Two happy dogs on a trampoline at West Hindmarsh Dog Daycare

Kip West Hindmarsh is conveniently located in Allenby Gardens - drop off your dog on the way into the CBD! Your dog will love their day with us, getting plenty of enrichment, making new friends, and getting lots of cuddles, all in a safe and supervised environment.

Kip West Hindmarsh is open Monday - Friday from 7am - 6:30pm. We are closed on all public holidays.

As pet parents ourselves we know leaving your pup can be daunting so we deliver regular photo and video updates (aka pup-dates) right to your phone. You can access these through an easy-to-use customer portal!

Join us for a first-day trial to ensure that the daycare environment is suitable for your dog! This makes sure that your dog has an enriching experience with us and benefits from regular visits.

To attend daycare, your dog will need to be vaccinated (to C5 or above) and desexed if over 6 months (or up to 12 months with medical exception). Dogs can attend their first-day trial 10 days after their second vaccination (C5 or equivalent).

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 $102!

To attend daycare, your dog must be vaccinated (to C5 or above) and desexed if over 6 months (or up to 12 months with medical exception). Dogs can attend their First Day Trial 10 days after their second C5 vaccination.

My dog loves his days at Kip and I love it for him as well! The staff are so friendly, I love the midday updates and videos that I receive of my dog having fun with the other dogs, and he is always so happy on the drive home. Thank you Kip for taking good care of my dog on his Kip days!

Upen AV

Friendly staffs, my Rocky is happy with to go always and don’t want to leave !😆

Bec

Bella & Fenway love going to Kip West Hindmarsh. They look forward to their Kip days and are excited to get in and play. The staff are professional, friendly and treat our furbabies with as much love as if they are their own pets. Highly recommended

Frazer

Fantastic business that cares for my Groodle Bentley weekly. The highest praise is in Bentleys reaction when we arrive at Kip… he goes nuts!

Laura Mazzarino

KIP Doggy Daycare West Hindmarsh has been an absolute blessing for our caboodle, Frankie. Every week he happily walks through the door knowing he’s in for a day full of cuddles, ball play, and his favourite treats! The team is always so welcoming and genuinely knows each dog personally, which gives us so much confidence and peace of mind. The daily photo updates are such a highlight—they always manage to capture Frankie’s cheeky grin—and the adorable special‑occasion gifts for dog parents are such a thoughtful touch. It’s clear the staff truly love what they do. Our Frankie loves KIP West Hindmarsh, and so do we. Highly recommend to anyone looking for doggy daycare

Kim Ngu

We absolutely love Kip Doggy Day Care at West Hindmarsh! 🐶💛 From the moment we walk in, the team is genuinely excited to see Maple. It’s such a comforting feeling knowing she’s not just another dog to them—they truly care about her and treat her like one of their own. You can tell the staff really love what they do, and Maple always comes home happy, tired, and well looked after. The level of care and attention they give every dog is amazing, and it’s clear Maple has the best time whenever she’s there. As a dog owner, it means so much to know she’s in such great hands. The dog wash facilities are also a fantastic bonus—super convenient and a great way to bring home a clean pup after a big day of play! If you’re looking for a place where your dog will be genuinely loved and cared for, I can’t recommend Kip Doggy Day Care at West Hindmarsh highly enough. Maple absolutely loves it there, and so do we! 🐾

Karen Bowen

Highly recommend Kip West Hindmarsh daycare and Kip dog boarding Adelaide north. Very friendly and helpful staff my dog really enjoys his time at both facilities.

Jillian Jeffs

I was very pleased with my experience of the staff the way they handled showing my dog what doggy daycare was all about 🥰 Extremely helpful, kind and caring people work at this Kip in West Hindmash. I needed to give my little dog a little more confidence and this is certainly achieving that. He took a while to build confidence going in first few times, however, each time he has been a little better going in there. I intend to continue with taking Wally to Kip ❤️

Coral Hui

Really recommend Kip! My dog Cola absolutely loves going there every week. He even has a few favourite teachers (you can tell by how excited he gets when walking into the reception!). The staff are all so amazing and friendly! During festivals or special events, we also love getting the printed photos when picking him up — they’re such lovely keepsakes! Hopefully, they can print even more photos in the future! Of course they also send photos and videos throughout the day, and it always makes me so happy to see how much fun he’s having. Highly recommend Kip to all my friends! 🐶💛

オMelchan

We started using this daycare earlier this year, and it has been wonderful. The staff are patient and caring, and our dog has made so many friends. We love receiving daily photos and videos of the dogs’ interactions. Pick-up at 6 pm is super convenient, and the membership option with discounted prices is a great bonus.

Zoe Wenzel

Our lil man Ziggy has been attending Kip West Hindmarsh since we relocated from Melbourne in mid 2023. He's a rescue pup, and can be a bit nervous, especially with new people. He had a great routine attending a fab doggy daycare in Melbourne where he'd gained a lot of confidence, and honestly, one of our biggest worries moving interstate was he wouldn't find that happiness elsewhere! His daycare aunties at Kip were wonderful at helping him adjust to a new daycare environment. He always does best when he's able to explore in his own time & they understand all his quirky eccentricities! Ziggy now happily trots in to Kip once or twice a week, tail a wagging & has some very obvious 'besties'. I've already recommended Kip West Hindmarsh to neighbours & other friends who live locally and will continue to do so.

Rebecca Bianca

We have been taking our little dog Ruby to kip for a while we are very pleased at the way the staff look after her. The love that they give her Is unconditional. She was a very frightened and timid little puppy when we first bought her there now all we have to say is the word Kip and she gets so excited to go. The staff are brilliant and I highly recommend this place for everyone. Dogs should always socialise from the beginning and this is the place to do it. Highly recommended.

Mia Aukland

We love KIP and so does our dog.

Jay Docking

Staff are friendly and helpful. Our boy always comes home happy and fulfilled from his time here. Staff give updates throughout the day about your fur babies experience. Booking Services cater for those that like minimal fuss with online booking, however the staff are helpful if you prefer to talk to a person.

Can't recommend Kip West Hindmarsh enough. The staff are very welcoming & friendly. Most importantly, they care about the animals in their care. Our labrador, Harley, loves his weekly visit to Kip.

Our Charlie loves the ladies at Kip so much. She is nervous around most people but gets so excited to see the staff and spend the day with them. She loves going to day care because of them more than playing with the rest of the dogs!

Kip West Hindmarsh is a fantastic doggy day care. Our Otto attends a couple times a week and just loves it. The staff take extra good care of him and he always comes home a very tired but happy puppy!

We’ve been sending our boy since he was a pup and could not be happier. The team is so attentive, you can tell they really know the quirks and personalities of all the dogs in their care. On multiple occasions they have gone above and beyond for us and we’re so grateful to have them looking after him!

Our baby loves Kip! He gets so excited for daycare and we are always greeted by the gorgeous staff. We love that he gets to socialise and play with his furends, love seeing the photos and hearing about his day. He comes home so happy and tired after a fun filled day or adventures, playing and getting cuddles from his daycare aunties. Highly recommend this gorgeous daycare!

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.
