Mon-Fri: 7:00am-6:30pm. We are closed on all public holidays.
You don’t just have to live with bad behaviour! A visit to doggy daycare means they’ll get to learn and reinforce basic training and good habits. Our experienced handlers will help them with the basic skills to be a well-mannered dog, no matter what their age.
As pet parents ourselves we know leaving your pup can be daunting so we deliver regular photo and/or video updates (aka pup-dates) right to your phone. You can access these through an easy-to-use customer portal!

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 $1!
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).
A daycare worth barking about!
From playtime to cosy naps, Kip provides a stimulating and nurturing environment, ensuring your dogs enjoy their day to the fullest.

Great place for your dog while your in the office or out on site
My dog had a good first day and the people were absolutely lovely. He went in shaky and scared but came out with a smile on his face.
This place is amazing not only for us but most importantly, our young Border Collie. Cooper loves coming here and is well taken care of, gets his fill of socialising and comes home all tuckered out after a long and happy day. The staff are so friendly, supportive and provide honest feedback so we know we’re leaving him in good hands. Thank you!
Love this place . Nugget ( Jack Russell) loves this place too . He comes home super tired every single time and Iove the regular update photos ☺️
Thor has been attending day care at Kip for the last 4 years. Staff are friendly and the best part is Thor is knackered when he gets home after a full day of playing with the other dogs.
staff were very welcoming to me and my doggie. She was gently taken in to meet the other doggies. Love the report card and photos sent to me . I felt very confident leaving my girl here.
Love this place for my super beany baby. They manage my high energy lab beautifully and Lola looks forward to seeing them and all of her friends each week.
My Dog has been going to kip in Blackburn since she was a pup. She can't wait to get out of the car as she is so excited for a play date. The staff have all been amazing, friendly and caring. I am very happy to recommend Kip.
Our dog Finn knows as soon as we get his collar on that it’s his day to go to Kip. He’s so excited all the way there and we can barely hold him back in reception as he just wants to play with his friends. We couldn’t be happier with his care and the photo updates throughout the day are a fantastic bonus.
My dog goes once a week and it's the highlight of her week! The attendants are wonderful and caring, they take photos and give me a verbal update when I pick her up. They also have special events e.g. last week "Pups and Prose". I love that I can go to work knowing my dog will be well looked after whilst having a blast.
Very friendly staff and always take good care of my dog. Masiy loves the staff and dog friends at the daycare and sometimes she doesn’t want to go home with me 🤦♀️🤭
Great team. Maxie always comes home happy and tired! Highly recommend.
I wouldn't hesitate to send your dog here - our dog Lola has been attending for months now and she absolutely loves it! Receiving the photo's and videos of her there makes it a great experience for us too, they put your pet in with animals that suit yours so you know they will be having the time of their life whilst there. We love Kip Dog Daycare!!

Absolute 5 stars for the team at KIP Blackburn. They welcomed and looked after my puppy Billy with the utmost care, from Billy's first day you can see how much fun he had and made new mates! I know that he is looking forward to his next day with such a great team and the photo updates are brilliant! Thank you so much.
Five stars for my pup’s experience at doggy day care! From the moment I dropped off my pup, I knew she was in good hands. The staff's genuine love for dogs was evident, and my pup received top-notch care and attention throughout the morning. The facilities were clean, spacious, and equipped with everything a dog could dream of. Most importantly, my pup came home happy, tired, and ready for a good snooze after being filled with playtime and socialisation. I’m incredibly grateful for the wonderful care provided by the team and I highly recommend KIP Doggy Daycare to any pet parent seeking a safe and fun environment for their beloved canine companion
Lili had a lovely first stay - she was nice and relaxed when she came home - will be back again.
Brilliant team, great place. Highly reccomend dropping your pup off there for fun and games. Our 7 month old staff loves it and is exhausted when she comes home afterwards
Opal just had her first day at Kip. I appreciated the updates and felt they actually took the time to get to know my girl. She was asleep less than 60 seconds into the drive home so 10/10 from me.
Kip Blackburn is AMAZING. They take such good care of my little Toy Cavoodle Apple Crumble. Not only that she has gained so much confidence around other dogs since going there. HIGHLY recommend .
My 2 'Grandfurbabies' abstract LOVE their Kip time😍😍🐾🐾
Staff are friendly and absolutely wonderful with giving you tips and feedback about your dog. Our one always comes back home with a smile and runs to the door before we let him in once we get there
Brilliant place to drop my dogs off at, always come back tired and happy 😊
Thor loves this place. Staff are super friendly, and the updates throughout the day are always great to see. Best part is Thor is so knackered once he is home.
Highly recommend! Our little Lola loves going to doggy day care. The hours Kip offer allow my partner and I to be flexible around work commitments. Thanks Kip!
Our corgi Oliver loves going to play with his friends. The staff are all friendly and honest, we have found they always tell you about any issues that pop up. Love getting the photo updates of his day as well.
Our dog’s version of heaven. Amazing team, amazing service, highly recommend!

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 visit.
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 are unable to 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.
