Sarah Hampson
Kip is a great facility for my dog to board at. She always enjoys going, always has a great time and is very well looked after! Also getting regular updates seeing her play with others always makes me feel better about leaving her!
Karen O'Rourke
I cannot recommend these guys enough!!! Our dog Sorsha loved her stay, she looked so happy in all of the photos and videos that were sent to us while we were away. Thanks Kip for looking after our girl.
Carolyn Barnes
Such a great place to leave our dog, the staff are great and she is always happy when we pick her up. The swim at the dam is a definite favourite as she gets to run and play with her friends. The photo's and video's put our minds at rest as we can see her running around. Highly recommend Kip Pet Resort to anyone looking to board their pet.

Has your pet been pawing to stay at a pet retreat?
What you need to know about your Boarding Visit
As pet pawrents ourselves, we know that leaving your pet for the first time can be stressful! Every trip to Kip includes your own room, supervised social or solo playtime, daily photo and video updates, and premium kibble meals, and we encourage pet parents to come visit the accommodation before the trip. Whether your dog loves running in our grassy yards, or your cat loves lounging in the sun, we’re sure your pet will have the best time!
To ensure everyone’s safety, please make sure that all pets are up to date with all vaccinations, and a certificate must be presented prior to check-in.
