Every dog is different. Our trainers will listen, assess, and recommend the right path forward for you and your dog.
Whether you've just brought a new dog home or you've been working through a behaviour for months, knowing where to start isn't always obvious. At Kip, our trainers take the time to understand your dog, your lifestyle, and your goals before recommending anything. The first step is simply a conversation.

Thanks so much to a Georgia and the stay and train team! Our beautiful, big red cattle x Sadie is so much happier, confident and .. obedient! since beginning her training with you. We love your kind, patient and supportive approach with our girl.

What makes Kip different?
Trained Professionals. Tailored Guidance.
Our Most Popular Training Program for Reactivity
The board and train program is the perfect program to help fix your dogs reactivity and aggression problems!
Board & Train
From $149/day
Designed for dogs with more complex behaviour challenges.
Your dog stays with us for 2-3 weeks and works closely with our trainers each day to build better habits, confidence, and control. This is ideal for dogs struggling with reactivity, anxiety, or more difficult behaviours that need consistent, hands-on support.
We’ll keep you updated throughout the stay and guide you through everything at handover so you feel confident continuing at home.
Behaviour examples that may be addressed:
- Reactivity (dogs or people)
- Anxiety or low confidence
- Pulling or difficult walks
- Over-arousal or poor impulse control
Our trainers will guide you on the most suitable program and length. Some behaviours require additional time (25-30 days) to work through effectively.
How to Get Started
Don’t Just Take It From Us
Louis loves every single one of his stays at Kip Dandenong / South East. Every time we arrive his tail starts wagging! The staff have looked after him so well over the past few years, which I’m incredibly grateful for. Every day I receive a fantastic pic or video update of his smiley face, playing with the staff - which makes me feel so comfortable and happy each time I’m away knowing he’s having a great time and in good care. The best!! Thank you Kip Dandenong
Thank you to all the amazing and very caring Kip Team @ Kip South East. We really appreciated the cuddles, time spent and attention for little Bailey! Highly recommend! 😇🙌👏😎
Bowie always loves going for his little holidays at Kip
We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Kip, and want to extend our endless gratitude to Alex! Our one year old German Shepherd, Roo, went into the 21-day board and train program as a strong leash puller and she really didn’t know how to behave around other dogs - the transformation has been incredible. Alex was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. She kept us in the loop with daily pup-date photos and videos, as well as detailed weekly progress emails, which made us feel so confident and reassured throughout the whole process. Being overseas at the time, it was so reassuring to know how much care and attention Roo was receiving every single day. One thing we really appreciated was how clearly and simply Alex explained everything to us. She took the time to show us practical ways to better manage Roo’s energy, and how to positively redirect her attention when she gets distracted. It made such a difference having guidance that was easy to understand and actually achievable in day-to-day life. The biggest testament to Alex’s work? Roo LOVED her time there and obviously adored Alex. When we returned for our follow-up session two weeks later, Roo was beyond excited to see her again — which says everything about the positive, supportive environment she created. We now feel so much more equipped and confident to continue Roo’s training at home and keep her moving in the right direction. A huge thank you to Alex and the entire Kip team for all your hard work, dedication, and genuine care. We’re so grateful!
I love this place, it’s been an absolute god send for my husband and I for when we plan our holidays. They were absolutely brilliant with my old girl who we unfortunately lost last year… when I had to inform them of a cancellation due to them passing… I’ll never forget the considerate and caring email they sent me…and they continue to provide brilliant care of my other fur baby. I tell everyone I can about these guys, great/clear communication, friendly service and fairly priced for the services they offer. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you guys! Can’t express it enough!!!
I've had my old ginger cat, Ruby, stay at Kip Melbourne South East 3 times now and she seems to love the experience. The staff take wonderful care of her. They send me regular updates and photos of her relaxing and playing. I can't recommend them highly enough.
Firstly thank you to the whole team. Moby came in was very reactive and we needed a better understanding on how to control certain situations...we went on holiday forn3 weeks and sent him to the 3week program. Alex was his trainer who was just amazing, we got photos and videos everyday and updates once a week. We came back to seeing moby being in close distances to other dogs and learnt more on how to make Moby a happier dog. They know what they doing , just trust thr process. So Thank you from Moby and his parents
Nala enjoyed a weeks stay at Kips Dandenong.
