Things To Know for Dog Daycare in Victoria

Before your dog becomes a regular daycare attendee, they will come in for a First Day Trial to ensure they are comfortable and the daycare environment is suitable for them.

Every dog has a unique personality, so we assess them to ensure they are receiving the right level of enrichment during their time with us.

For the safety and health of all dogs, your dog must be vaccinated (C5 or equivalent) and desexed by 12 months. Dogs can attend their First Day Trial 10 days after receiving their second vaccination (C5 or equivalent).

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.

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

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

For your dog to attend daycare, they must have:

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

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

Daycare is often an enriching experience for majority of dogs, but we do find that sometimes the environment can be too stimulating for your dog.

That’s why we have our First Day Trial to determine if your dog will have a good time at Kip, and we will not recommend continued daycare for any dogs showing high levels of stress in the environment.
