Is your dog ready to join the daycare fun?
You need to attend a First Day Trial before coming more regularly
We want to ensure your pup gets started on the right paw when they join the Kip family. That’s why all dogs do a first-day trial to see whether the daycare environment suits them. On this first day trial, we encourage you to arrive before 9:00am to give your dog the best chance of success. We will give you an update throughout the day, and at pick-up, you will receive a report card and the team will discuss a recommended attendance plan. You will also need to be available for an earlier pick-up should our staff deem that daycare is not suitable for your dog.
Grab a 3-Day Intro Pack for only $26/day (1 month expiry) - saving $132!
To attend daycare your dog will need to be vaccinated (to C5 or above) and desexed if over 12 months. Dogs can attend their First Day Trial 10 days after their second vaccination (C5 or equivalent).
Did you know we offer door-to-door transport?
That’s right, you read correctly! We are now offering door-to-door transport, so for a small charge, you can enjoy the benefits of daycare without having to even leave your home! We pick up your dog between 6-9am and drop them back between 3-6pm. Have a chat with one of our friendly team members to discuss how we can help with getting your dog to and from daycare by calling us on (02) 9381 9155.

Lovely customer service and thank you team
Great staff, good care
I can't recommend Kip Alexandria enough! My Cavoodle, Zeke, loves it here and is growing more confident by the day. The manager, Tash, creates such a welcoming atmosphere, and the staff are incredibly friendly and attentive. It's a wonderful place, especially for dogs who may suffer from separation anxiety. Zeke has thrived in this environment, and it gives me peace of mind knowing he's in such caring hands. Our experience has been excellent, and I wholeheartedly recommend Kip Alexandria to other dog owners looking for a safe and nurturing space for their fur babies!
Kip Alexandria is amazing. I can’t say enough good things about this place. My puppy Ruby absolutely loves it here—she practically drags me to the door every time we arrive. The staff are incredible: friendly, professional, and truly attentive. It’s clear they care deeply about the dogs in their care. Ruby always comes home happy, well-exercised, and clearly loved. I trust them completely and wouldn’t take her anywhere else.
The best doggy day care in Sydney! Tash and the team are incredible, they look after each dog as if they were their own, and the pups have the best time when they go to Kip. There is plenty of space for the dogs to play, plus they get a lot of enrichment and learning opportunities. Highly recommend.
Lovely place, great staff, happy puppy after his first day care day there.
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!
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
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
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 !
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
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 🥰
Kip Alexandria is Bowie's number one favourite place! He is the happiest on the days he gets go to to Kip and exhausted by the time he gets home.

I honestly can’t recommend this place enough! Not only is my staffy extremely well loved, exercised and taken care of but the staff are absolutely next level! They are so knowledgeable and considerate and also so friendly to both me and my pup, they remembered his name and that he was mine after only the second time going. He’s been going 1-2 times a week for a couple of months now, always comes home nice and tired and we have zero plans to stop - also get emailed updates and they post quite often on fb stories ❤️
The Kip Alexandria team are wonderful. It’s the first time we’ve left our puppy alone for a fully day without either of us around and we felt totally confident leaving her with the team. It’s amazing to know they keep an eye on the dogs and actively engage with them all day. We loved hearing about the friends Hilary had made😊 Highly recommend!
Our dog Walter absolutely loves going to Kip Alexandria! He goes 1-2 days a week, and runs to the door with excitement. We are updated throughout the day with pictures/videos of Walter and he's always having so much fun. Would highly recommend.
Kip Alexandria is paws down the best in town! The staff's love for dogs shines through in everything they do. What sets them apart is their local mini-dachshund group – it's a real treat for my little one. They organise a ton of fun activities, from interactive games to playtime (and nap time). My DiDi comes home absolutely exhausted from all the fun! The facility is always clean, safe, and well-maintained, which is crucial for me. Plus, they provide regular updates and photos throughout the day, so I can see the fun DiDi is having. If you want your dog to have a day full of excitement and play, Kip Alexandria is the place to be. I can't recommend it enough! 🐾🎉
BEST DOG DAY CARE EVER. Our staffy X loves it, always runs in to Kip in the morning with top enthusiasm. The staff are fantastic always keeping the dogs entertained and loved. We couldn't recommend Kip enough.
