This was our first time boarding our dogs so I was very nervous with how it would go but we had an amazing experience. We got daily updates with photos and videos that really put me at ease. When I picked them up they didn’t even want to come home which I feel says a lot about their experience! As a bonus they were given a bath before we picked them up! Staff were lovely and gave us great feedback about their stay. Really happy with our experience and would definitely use this service again. Thank you to all the staff!

Tayla Stanford-Lee

KIP go above and beyond for their customers and pets! The staff are all very lovely and professional when it comes to handling dogs and they treat them as if they are their own. My pups have been there 2x now and they definitely look sad to leave… that shows a lot! Thanks for everything team. Couldn’t recommend enough!!

Sam Beddall

I recently boarded my dog (American Staffordshire Terrier) at Kip, and the experience was absolutely fantastic. The staff were amazing—friendly, professional, and clearly passionate about the dogs in their care. I especially appreciated the daily videos of my dog's playtime, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. The facilities were spotless and well-maintained, and communication from the team was exceptional throughout the entire stay. I felt completely confident that my dog was in safe and loving hands. I highly recommend Kip to anyone looking for quality boarding services. We'll definitely be returning!

Our girl loved her little break at KIP Hunter Valley. Ange and her staff were fantastic the photos she posted for us really put our minds at ease and we’ll definitely be seeing them again. Thank you so much KIP

Chantel Addison

We have been using Kip Hunter Valley for a number of years and have always loved the attentive service we receive for our much loved pets. Lexi, Bella and Fluff are frequent visitors, as we feel secure that they are getting the best possible care during their stays. We love Ange, Caitlyn

Jenny Newton

I love this place as does my furkid. From the moment we turn onto Bathurst Street he knows exactly where he is. The staff are amazing, fabulous and absolute dog lovers. Daily videos of my boy complete and excellent experience for both of us and a tired, clean fresh smelling pupper at pickup makes for an easy guilt free holiday

Tiron Manning

Our eldest has stayed with the team at Kip since he was 7 weeks old (now 6) and his sister Lucy (4) has been there for many visits too. Both get excited when they get onto the road to approach the kennel. They love all that care for them and we feel like they are well cared for. The video and photo updates keep us in touch with our fur babies and it’s amazing to see how much fun they’re having. While the pricing isn’t the cheapest, you feel that your animals are in the best hands with a team of experienced professionals.

My dog had a long stay here and when we got her back, she was happy and healthy. The staff showed love for our dog. This was a different experience that we had had elsewhere so we couldn't be happier. I liked receiving the daily videos. It can get a little pricey, so it would be nice if the daily own food fee could be removed, especially if I pack it and portion it out. Update after our 2nd stay - our dog came back happier than ever. We feel so at ease leaving our girl here. The team loved and cared for our girl and took the time to learn about her. This meant she was able to have social time during her stay with a suitable dog which is more valuable than anything to us. We wont consider boarding our staffy anywhere else

Cassandra Mcdonald

We love Kip Hunter Valley! Our 5 year old German Shepherd absolutely loves his time there. They make him feel part of their family and gives us piece of mind while we are away.

Casey Binns

From the first time speaking to Caitlin on phone I knew Kip was the right place to look after our reactive border collie . On arrival staff ( caitlin and Ange) were warm and professional, and I felt confident leaving Ollie in their care. We loved the daily updates and enjoyed our holiday knowing he was in good hands. Highly recommend.

Rachel Mckenzie

To say we are impressed is an understatement. Our boy George recently stayed at Kip Hunter Valley and he had the best time. The staff are all friendly, professional and highly trained. From the admin and booking team, the lovely driver and the kennel staff, I cannot speak highly enough. Kip Hunter Valley go above and beyond and all the additional things such as videos, photos, social play and report cards made this boarding facility really stand out. Thanks for taking such great care of him, we have already booked again.

