We put our German Shepherd Xena into Kip and the initial training with Kip has set us up and we have been going back for follow up sessions. Thanks to Janet and Annabelle who clearly love what they do and who see the potential for Xena to be her best self.

Don’t Just Take It From Us

Jason Sleeman

Kip Canberra is fantastic. Our dog is always happy to go there and when we go to collect her, she always washed, happy and healthy. All the carers do a great job of looking after your puppy.

Gene Elliott

Olaf had a great time and was well looked after.

Eleanor Cotterell

We put our German Shepherd Xena into Kip board and train due to reactivity issues. We still have a long way to go but the initial training with Kip has set us up and we have been going back for follow up sessions. Thanks to Janet and Annabelle who clearly love what they do and who see the potential for Xena to be her best self

Ann Steele

My dog was very content

Cindy Chawner

Picked up Maxxy yesterday after a boarding and training stay. The training he received was awesome and I feel it’s set us up for long term success. We go back next week for a follow up training session and I know I can reach out to the trainers any time. I’m really happy and excited to continue learning with Maxxy and the Kip trainers.

Clare

I have been bringing my cat to Kip since he was a kitten, he always comes home happy, not stressed and at a healthy weight. The staff treat each animal like they are their own. We will always keep coming back.

Coralie Dass

It is so rewarding to be able to leave Harley at Kip Canberra knowing he is safe and being loved on by the staff there. Would happily leave Harley with them again. And I have a stress free holiday with pup updates too

tony smith

Our Bittany Spaniel, Lucy, had her first stay at Kip Canberra over the new year and to say we were impressed is an understatement. The staff are amazing and I highly recommend to anyone who is uncertain of where to board their pooch. Brilliant!!!