Staff always great they also take great care of my dog. She's been there 4 ti.es now and each time comes out happy and well cared for. Highly recommend them
As a loyal customer, Arthur thoroughly enjoyed another 15-day stay at Kip Melbourne South East. Meg is an amazing trainer who provides excellent care and training for Arthur-I can truly see how happy he is when he’s with her. Thank you again to Kip Melbourne South East, and special thanks to Meg and Jules for your consistent kindness and professionalism. We’re already planning Arthur’s next stay! Cheers, Lydia
Murphy stayed for a 3 week board and train. He came home a different dog. Murphy is a 10 month old German Shepherd, who had a rough start in life. An injury led to elbow issues and he needed surgery. Crated for 6 weeks. He was behind on his training, socialization and was very reactive. He is also a prized show dog, wining every category he entered prior to the injury. So I was definitely the over protected show dog mum. Meg understood, she listened and accommodated my every request. Murphys care was extensive, one training session a day, then a physio session a day. His own food and multiple supplements. HIs care was complex. I received daily updates, when he had a tummy upset (completely normal when dogs are in a new environment), I received a message whilst i was overseas. It was we can give him probiotics (at no charge). We decide to change him onto his own dry food and see how it goes for a day. I was advised things settled. At handover we spent 2 hours TEACHING ME, how to handle Murphy. The marks, the que''s etc. Meg was patient and let me practice until i felt i was comfortable. i have own a lot of big dogs, and been to a lot of boarding kennels in my day , - BUT THIS IS A STAND OUT. German Shepherd parents are over the top at the best of times, and yes they are all our babies. I AM NOT GOING ANYWHERE ELSE EVER! THE 3 HOURS DRIVE IS WORTH MY DOGS HEALTH, CARE AND HAPPINESS. I would give Meg 10stars. ********************************** We have now settled in back at home. Everyone cannot believe how good he is now on loose lead, healing and generally paying attention. We are working hard to keep his good habits up and US HOOMANS NOW UNDERSTAND, it is us that create a GOOD DOG, by being consistent and disciplined. A good pack leader. We use the training sheets to ensure Murphy gets his walls, training and physio daily - it has really helped us stay on track. I am very grateful I found this place. Andrea Guy
Lovely staff who genuinely care about animals.
Our dog, Nala, has always been a Kip girlie. She's attended Kip Blackburn and Kip Bayswater for day care every single week, and attended Kip Melbourne SE on multiple occasions. Every single time, she has come back happy and healthy. Kip does an amazing job keeping us updated through their portal. They also communicated proactively with any concerns they had about Nala's health and wellbeing. She socialised with many different dogs throughout her stay and was able to eat her special diet as requested without any dramas. Although Kip does end up being a bit more expensive, it is definitely worth it.
Kip is fantastic! We have a very anxious dog and they take the best care of her, she loves it there! Thanks guys!
Very appreciative of the daily photos and the report card was awesome.
Super friendly and professional pet resort. I love the daily updates of photos and videos. My anxious rescue dog always goes there when I travel. It gives her stability to go to the same place. I know that, when I go pick her up, she has just been bathed, ready to head home. Report card in paw! Thank you for taking such good care of my Telly.
Great cat boarding, all care, daily photos/video emailed daily. reasonable feed
Excellent place for board my puppies.
We had a Great experience with KIP Dog Training. The trainers are friendly, professional, and really know their stuff. We saw positive changes in our dog very quickly and felt well supported throughout. Highly recommend! 🐾

We had a Great experience with KIP Dog Training. The trainers are friendly, professional, and really know their stuff. We saw positive changes in our dog very quickly and felt well supported throughout. Highly recommend! 🐾
Was nervous about putting our little guy in a boarding place for the first time, but Kip really gave us peace of mind with their great communication and daily pics and videos. Enabled us to really enjoy our holiday in the knowledge our guy was being cared for!
A superb place for our pets to stay. Very responsive, pet carers were engaging, great daily updates easily accessible online, many options available during their stay and importantly health and safety of our pets were their highest priority. Highly recommended.
Our whole family is planning a New Year's vacation, so we needed to board our dog. We found this place had high ratings on Google, so we signed up for a two-week boarding and training program. During this time, our dog received excellent care. The trainer, Megan, trained our dog daily according to its behavior and habits. She was loving and experienced, updating us on the dog's day and patiently answering my questions. During the final handover, she patiently and meticulously explained the dog's characteristics and training results, personally guiding us on how to proceed. I gained a lot of valuable experience. I would definitely choose this place again if needed in the future.
Very impressed with Kip Dandenong. They went over and above with the best service. One of our dogs needed vet assistance and the guys at Kip kept us informed at all times. Excellent customer service and excellent care for our dogs.
I’ve had my dog stay here multiple times and they’re awesome to deal with. They provide quality rooms and care for the dogs. They send photos and updates everyday so you know our pet is safe and looked after while you’re away. Highly recommend!
My two dogs attended the board and train 21 days and I am so impressed by the results and experience. Both dogs are now loose lead walking and are more confident than ever. The best part for me is seeing my dog Ruby wagging her tail on walks instead of in between her legs, it has been such an incredible transformation. Meg and Megan were attentive and sensitive to the the dogs needs as well as offering expert advice and delivering exceptional training. I am so happy my dogs were well looked after and shown a lot of love. Thank you Kip, we will see you again! ❤️
I’m so happy we decided to move our very fussy and unsociable boys to Kip Melbourne South East. The staff are very friendly and professional and always provide photos of our boys during their play time. Thank you for looking after our little ones - I no longer feel guilty going on holidays as I know they will be well looked after. (Patch and Buddy say thanks as well)
Loki had so much fun with the other dogs and was well cared for. They sent lovely photos of him and kept me updated
We had our boy in the kennel for board and training. They took great care of him and he learned some great manners while he was there. We loved the daily videos and/or photos of our boy. He looked very happy which made us feel better about having to leave him.
