Why Choose Kip Happy Stays for Dog Daycare in Melbourne?

Dog daycare should be an enriching and enjoyable experience for your furry friend, and not just a place that they tolerate. That’s why all dogs undergo a temperament assessment to ensure that daycare is a good fit for them.

Scheduled rest time is also crucial to ensure all dogs have a chance to wind down and recharge before afternoon playtime. Plus, with regular updates shared through your Customer Portal, you can stay connected and see how your dog’s best friends and how they’re spending their day.
