Our high-energy girl always comes home tired, and it gives me peace of mind knowing she is being looked after and having fun while we’re at work.

Don’t Just Take It From Us

Tim McQueen

Lovely place, great staff, happy puppy after his first day care day there.

Holly Lewis

We've sent our dog Derek to Kip Alexandria on days when there's no one at home for extended hours. He loves it! He tries to bash the door down to get inside when we drop him off, he comes home tired from playing all day, he adores the staff there who are absolutely wonderful, and we couldn't trust them more with our pup. Would highly recommend Kip Alexandria!

SCOTT H

Fantastic team. I took my two ex shelter dogs to Kip Alexandria for their first day care experience and the team were so supportive and caring and my girls had an amazing time

Guthriessa Tjiong

The girls threw my son the best doggy birthday pawty here and it was clear he had a blast! Love the updates they sent me on the day and how much they clearly love him. He loves his visits to daycare and always runs through the door

Kim T

We send our Gus here and he loves it. The staff are lovely and you can tell they all love the dogs. They send daily updates and also keep their Instagram really up-to-date so that you can see what your dog gets up to.

We are so Pleased to have found Kip Alexandria our whippet pup loves it and is so happy to see the lovely staff who work there and all her furry friends. Highly recommend !

Sophie Strange

Hands down the best dog daycare. The dogs are so well cared for and have a great structure to their day with activities, fun, rest breaks, and more fun. My dog pulls me through the door when we arrive, and comes home happily exhausted. The staff are brilliant and you can tell the dogs are stoked to be there

Sara Fuller

We love Kip Alexandria!! Our little whippet has been going since she was fully vaccinated and it’s been the best way to socialise her… and teach her a few things. She’s excited to go in and see her friends, and even better to meet them in the park in the weekends. The team is very attentive and get to know each dog in their care, give you a run down on their day and an by challenges, and provide fun updates via email and Instagram. It’s a lovely community 🥰

Premium care, affordable price.

We prefer to work with our customers to find an arrangement that suits them. Get started with a day trial – and if after that you’re loving Kip, talk to one of our local team about a membership that works for you.
