac Lleb

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 🐾🐾

Shannon White

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 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🐾💗

Jiuliana McKenzie

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 😍

Mac Jones

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

Ben Elliot

Great people, take great care of our Corgi. Very happy with Kip!

Mariella Lirosi

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.

Andrew Burrow

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!

Tamara Swift

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.

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

Simon Stanistreet

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 🐾🐾

Frequently Asked Questions

For your dog to attend daycare, they must have:

  • Dogs and puppies can attend 10 days after their second C5 vaccine (or equivalent).
  • An up-to-date vaccination certificate must be uploaded into your Customer Portal.

Yes, dogs over 12 months old must be desexed. We cannot accept dogs in heat. If your dog comes into heat during daycare, we will notify you to arrange a prompt pick-up.

Kip welcomes dogs of all breeds and sizes, provided they are desexed and meet our vaccination requirements. A trial day is recommended to assess if the daycare environment suits your dog's temperament.

A whole lot of tail wags! Okay, seriously, your pup will get energy-matched playgroups, naps on the plushest beds, trainer-led games, cuddles on tap and constant crew supervision, while you score regular pupdates so you don’t miss out on the fun.

With Kip’s dog daycare in Hobart, it is. We balance out our little legends into groups of their own vibe, so everybody gets their kind of fun, even our shy or small puppers.

We don’t just offer trial runs for our Hobart dog daycare; we recommend it to make sure it’s the right fit!

Unlike the school run, we open early for drop-offs and keep the doors open until after work, so it’s easy in and out with no rushing.

Of course! We even have multi-day packages to get your pup in a routine, and you save a few bones.

Get Your Pup on the Guestlist 

Workdays don’t have to be ruff. Book your pup’s spot at Kip’s dog daycare in Hobart and let your dog live their wildest zoomie dreams.
