My girls Charlotte & Lola came home so happy. It was their first time away from home so I was extremely anxious leaving them but after receiving the photos and videos this gave me reassurance they were in great hands.

Dog transport at Kip

Door-to-door pickup

We’ll arrive at your door to meet & greet you and your pup. This gives everyone a moment to get used to each other before heading off. This is an important part of what makes a ‘happy stay’ work so well.

Regular pup-dates

Leaving your pet somewhere new can be a bit daunting. That’s why we send video & photo updates throughout the day to let you know how your pup is going – so you’ll know they’re safe and having fun.

Don’t Just Take It From Us

John Robinson

Thanks Kip for again looking after Tilly. She is spoiled and loved. You should be proud of your staff and process. Thanks

Trent Turner

Take brilliant care of pets with nice little updates

Aaron Jupp

10/10 - So far they have been AMAZING! My pet was picked up, and will be dropped off, and I get daily pictures of her with updates. *Only suggestion for them is to perhaps think about putting a camera in the pet room. I say this as today you can "limited share" cameras and it would also allow your pet to hear the owners voice as well as see them. But the daily pictures and blurbs are great too! Very professional and highly recommend

Bradley Huston

Doggies loved it.

Lea Barrett

Jana adores her stays at Kip! The team takes wonderful care of her, making sure she gets to socialise with similar size and temperament dogs and they even keep up our training with her (Jana loves learning new tricks). When we collect her, she's excited to see us but contented and happy after her stay giving us peace of mind that she's well cared for while we're on holiday. And we always get daily updates with photos and videos so we know she's having a good holiday too! Highly recommend.

Clare O'Kane

Love KIP Narangba- we have used them 3 times and they have never let us down - Our dogs love it here and are so happy to go.

Yvonne Simpson

Thanks so much, think it was a good first time experience for both dog and owner. We appreciated the photos and videos as it showed us doggo was coping and enjoying her plays and swims. On collection she seemed relaxed and happy.

Jane Le Busque

We could not be any happier about the stay our two cats had at Kip Brisbane. Each day we received photos and an account of how they were doing, this was really important to us, being able to see that they were alright. We would not hesitate to recommend Kip Brisbane for cat boarding, and this will now be our regular cattery when we need it. The place is very clean and well run by great staff.

Kelsi Carroll

THANK YOU so much the team at Kip Brisbane for looking after our girls. They are true pet lovers, and go above and beyond to make your animals feel safe and cared for! They have outstanding communication, and we love the photo updates! We have tried a different cattery in the area, and the experience was terrible! At Kip, it truly feels like your animals are staying with family. Even through the Cyclone, we were keep updated and I knew our girls where in safe hands! Thanks so much team!

Melology

Genuinely cared about our girl.

Mike O'Keeffe

It was tough leaving our boy for another extended stay (3 weeks) but again we were updated daily with photos/video of him trotting about the yard with other dogs and sometimes alone when it was quiet but always with his tail up. I like that he has his own separate grassy run with neighbouring dogs, so plenty of stimulation, or he can chill inside his enclosure. He (again) settled back home content. Great, easy-going staff, very approachable. We'll be back.

Alana McLean

My dog has stayed at Kip a few times over the past year for short stays and long stays. Every staff member has been very nice and the check in/check out process is usually quick and easy. My dog is not social with other dogs so they give him yard time alone and the daily pics and videos of him running around and having fun with his sitter really puts me at ease. He comes home happy every time he's stayed.

Steve Dias

Truly this is the ONLY boarding kennel we trust to look after our dogs. The staff are genuine dog/cat lovers. The accommodation for the dogs is fantastic. Many options of various activities to keep them happy and engaged (ours love the water park option) as well as healthy dinner options. We also received daily updates via email showing photos and videos. When we pick them up, they have been washed, smell fantastic and are genuinely happy with waggy tails. If you go away on holiday...KIP will make your pets feel like they are on holiday as well. Extremely highly recommended 👍

Taylor Pretty

We have been coming to Kip for 5 years and wouldn't take our dog anywhere else! We were tentative about putting our pup Whiskey in a kennel for the first time after he was adopted from being in the pound the 1st year of his life. The staff were great and continue to be great with his care - Whiskey is so excited to stay at Kip and see his friends, both human and other pups. He always comes back happy and smelling nice! We get to see update photos and videos every day, which helps us enjoy our holiday even more knowing our boy is having his own great holiday. The facilities are nice and we have never had any issues, whether Whiskey has gone in for daycare or stayed for 2 weeks. I couldn't recommend Kip and their staff any higher for taking care of your fur bb while you're away. :) (Happy boy photo from his most recent stay)

Alyssa Argento

I left my cat, Rosie, in the care of Kip Brisbane Cat & Dog Boarding for just over a month during the Christmas/New Year holidays, and the care and love Rosie received exceeded expectations. I received daily updates on Rosie, and although she took a little while to warm up to her carer, you could see how much she enjoyed their company and affection towards the end of her stay. I am beyond happy with the kindness and dedicated care Rosie received and will happily recommend Kip to anyone who needs their pet boarded. Thank you so much for looking after our Rosie, you're amazing.