Brilliant for dog amusement and amazing staff
Kip Alexandria is AMAZING! Our dog Winnie was anxious and lacked confidence. She was a covid pup but had also been attacked at the park. It had gotten to the point where she wouldn't even go for a walk and would hide when she saw the lead. So we decided to try Kip after a friend recommended and we haven't looked back. Winnie is a new girl, she loves her daycare days, she plays so nicely with the other dogs and her confidence has grown so much. The facility is amazing and always clean. I loved that there was a trial / assessment to start for all new dogs and you get a debrief on behaviour at the end of each day. The staff are all so lovely and caring and I think the fact they do activities and training with the dogs is brilliant. The dogs get physical and mental stimulation, and our girl comes home happy as! Worth every cent!!!!!
We love Kip @ Alexandria, our very active Boxer girl Ms Bridget Jones has been going there about 3 days a week for 18 months, she loves to play with her best friend Bernie and her beautiful carers Tash, Lauren and the rest of the team are just wonderful ❤️ we would be absolutely lost without them.
Finding KIP Alexandria has been the best thing for our little Baxter and for us. He gets to play with friends all day, and comes home ready to sleep through the night. And the staff are so helpful and positive. Every day they post one or more videos of our dog having fun (like this unusual one!).
Kip is the best! We have been sending our fur baby there for months. She is very anxious and can’t be home alone, it was stressful at first but once I found Kip it’s been a blessing. We take her 2-4 times a week and it is totally worth it! All the staff there are amazing, we really appreciate all their hard work, love and care :) It’s the highlight of our fur baby’s day, she jumps out of the car with excitement every time we pull up in the morning. It’s great for energetic dogs, they play all day with each other and come home completely pooped. We have never had any issues or harm with our dog, I believe the trainers are experienced enough to manage any situation if it did arise, but we trust them fully with the safety of our beloved baby 🐶💗 I highly recommend Alexandria Kip! - Photo attached of my happy baby at daycare (she loves it here)
Kip had been an absolute lifesaver for our family. My partner and I work 9-5 and have two dogs (15 years and 10 months) at home. We certainly didn't plan to get a newer, so much younger, addition but we did and puppydom has been as much a joy as challenge to experience all over again. Needless to say, we would be lost without Kip. Just as we were searching for how to manage leaving such a young puppy home alone, without stressing out our older one, Kip appeared on the map and the reviews were glowing. We booked little Milo (then 8 months) in for a trial day and we were a nervous wreck all day because we know that not all pups and not all daycares are the right fit. It could not have gone better. The team let me hang around a little after drop off, provided so many photos and videos throughout the day, and at the end of his first day, they sat me down with a little report card. They had evaluated Milo carefully, noted which dogs he got along with and which he shied away from. They recommended days he was suitable for and I could tell that they cared as much about the safety and care of their current pack as they did any potential new additions. It made me feel that if Milo could fit in here, he would be in safe and responsible hands. It has been more than 2 months since then and Milo now goes twice a week. He loves it so much that he runs inside each morning and is returned to us a sleepy bundle each evening. We like to joke that 2 days at Kip buys us 4 days of peace - he is just that content. If you're considering leaving your beloved pup here, but are as nervous as I was, I can only say that we've been there. Doggy daycare isn't for all dogs and we feel lucky that it has worked out for us. If you can give it a go, be open to the process and assessment. I commend the staff here for their expertise and loving hearts. I trust them more with Milo than I thought possible.
Our pup had the absolute best time at KIP over the last year! The staff is very friendly, the facility is clean and spacious, and engaging activities are provided every day. The attention to safety and the genuine care for each dog is remarkable. Highly recommended!
We’ve been sending our 1.5 year old spoodle, Alfie, to Kip Alexandria every week for almost a year now and he LOVES it. He’s always super excited to walk into the daycare centre and he always comes home tired and happy. All of the staff are super friendly, they always take the time to give us a rundown of his day when we pick him up, they have a huge variety of games and activities for the dogs that changes every week and they’re really good with sending an update during the day each time Alfie visits. You also get a good sense of what the dogs get up to through their social media. They’re good at ensuring the dog’s vaccinations are up to date (meaning I know all the other dogs that go there also have their vaccinations up to date) and the team seem to do a good job of placing the dogs in appropriate social groups. Tash and the team at Kip Alexandria are excellent and we can’t recommend them highly enough!
The Kip Alexandria team are the best in town! We’ve tried other doggy daycare’s but no other treats our fur-boy with the love, care, stimulation & socialization he receives at Kip. The team are exceptional. Charlie attends 3 days a week & is so excited every time he goes. We would be lost without his Kip Alexandria family. Thank you team for the wonderful care you give our puppy 🥰
Great friendly staff, very good and consistent communications and updates! Isabella and Sophie were very reassuring. Some feedback for management: in the reception area had a fient but distinct smell from (likely) dog 'accidents'. Unavoidable I know, but maybe some air freshener could go a long way! All in all really great, would recommend!