Just want to extend a massive thank you to Meg and the crew at Kip, my German Shepherd Rambo did the board and train program and has vastly improved holistically. Meg set new foundations building upon his current level of understanding. Didn’t expect to get a perfect dog from this, but the foundations that were set ensured Rambo was set up for success!
Looks after our two dogs so so well - always so so friendly and will always choose them for our training or boarding needs! Love love love the photo updates as get the make sure our dogs are loving their time there
Able to help us at short notice and took great care of our border collie. Emailed us daily photos to keep us informed.
I would like to thank all staff for caring for a very nervous cat. He has settled in well back home.
It is a relief to be able to take a holiday in the knowledge that your best mate will be well cared for and will come home fit and happy. Tango has just enjoyed his second stay at Kip and seems all the better for his happy holiday.
We don’t trust our loved ones with anyone other than Kip. They are organised and live animals. I can’t ask for more than that. The photo updates and wonderful report card we get at the end of the stay are the cherries on top.
Thankyou SO MUCH for the update on our pets. It was the best thing that happened to us today, seeing them safe turned a gloomy day bright. Ur an amazing organisation and we can't express our gratitude to you enough for saving them from animal abuse. Bless you and all your staff.... 🪷🙏🪷
Napoleon had been with this boarding kennel for many years while we went away ！He really enjoyed stay with them and we had happy dog coming back home ! I recommend this boarding kennel strongly to everyone who needs animal boarding service!👍
Our dog was with Kip for 3 weeks doing the Board and Training course, with particular emphasis on his recall. He was well looked after, with regular updates and photos. We would strongly recommend Kip (and Megan). Our dog has shown substantial improvement, and we look forward to continuing the training.
We needed help. We had no recall and little control over Henry, our two year old Great Dane. Although playful, his size made him potentially dangerous. And after a minor altercation with another dog, we signed up with Kip. Henry completed a three week intensive training course. The staff were amazing! Big shout out to Meg. She kept us up to date with photos, videos and emails on his training and well being. We completed an online course at the same time, to help us get a better understanding of Henry’s body language and behaviour, and how to successfully manage it. At the hand over sessions, we worked through all the new commands with Meg. We dropped off a mischievous giant doofus, who trampled everything in his excitement. And we brought home a mischievous giant doofus, that listens to us and comes when he’s called. Training is an on going process and fun. Highly recommend Kip South Eastern. They know dogs and every element of their behaviour . We still receive emails checking in on him, and offering help when needed. Thank you Kip.
Was nervous about putting our little guy in a boarding place for the first time, but Kip really gave us peace of mind with their great communication and daily pics and videos. Enabled us to really enjoy our holiday in the knowledge our guy was being cared for!
A superb place for our pets to stay. Very responsive, pet carers were engaging, great daily updates easily accessible online, many options available during their stay and importantly health and safety of our pets were their highest priority. Highly recommended.
Our whole family is planning a New Year's vacation, so we needed to board our dog. We found this place had high ratings on Google, so we signed up for a two-week boarding and training program. During this time, our dog received excellent care. The trainer, Megan, trained our dog daily according to its behavior and habits. She was loving and experienced, updating us on the dog's day and patiently answering my questions. During the final handover, she patiently and meticulously explained the dog's characteristics and training results, personally guiding us on how to proceed. I gained a lot of valuable experience. I would definitely choose this place again if needed in the future.
Very impressed with Kip Dandenong. They went over and above with the best service. One of our dogs needed vet assistance and the guys at Kip kept us informed at all times. Excellent customer service and excellent care for our dogs.
I’ve had my dog stay here multiple times and they’re awesome to deal with. They provide quality rooms and care for the dogs. They send photos and updates everyday so you know our pet is safe and looked after while you’re away. Highly recommend!
My two dogs attended the board and train 21 days and I am so impressed by the results and experience. Both dogs are now loose lead walking and are more confident than ever. The best part for me is seeing my dog Ruby wagging her tail on walks instead of in between her legs, it has been such an incredible transformation. Meg and Megan were attentive and sensitive to the the dogs needs as well as offering expert advice and delivering exceptional training. I am so happy my dogs were well looked after and shown a lot of love. Thank you Kip, we will see you again! ❤️
I’m so happy we decided to move our very fussy and unsociable boys to Kip Melbourne South East. The staff are very friendly and professional and always provide photos of our boys during their play time. Thank you for looking after our little ones - I no longer feel guilty going on holidays as I know they will be well looked after. (Patch and Buddy say thanks as well)