Leanne Donaldson

Best place, knowing they're are loved just as much you love your dog

Gia Becker

From someone who loves their cat more than anything I have 100% trust in this place. Absolutely incredible, you can feel their care for animals. I called KIP (Manie was incredible) when I was in the carpark of another pet boarding place (horror!) and they took my kitty in with no questions and made me feel so comfortable. The daily videos and updates were amazing too. I could enjoy my holiday with peace of mind my baby was taken care of. 100000% recommend you’d be silly to go somewhere else!! love you guys

Rakshanya

We boarded our dachshund at Kip for two weeks. The process from touring the property to picking up our dog was all very smooth! The staff at Kip reassured us of all the safety measures they have in place and answered all our questions. The daily photo updates of our puppy put our mind to ease. It was our first time boarding our dog and we will definitely be using Kip again if we are away travelling and need a safe and happy place to look after our doggo. Thanks team!

Great knowing our dog loves her second home away from us We have had two stays for more than two weeks each time and our dog gets the most out of her stay. Love Kips highly recommended Nothing to worry about peace of mind to enjoy your time away

Ken Dowling

The updates with photos and videos was fantastic. Made me way less stressful

Richard Garratt

I wouldn’t trust anyone else with our two beagles. We get daily videos and pictures and they come home smelling amazing and ready to sleep for days. I really feel that they would rather be there than anywhere else based on their excitement on arrival. Definitely deserving of a five star review!

Christopher Fairley

We have had our dogs stay here numerous times now with no issues. The staff are super friendly and our dogs are always looked after. We get daily photo updates as part of the service which is always nice while your away. Our dogs always arrive home clean and smelling wonderful! We don't know how we get them so clean!

Joshua Berry

Our Bordie Collie always has a great time and the daily updates give you peace of mind while you are away.

Interested Person

Mia always loves her stays at Kip - I am sure she prefers to be there than at home. The staff are so caring and amazing, I can’t thank them enough!

Sharlene Reimers

Highly recommend. We were anxious to leave our 3 dogs for 4 nights. The staff were amazing. We were sent photos and videos daily. They went for a bush walk and even bathed them before pickup 💖

Alana Bucinelo

That is the only place that i feel comfortable in living my fur baby. The staff are very helpful and they really care about the dogs. Also the whole process since booking and even having to proceed with a cancellation which I have done in the past is simply amazing and straight forward. I could not be happier, my dog always come back soo happy too.. they send update videos, answer all your questions , they also make sure your dog is fit and has all the requirements to be in the resort prior arrival too... This company is super organised and i could just not be happier. thank you Kip

GERALDINE ANN BIRTWISTLE

I was so nervous about dropping my dog in to kennels but from the moment I entered the office at KIP Kurwongbah the experience was just so lovely. The team there were so patient with my very nervous dog and allowed him to respond at his own pace. I loved getting the daily updates and seeing how he was progressing to the point where he was looking for pats by the end of his 5 day stay. He did have a little incident where he hurt himself in his endeavours to escape but the team called me and let me know what he was up to and what he had done and helped ease my mind on his injury. I know what RiLee can be like when he wants to get home so in no way was his injury a result of anything the kennels did but their response to it was amazing and I could not have asked for more. Seeing him come out of there so happy melted my heart and has certainly eased my mind about having to put him in kennels again. I will definitely be using KIP again in the future.

Katalin Varga

Our Billy came home from Kip with a huge smile on his face and he is so much more relaxed and well-behaved, we cannot thank the fantastic Team at Kip enough for that. This was his first stay at Kip, but not the last :) He even made a few new friends (both human and doggy friends). We highly recommend Kip to any pet parent :)

Abraham Cartmill

Daily update photos and videos. So easy to book in and the staff are absolutely amazing.

Noni Burke

So happy with Kip Happy Stays Brisbane. The daily updates are so great. Staff are genuinely caring and kind to your pets and always accomodating. Definitely recommend. We travel an hour to use this service because we trust the care provided. :-)

Sharon Jedra

Every time Hugo stays at Kip Brisbane Pet Resort at Kurwongbah , he comes home with a huge smile on his face! If you find it difficult to leave your fury friend behind, you can be reassured by the pictures showing them having lots of fun. The staff are always friendly and clearly enjoy their work. Would highly recommend Kip to anyone looking for a holiday spot that their dog will love so much that they'll never want to leave

Aleesa Swindlehurst

I cannot recommend Kip Brisbane Pet Resort enough. This was the first boarding experience for our recently rescued greyhound. Since he has had a tricky start around people and other dogs, I was feeling a bit nervous about how he would go. From the start the staff were incredibly reassuring. The photos and videos I received each day showed how patient, warm and loving the staff were towards him. It is clear to see in all the videos and photos he was so happy and relaxed. Not only did he have a great stay he also had an opportunity to develop his confidence around other people and dogs which has gone above my expectations 😊.

Mandi Butland

Great price. Awesome stay for our dog. The video's are such a special treat. The service is outstanding for you and your pet. Very happy to recommend KIP. Will definitely be back.