The team are exceptional. Charlie attends 3 days a week & is so excited every time he goes. We would be lost without his Kip Alexandria family. Thank you team for the wonderful care you give our puppy 🥰
Great friendly staff, very good and consistent communications and updates! Isabella and Sophie were very reassuring. Some feedback for management: in the reception area had a fient but distinct smell from (likely) dog 'accidents'. Unavoidable I know, but maybe some air freshener could go a long way! All in all really great, would recommend!
I honestly can’t recommend this place enough! Not only is my staffy extremely well loved, exercised and taken care of but the staff are absolutely next level! They are so knowledgeable and considerate and also so friendly to both me and my pup, they remembered his name and that he was mine after only the second time going. He’s been going 1-2 times a week for a couple of months now, always comes home nice and tired and we have zero plans to stop - also get emailed updates and they post quite often on fb stories ❤️
The Kip Alexandria team are wonderful. It’s the first time we’ve left our puppy alone for a fully day without either of us around and we felt totally confident leaving her with the team. It’s amazing to know they keep an eye on the dogs and actively engage with them all day. We loved hearing about the friends Hilary had made😊 Highly recommend!
Our dog Walter absolutely loves going to Kip Alexandria! He goes 1-2 days a week, and runs to the door with excitement. We are updated throughout the day with pictures/videos of Walter and he's always having so much fun. Would highly recommend.
Kip Alexandria is paws down the best in town! The staff's love for dogs shines through in everything they do. What sets them apart is their local mini-dachshund group – it's a real treat for my little one. They organise a ton of fun activities, from interactive games to playtime (and nap time). My DiDi comes home absolutely exhausted from all the fun! The facility is always clean, safe, and well-maintained, which is crucial for me. Plus, they provide regular updates and photos throughout the day, so I can see the fun DiDi is having. If you want your dog to have a day full of excitement and play, Kip Alexandria is the place to be. I can't recommend it enough! 🐾🎉
BEST DOG DAY CARE EVER. Our staffy X loves it, always runs in to Kip in the morning with top enthusiasm. The staff are fantastic always keeping the dogs entertained and loved. We couldn't recommend Kip enough.
Brilliant for dog amusement and amazing staff
Kip Alexandria is AMAZING! Our dog Winnie was anxious and lacked confidence. She was a covid pup but had also been attacked at the park. It had gotten to the point where she wouldn't even go for a walk and would hide when she saw the lead. So we decided to try Kip after a friend recommended and we haven't looked back. Winnie is a new girl, she loves her daycare days, she plays so nicely with the other dogs and her confidence has grown so much. The facility is amazing and always clean. I loved that there was a trial / assessment to start for all new dogs and you get a debrief on behaviour at the end of each day. The staff are all so lovely and caring and I think the fact they do activities and training with the dogs is brilliant. The dogs get physical and mental stimulation, and our girl comes home happy as! Worth every cent!!!!!
We love Kip @ Alexandria, our very active Boxer girl Ms Bridget Jones has been going there about 3 days a week for 18 months, she loves to play with her best friend Bernie and her beautiful carers Tash, Lauren and the rest of the team are just wonderful ❤️ we would be absolutely lost without them.
Finding KIP Alexandria has been the best thing for our little Baxter and for us. He gets to play with friends all day, and comes home ready to sleep through the night. And the staff are so helpful and positive. Every day they post one or more videos of our dog having fun (like this unusual one!).
