Kip’s dog boarding in Adelaide isn’t just a service, it’s a pawsome escape built for wagging tails and happy hearts.
Our crew? 100% dog people. Some are NDTF-certified trainers, and all of them are champions at belly rubs, ball throws and spotting the perfect scratch spot. With spacious grounds, comfy rooms and a company vet on call, we cover every detail, from safety to snuggles.

Our Adelaide Dog Boarding Facilities & Daily Routine
Kip’s dog boarding in Adelaide is all about balance. Here’s a peek inside your fur babies' day:
Where they stay
- Private retreats: spacious retreats with comfortable bedding for pups who like their own space.
- Luxury suites: roomy set-ups for year-round comfort and private astro-turfed yards for our VIPs (Very Important Pooches), available at selected locations.
- Bush trails and grassy play yards: leafy paths and spacious, secured play yards, perfect for sniff-quests and a good ol’ nose workout.
- Cool down corners: prime real estate for a mid-day flop.
What their day looks like
- Morning welfare check: A quick once-over to make sure every dog is happy and healthy and had a good night's sleep, followed by any meds if needed.
- Breakfast: Morning brekkie, served fresh to start the day.
- Slow start: a little quiet time for biiiiiiiig stretches to prep for the fun ahead.
- Mid-morning adventures: play yard zoomies and activities to get those tails swishing.
- Extra fun: bonus playtime or another wander for pups with energy to burn.
- Afternoon treat: For those with this tasty extra, a special snack before winding down for the day.
- Evening welfare check: One last check to make sure everyone’s settled and comfortable, as well as any meds if needed.
- Lights out: one last welfare check, a few bedtime pats and into a fresh, comfy room for a night of sweet doggy dreams.
Baths, health checks and weigh-ins can pop up during their stay, but they’re quick, fuss-free and occasionally rewarded with a sneaky snack for good behaviour. And, because no great holiday goes undocumented, we’ll send photo or video updates so you can keep up with their four-pawed adventures.
Where to Find Us in Adelaide
Kip has multiple dog boarding locations across Adelaide, each within easy reach and offering their own slice of doggy holiday heaven.
- Kip Adelaide Hills: Nestled in leafy Heathfield, just minutes from Stirling and under 30 minutes from Adelaide CBD.
- Kip Adelaide North: Spacious grounds in Lewiston, close to Gawler, Two Wells and the northern suburbs.
Both are close enough for convenience, yet far enough for your dog to feel like they’ve had a proper country escape. Come for a tour! We love showing off our four-legged guests’ fave spots.

I like to believe that our dog is their favorite, but maybe they make everyone feel like that. It's certain that going here is our dogs favorite activity!
Me and my Noodlyhead love Kip Brunswick, thanks for taking such good care of her when I have to go to work... She always has a ball and I love updates of her having a great time!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 🐕💚
Awesome little puppy school and day care ! We took our 10 week old puppy there for school and they treated him so well, we got one on one care and advice and they took the most gorgeous graduation photo!
My border collie cross Olivewas a recent adoption from RSPCA when she had her first stay at Kip Ipswich. She returned to me happy and settled then on her second stay at Kip she greeted staff so enthusiastically that I know I can always count on her being happy there. Thanks Kip for the updates and for taking such good care of Olive.
Great place with caring and friendly staff and competitive prices. Our dog absolutely loves it here and we love how they keep us informed with photos and videos through the day, and they also provide feedback when we pick her up.
It actually would of been rude of me, not to write a review!! My mini dachshund goes here, and unlike other schools they do not have the dangerous equipment i was anxious about. The daycare was super friendly, nice, reassuring and patient with my baby... I received a report card on his first day, and in great detail which means they really do not over look anything. You have you own account, and not only receive updates but little personal videos, along with the ones posted on Instagram. Kip is everywhere, and your account is connected, so it is super convenient and i would totally recommend for anyone looking! Thank you!!! x
Great place! They even do report cards for your dawg I like that they have enrichment activities too.
Great place for your doggo to spend a day when you're otherwise engaged. The staff know their dogs and the service is excellent. Our pup always comes home happily satisfied from a day of activity.