Jeraldine Graham

First time I’ve boarded my doggo Max. 74kg of loveable Great Dane. Daily updates with messages, photos and videos sure gave me peace of mind. Max came back from 10 days at Kip so relaxed and happy he really must have enjoyed himself. All the staff are such “dog people” who clearly love animals and their job!!!

Claire&Ian Kelly

Thanks for another lovely stay. Bella and Maggie looked so well on their arrival home. Both slept all afternoon ❤️

Ashley Deakes

Exceeded my expectations as this was the first time Iwe had left our new little dog. Staff were so patient and understanding to our needs regarding the anxiety of our small dogs.

Great knowing our dog loves her second home away from us We have had two stays for more than two weeks each time and our dog gets the most out of her stay. Love Kips highly recommended Nothing to worry about peace of mind to enjoy your time away

Ken Dowling

The updates with photos and videos was fantastic. Made me way less stressful

Richard Garratt

I wouldn’t trust anyone else with our two beagles. We get daily videos and pictures and they come home smelling amazing and ready to sleep for days. I really feel that they would rather be there than anywhere else based on their excitement on arrival. Definitely deserving of a five star review!

Christopher Fairley

We have had our dogs stay here numerous times now with no issues. The staff are super friendly and our dogs are always looked after. We get daily photo updates as part of the service which is always nice while your away. Our dogs always arrive home clean and smelling wonderful! We don't know how we get them so clean!

Joshua Berry

Our Bordie Collie always has a great time and the daily updates give you peace of mind while you are away.

Mia always loves her stays at Kip - I am sure she prefers to be there than at home. The staff are so caring and amazing, I can’t thank them enough!

Sharlene Reimers

Highly recommend. We were anxious to leave our 3 dogs for 4 nights. The staff were amazing. We were sent photos and videos daily. They went for a bush walk and even bathed them before pickup 💖

Alana Bucinelo

That is the only place that i feel comfortable in living my fur baby. The staff are very helpful and they really care about the dogs. Also the whole process since booking and even having to proceed with a cancellation which I have done in the past is simply amazing and straight forward. I could not be happier, my dog always come back soo happy too.. they send update videos, answer all your questions , they also make sure your dog is fit and has all the requirements to be in the resort prior arrival too... This company is super organised and i could just not be happier. thank you Kip

I was so nervous about dropping my dog in to kennels but from the moment I entered the office at KIP Kurwongbah the experience was just so lovely. The team there were so patient with my very nervous dog and allowed him to respond at his own pace. I loved getting the daily updates and seeing how he was progressing to the point where he was looking for pats by the end of his 5 day stay. He did have a little incident where he hurt himself in his endeavours to escape but the team called me and let me know what he was up to and what he had done and helped ease my mind on his injury. I know what RiLee can be like when he wants to get home so in no way was his injury a result of anything the kennels did but their response to it was amazing and I could not have asked for more. Seeing him come out of there so happy melted my heart and has certainly eased my mind about having to put him in kennels again. I will definitely be using KIP again in the future.

Our Billy came home from Kip with a huge smile on his face and he is so much more relaxed and well-behaved, we cannot thank the fantastic Team at Kip enough for that. This was his first stay at Kip, but not the last :) He even made a few new friends (both human and doggy friends). We highly recommend Kip to any pet parent :)

Abraham Cartmill

Daily update photos and videos. So easy to book in and the staff are absolutely amazing.

Noni Burke

So happy with Kip Happy Stays Brisbane. The daily updates are so great. Staff are genuinely caring and kind to your pets and always accomodating. Definitely recommend. We travel an hour to use this service because we trust the care provided. :-)

Sharon Jedra

Every time Hugo stays at Kip Brisbane Pet Resort at Kurwongbah , he comes home with a huge smile on his face! If you find it difficult to leave your fury friend behind, you can be reassured by the pictures showing them having lots of fun. The staff are always friendly and clearly enjoy their work. Would highly recommend Kip to anyone looking for a holiday spot that their dog will love so much that they'll never want to leave

Aleesa Swindlehurst

I cannot recommend Kip Brisbane Pet Resort enough. This was the first boarding experience for our recently rescued greyhound. Since he has had a tricky start around people and other dogs, I was feeling a bit nervous about how he would go. From the start the staff were incredibly reassuring. The photos and videos I received each day showed how patient, warm and loving the staff were towards him. It is clear to see in all the videos and photos he was so happy and relaxed. Not only did he have a great stay he also had an opportunity to develop his confidence around other people and dogs which has gone above my expectations 😊.

Mandi Butland

Great price. Awesome stay for our dog. The video's are such a special treat. The service is outstanding for you and your pet. Very happy to recommend KIP. Will definitely be back.

Jeraldine Graham

First time I’ve boarded my doggo Max. 74kg of loveable Great Dane. Daily updates with messages, photos and videos sure gave me peace of mind. Max came back from 10 days at Kip so relaxed and happy he really must have enjoyed himself. All the staff are such “dog people” who clearly love animals and their job!!!

Claire&Ian Kelly

Thanks for another lovely stay. Bella and Maggie looked so well on their arrival home. Both slept all afternoon ❤️