Kip is the best! We have been sending our fur baby there for months. She is very anxious and can’t be home alone, it was stressful at first but once I found Kip it’s been a blessing. We take her 2-4 times a week and it is totally worth it! All the staff there are amazing, we really appreciate all their hard work, love and care :) It’s the highlight of our fur baby’s day, she jumps out of the car with excitement every time we pull up in the morning. It’s great for energetic dogs, they play all day with each other and come home completely pooped. We have never had any issues or harm with our dog, I believe the trainers are experienced enough to manage any situation if it did arise, but we trust them fully with the safety of our beloved baby 🐶💗 I highly recommend Alexandria Kip! - Photo attached of my happy baby at daycare (she loves it here)
Kip had been an absolute lifesaver for our family. My partner and I work 9-5 and have two dogs (15 years and 10 months) at home. We certainly didn't plan to get a newer, so much younger, addition but we did and puppydom has been as much a joy as challenge to experience all over again. Needless to say, we would be lost without Kip. Just as we were searching for how to manage leaving such a young puppy home alone, without stressing out our older one, Kip appeared on the map and the reviews were glowing. We booked little Milo (then 8 months) in for a trial day and we were a nervous wreck all day because we know that not all pups and not all daycares are the right fit. It could not have gone better. The team let me hang around a little after drop off, provided so many photos and videos throughout the day, and at the end of his first day, they sat me down with a little report card. They had evaluated Milo carefully, noted which dogs he got along with and which he shied away from. They recommended days he was suitable for and I could tell that they cared as much about the safety and care of their current pack as they did any potential new additions. It made me feel that if Milo could fit in here, he would be in safe and responsible hands. It has been more than 2 months since then and Milo now goes twice a week. He loves it so much that he runs inside each morning and is returned to us a sleepy bundle each evening. We like to joke that 2 days at Kip buys us 4 days of peace - he is just that content. If you're considering leaving your beloved pup here, but are as nervous as I was, I can only say that we've been there. Doggy daycare isn't for all dogs and we feel lucky that it has worked out for us. If you can give it a go, be open to the process and assessment. I commend the staff here for their expertise and loving hearts. I trust them more with Milo than I thought possible.
Our pup had the absolute best time at KIP over the last year! The staff is very friendly, the facility is clean and spacious, and engaging activities are provided every day. The attention to safety and the genuine care for each dog is remarkable. Highly recommended!
We’ve been sending our 1.5 year old spoodle, Alfie, to Kip Alexandria every week for almost a year now and he LOVES it. He’s always super excited to walk into the daycare centre and he always comes home tired and happy. All of the staff are super friendly, they always take the time to give us a rundown of his day when we pick him up, they have a huge variety of games and activities for the dogs that changes every week and they’re really good with sending an update during the day each time Alfie visits. You also get a good sense of what the dogs get up to through their social media. They’re good at ensuring the dog’s vaccinations are up to date (meaning I know all the other dogs that go there also have their vaccinations up to date) and the team seem to do a good job of placing the dogs in appropriate social groups.

Experienced Staff, Safe Space, Structured Routine, and Fun Activities
is what makes Kip doggy daycare different!
Not every doggy daycare is built equal! At Kip, our daycare model is built off decades of doggy daycare learnings and experience. We put your dog first and ensure both you and your pooch are able to get the most out of our enriching daycare environment.
After the First Day Trial, your dog will reap the benefits of the structured daily routines and our focus on developing fundamental skills and manners (recall, gate manners, group sits) that makes Kip unique. To top things off, you’ll receive regular photo and video updates of your dog’s daycare experience, receive honest feedback and see the benefits daycare provides.

FAQs
Our requirements for dog daycare is as follows:
Vaccination Requirement: Your pet must be vaccinated, and the vaccination must be valid for the entire duration of your pet's stay.
- Puppies may attend daycare 10 days after their second puppy vaccine as long as they are C5 or equivalent.
- Dogs must have an up-to-date C5 (or equivalent) vaccination.
10-Day Rule: If your pet's previous vaccination had lapsed by more than 14 days, the new vaccine must be administered at least 10 days before the check-in date.
Vaccination Documentation: You are required to provide us with evidence of your pet's current (and immediate prior vaccination if checking in with 10 days of their most recent vaccination)
De-sexing Policy: Dogs must be de-sexed by 12 months
A Kip day starts bright and early at 7am, giving you plenty of time to drop off your furry friend on the way to work. Your dog’s day will be divided into two play sessions, morning and afternoon, and is broken up with quiet time in between to relax and recharge. This balance ensures that every dog has a great time without being overwhelmed and goes home looking forward to their next visit.
Groups are generally based on size, personality and play style so that your pup can enjoy their time with their BFFs (best furry friends!). Our animal handlers will also switch around groups as needed so that your dog gets the best out of every stay.
Safety is our number one priority. All dogs in our care are fully vaccinated and have passed their trial day before joining. Our floors are also non-slip and water-resistant, and our fences dig-proof.
The late cancellation charge allows us to reallocate your reservation to another pup if you cannot attend your session. This late cancellation/no-show charge applies to customers who fail to cancel a daycare visit by 5pm the day prior to the reservation.
Absolutely! Our transport service will pick up your dog bright and early between 6-9am and drop them off between 3-6pm. Please note that someone needs to be home to facilitate the transport. Door-to-door transport is currently available on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Areas serviced: Darlinghurst, Darling Point, Elizabeth Bay, Paddington, Potts Point, Rushcutters Bay, Surry Hills, and surrounding suburbs! Contact us at alexandria@kip.com.au for more details.
