Pet Boarding You Can Trust
When you entrust Kip with your furry friend, your dog will have access to private and outdoor play spaces, with other pups to socialise with each day. We provide nutritious meals, an appropriate amount of treats, and endless pats for the more affectionate types! Your pup will have all the social time they need with other dogs but enough space to have well-earned rest when they need it.
Don’t want to miss out on the fun? Stay in the loop - our staff post frequent updates on social media and will provide you with daily photo and video updates. We know it can be hard to leave a dog behind, but often we find the hardest part is getting your doggo to leave Kip to go home!

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! 😊

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.
Charlie Sleiman
What can I say? My dog absolutely hated coming back home. He was grumpy, sad and couldn't be bothered for anything. While I wanted to snap him out of it, it was a sign of how much he had missed Kip Hunter Valley. It was important for us that wherever we left our fur baby American Staffy, Brutus, he needed to be on his own as he is quite reactive around other dogs. I knew straight away from reading the reviews and talking to Kip beforehand that this was the place from Brutus. Took a load off our shoulders. All in all we left him for 3 weeks and it was the best decision we made. We will definitely be dropping him off again.

Lovely place. Ange showed us around the place, explaining to us everything. She has a heart of gold & loved animals. ❤️ We are considering booking our dogs in for the holiday stay. One of my lab needs care assistance due to post surgery & they would be the best place to care for.
Dog Kennels Newcastle Pups Love
Luxury Villas
Who says you have to be the only one that gets to experience an extravagant vacation? Your furry friend can stay in one of Kip’s luxury villas. Offered at our Newcastle dog boarding location, your pup will be able to enjoy all the benefits of a private room and garden. Booking your dog into one of Kip’s luxury villas provides them their own outdoor grass yard, and a private indoor refuge with their own single bed. Here they can watch TV, play with their toys, or wrap up in a blanket, and all the while kept comfortable in a fully air-conditioned room.
Classic Room
Here at Kip, we stay away from the old kennel style of extensive, shared facilities. Our classic room options offer your pup their own special room with a comfy bed to rest their paws. All rooms are fully insulated at have lots of natural light, and even then, your pup will have plenty of time to go out and play in our outdoor yard during the day. We believe in the importance of giving dogs their own space, as even the most social dogs can become stressed or aggressive when sharing all aspects of their dog boarding experience.
Happy Dogs Are Active Dogs
Aquatic Adventurers
Available at our dog boarding Newcastle location, your dog will adore splashing and running around in Kip’s very own water park. Complete with water features and lovely shallow water for dogs to roll about in, it’s the perfect location for dogs to cool off from those hot Australian summers. Pools offer the ideal opportunity for dogs to strengthen their muscles and become more confident around water. Just like humans, swimming is excellent for the heart and lungs and gives some well-deserved relief to hip and back joints.
Roaming the Bush
As much as your pooch will love our Kip facilities, we know how important exploration of new sights and smells are in keeping their minds interested. If you choose to add a scenic bushwalk to your pup's boarding experience, a member of our team will take them to an outdoors location nearby so we can walk them around (on a lead!) and give them the chance to do some adventuring. A walk in the bush is the paw-fect opportunity to get some needed exercise whilst also learning to become familiar with new spaces and environments.
Social Play
Fresh air and grass are all your puppy will need to race off and play with the other dogs boarding at our Newcastle location. Dogs need to have stimulation and physical exercise, having other dogs to play with is a nice social bonus. Rest assured, your dog will be watched closely by our animal-loving staff, who are all well-trained in managing pups and keeping things under control if things get too crazy.