Chantelle Scott

Our very first time boarding our 2 doggos and we were very nervous but from our walk through we knew they would be in good hands, The whole team has exceeded our expectations! They took such good care of our girls, We loved the daily videos and photos knowing they were having so much fun put us at ease. Our youngest had her birthday while boarding at kip and they went above and beyond giving her and her sister a little birthday party and treats so so sweet!! The girls came back to us all fresh and clean, They genuinely care for all of the animals they look after and we cannot wait to send the girls back again! Charli and Sasha had the best time Thank you again ❤️

Olivia Hurn

We were nervous about leaving our pups for the first time but the staff at Kip made us feel so assured instantly. We loved the daily videos and photos of our babies having so much fun and making friends. You can tell the staff really care. Would highly recommend Kip Hunter Valley ❤️

Kate Parker

We were really nervous about boarding our really anxious dog but the staff at Kip put our minds at ease right from the tour, our pup was nervous at first but the video updates we received showed her have a great time with the pups and staff in no time. She was super affectionate to the staff when we picked her up, proving just how much she fell in love with everyone there. Can’t wait for our next holiday and Sal can’t either. Thanks so much Kip team!

Guthriessa Tjiong

My little boy absolutely LOVES his trips to kip. He loves the girls there and we love seeing the free updates they give (really reassuring when we’re away). So glad to have found them and worth every single cent

Thank you to Ange and the team for taking great care of our 2 Havanese over the weekend. They were both so happy at the end of their stay. I commend you on the great and prompt communication as well as the induction tour. We loved the regular photo and video updates of our pups. Clearly they were having fun and feeling loved. We can feel confident to book them in when we need to.

Sudharma Varadarajan

Kip Boarding Hunter Valley has been amazing for our dog, Niko! She had a great time and was very well looked after during her stay. The pick-up and drop-off service was smooth, well-coordinated, and they were kind enough to drop her off right at our doorstep, which we really appreciated. Their portal, where they share updates and videos of your pet, is fantastic—super easy to use and a great way to stay connected while you're away. The booking process was seamless as well, making the whole experience stress-free. A big thank you to Ange and the team for taking such wonderful care of Niko. We couldn't recommend Kip Boarding Hunter Valley enough!

Mitchell Hill

AMAZING service for our cat while staying over the Christmas break. Daily videos were always a highlight and the staff went above and beyond to love and care for our pet.

Rebecca Herbst

The staff and facilities at Kip Hunter Valley are great! Our dogs absolutely loved their stay and had so much fun. Special shout out to Ange for her amazing communication during a medical situation with one of our dogs and Caitlyn for giving up her own time to get our dog to an overnight vet and even offering to pay the deposit for his treatment until we could settle things from overseas. I would absolutely recommend this place to anybody looking for a kennel where the dogs are loved on and spoiled every day.

andrew casey

Great peace of mind knowing Gizmo & Arlo were very well looked after and cared for when our family got away for a holiday. Judging from the daily video updates, the boys very much enjoyed their holiday too!!!!!

Briony Williamson

This is the second time we have used Kip Hunter Valley. They were recommended to us by friends and family. We have a large dog. Her first stay was about 15 months ago for 11 days and we have just had her stay for another 22 day stay through Dec 2024. Both experiences with Kip Hunter Valley have been exceptional. The staff are lovely, they are clearly animal lovers. Bookings and communication with the team is easy and they are responsive. Best of all we received daily videos of our fur baby playing with others, socialising and interacting with the carers. We could clearly see she was having a great time. Although Hunter Valley is a distance from Sydney (pickup and drop-off available) it is definitely worth it for the accommodation and the care they receive. So nice to know she is having a great time while we are.

Sue

Maisy and Toby were first timers at KIP Hunter Valley. The staff were very warm, caring, energetic, welcoming and fun. They are doggie focussed and helped Toby (very shy) settle in. The daily activity feeds are great. They have come home in good health and are calm and happy. Thank you to Ange and her team😊🐶🐶❤️

Alyssa Severi

Highly recommend Kip Hunter Valley for dog boarding. I sent my two dogs Magpie and Bandit to Kip Hunter Valley Resort for 8 days in November while I went interstate. When I spoke with the staff on the phone, they were super friendly, informative and accommodating to me, especially with me last minute adding one of the dogs on to be boarded. I’d never boarded either of the dogs before, so I was a bit worried about how they’d do with strangers, but the team at Kip were phenomenal with both dogs and clearly looked after them so well! The daily updates with photos and videos of both dogs were so awesome to get. I was so pleasantly surprised when they sent videos on the first day of my dog Bandit being his cuddly self with the staff, when usually he’s absolutely terrified of new people and takes a while to warm up <3

