Margaret Hill
Meg & all staff at Kip did a fantastic job in training and looking after my beautiful Daisy , I was kept informed with lots of photos and videos of her progress. Highly Recommended.
Sarah Barras
We had our 6 month old energised, divine vizsla in care and train for 12 days whilst overseas. We were very anxious first time users- as always have used in home sitters with our other dogs. Our baby was too risky to leave at home, in case a door or gate wasn’t shut etc as he is very fast and not perfect in his manners yet. He had daily training at Kip, extra cuddles every lunch with staff, walks and enrichment programs. We have been delighted with his performance on his return- his excitement is huge but he can keep 4 feet on the ground, sit, drop, concentrate under distraction. It has been an awesome jump start on his behaviour. We rested knowing he was safe, well fed (regular weigh in) and daily video updates of our goofy boy. Strongly recommend.

The staff a friendly and loving. Always receiving pictures and updates always puts my mind at ease. I highly recommend kip as the cat place to be.

Extra Activities
At Kip Happy Stays, we know how important it is for your pup to lead an active lifestyle. When your canine companion comes to stay at a Kip dog boarding kennel, you can choose to add some additional playtime to their itinerary.
Dogs require a certain level of physical exercise and mental stimulation every day to be happy and healthy, so you can choose between outdoor play sessions, extra bushwalks, or even a full daycare session, depending on which location you pic. Our qualified team of expert Aussie caretakers will supervise and be there to provide lots of pats, toys, and treats!

Strapped for time on the morning of your getaway? Or perhaps you’re not able to organise a trip out to the dog boarding kennel before your big trip? Not to worry - when you book a stay with Kip, your dog will be picked up and personally transported from your home in our exceptional pet transportation service, meaning you don’t have to factor in another trip when you em-bark on your holiday. Your pet can enjoy a ride to our site, in the comforts of a secure, fully air-conditioned van. We offer dog transportation across Melbourne!
