Has your dog been itching to try daycare?
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 $93!
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 cozy naps, Kip provides a stimulating and nurturing environment, ensuring your dogs enjoy their day to the fullest.

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.
Debbie McMillan
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
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.