Simone Mourtos

Our first time boarding our 2 dogs, and we will never send them anywhere else after such a wonderful experience with Kip Hunter Valley Pet Resort. The daily 'pupdates' showing photos and videos of our girls making new furry friends and being loved allowed us to relax knowing they were in the best hands possible. If I could give more than 5 stars I would!⭐️ When we picked them up they were clean, happy, relaxed, and had clearly developed strong bonds and trust with all of the fabulous staff. Thank you team Kip for loving our girls and giving them the best holiday while we were away, they are already looking forward to coming back, and we will see you again soon!❤️

Anthony Galea

Malibu loved her little holiday at Kip Hunter Valley, but us at ease knowing that she was being well looked after and making new friends with the lovely staff. Will definitely be using this company again

Nikita Powell

Ange & her team have been absolutely life changers for us. Our 2.5 year old Rottweiler has never been minded by anyone prior to his visits with KIP. Ange was so patient with our boy. Most people would look at a 60kg rotty & say it’s too much work. Ange really persisted and patiently grew a solid relationship with our boy which really created such a positive experience. The whole experience has been so inspiring to see how the ladies work with these animals. This kennel is top of the range with quality carers. Our dog went in scared for the first visit and from the experience when he returned was so excited to go back. Previously we had simply never gone away because we didn’t want to leave our boy. Kip has given us a safe haven for our boy for the occasions that we may go on a short trip. We cannot recommend Ange & her team enough. The passion & love for the animals really shines through and we truly feel blessed to have found such amazing, caring people.

Allyson Bubenicek

Staff are passionate and caring for all animals. Replies were swift and informative. I had no worries at all in leaving our large dog with the staff at Kip Hunter Valley.

Such an amazing place. We placed our 4 month old Golden Retriever in here and she had an absolutely awesome time. Staff were great and super friendly, and treated our girl as if she was family. Video updates were fantastic, showing how much fun our girl was having. Highly recommend!

Claudia D'Amore

Cannot recommend this amazing resort more. My partner and I have two inseperable, anxious, BIG dogs that would react to other dogs and new people. The staff were super friendly and a weight was lifted our shoulders seeing how experienced with reactive dogs they were. Having a photo/video sent of my dogs every day kept my mind at ease while away on holiday too. If I could give more stars, I would.

Clare James

The staff completely at at KIP were incredible with the care of our 6 year dog, who has anxiety issues. She was cared for so professionally and it really was a positive experience for her and put us completely at ease. The space is so great for both dogs and cats and is a very calm environment. We couldn't be happier or more grateful.

Kate Leggatt

This is more like a Hilton hotel dog resort. The workers were soo beautiful and kind and kept us updated with videos throughout our dogs stay. Our golden retriever has anxiety and seemed to absolutely love his stay here.

Alysia Blundell

The team at Kip Hunter Valley are absolutely amazing! They were so welcoming and made us feel Atlas was in safe hands. We loved how we got regular photo & video updates to see what he was up to. Atlas definitely had the best time & I think he was sad to leave. He’ll be looking forward to his next stay! 😊

Iain Ferrie

No need to look elsewhere this place is the best. Top class service and my dog is always looking forward to going and is spoilt rotten.

Janette Harris

Thank you to Ange and the team for taking great care of our 2 Havanese over the weekend. They were both so happy at the end of their stay. I commend you on the great and prompt communication as well as the induction tour. We loved the regular photo and video updates of our pups. Clearly they were having fun and feeling loved. We can feel confident to book them in when we need to.

Kip Boarding Hunter Valley has been amazing for our dog, Niko! She had a great time and was very well looked after during her stay. The pick-up and drop-off service was smooth, well-coordinated, and they were kind enough to drop her off right at our doorstep, which we really appreciated. Their portal, where they share updates and videos of your pet, is fantastic—super easy to use and a great way to stay connected while you're away. The booking process was seamless as well, making the whole experience stress-free. A big thank you to Ange and the team for taking such wonderful care of Niko. We couldn't recommend Kip Boarding Hunter Valley enough!

Mitchell Hill

AMAZING service for our cat while staying over the Christmas break. Daily videos were always a highlight and the staff went above and beyond to love and care for our pet.

Rebecca Herbst

The staff and facilities at Kip Hunter Valley are great! Our dogs absolutely loved their stay and had so much fun. Special shout out to Ange for her amazing communication during a medical situation with one of our dogs and Caitlyn for giving up her own time to get our dog to an overnight vet and even offering to pay the deposit for his treatment until we could settle things from overseas. I would absolutely recommend this place to anybody looking for a kennel where the dogs are loved on and spoiled every day.

andrew casey

Great peace of mind knowing Gizmo & Arlo were very well looked after and cared for when our family got away for a holiday. Judging from the daily video updates, the boys very much enjoyed their holiday too!!!!!

Briony Williamson

This is the second time we have used Kip Hunter Valley. They were recommended to us by friends and family. We have a large dog. Her first stay was about 15 months ago for 11 days and we have just had her stay for another 22 day stay through Dec 2024. Both experiences with Kip Hunter Valley have been exceptional. The staff are lovely, they are clearly animal lovers. Bookings and communication with the team is easy and they are responsive. Best of all we received daily videos of our fur baby playing with others, socialising and interacting with the carers. We could clearly see she was having a great time. Although Hunter Valley is a distance from Sydney (pickup and drop-off available) it is definitely worth it for the accommodation and the care they receive. So nice to know she is having a great time while we are.

Sue

Maisy and Toby were first timers at KIP Hunter Valley. The staff were very warm, caring, energetic, welcoming and fun. They are doggie focussed and helped Toby (very shy) settle in. The daily activity feeds are great. They have come home in good health and are calm and happy. Thank you to Ange and her team😊🐶🐶❤️

Alyssa Severi

Highly recommend Kip Hunter Valley for dog boarding. I sent my two dogs Magpie and Bandit to Kip Hunter Valley Resort for 8 days in November while I went interstate. When I spoke with the staff on the phone, they were super friendly, informative and accommodating to me, especially with me last minute adding one of the dogs on to be boarded. I’d never boarded either of the dogs before, so I was a bit worried about how they’d do with strangers, but the team at Kip were phenomenal with both dogs and clearly looked after them so well! The daily updates with photos and videos of both dogs were so awesome to get. I was so pleasantly surprised when they sent videos on the first day of my dog Bandit being his cuddly self with the staff, when usually he’s absolutely terrified of new people and takes a while to warm up <3

Simone Mourtos

Our first time boarding our 2 dogs, and we will never send them anywhere else after such a wonderful experience with Kip Hunter Valley Pet Resort. The daily 'pupdates' showing photos and videos of our girls making new furry friends and being loved allowed us to relax knowing they were in the best hands possible. If I could give more than 5 stars I would!⭐️ When we picked them up they were clean, happy, relaxed, and had clearly developed strong bonds and trust with all of the fabulous staff. Thank you team Kip for loving our girls and giving them the best holiday while we were away, they are already looking forward to coming back, and we will see you again soon!❤️

Anthony Galea

Malibu loved her little holiday at Kip Hunter Valley, but us at ease knowing that she was being well looked after and making new friends with the lovely staff. Will definitely be using this company again

Nikita Powell

Ange & her team have been absolutely life changers for us. Our 2.5 year old Rottweiler has never been minded by anyone prior to his visits with KIP. Ange was so patient with our boy. Most people would look at a 60kg rotty & say it’s too much work. Ange really persisted and patiently grew a solid relationship with our boy which really created such a positive experience. The whole experience has been so inspiring to see how the ladies work with these animals. This kennel is top of the range with quality carers. Our dog went in scared for the first visit and from the experience when he returned was so excited to go back. Previously we had simply never gone away because we didn’t want to leave our boy. Kip has given us a safe haven for our boy for the occasions that we may go on a short trip. We cannot recommend Ange & her team enough. The passion & love for the animals really shines through and we truly feel blessed to have found such amazing, caring people.
