I am not sure where to begin to explain the wonderful experience I had with Kip. After finding out short notice that I needed to fly home to New Zealand because of my dad being admitted to hospital. A friend recommended I contact Kip to see if they could take care of my dog Frankie. Nikki was a pleasure to deal with on the phone which was a relief given I was already highly emotional. She called me back within a short time to inform me that they did have space for Frankie and that I could drop him off after 2pm that day. This was the first time in the 6 years I have had Frankie that he spent time at a kennel so I was very nervous, but those nerves were eased with the welcome we received on arrival to Kip. While I was away I received daily photo/video updates and all I can say is Frankie looked so happy. This was very reassuring for me given how anxious I was about him staying in a kennel. I honestly cannot recommend Kip Brisbane Pet Resort highly enough and I will be using their services from now on when I need a place for frankie to stay.

Highly recommend KIP Brisbane Pet Resort for your pets accomodation and needs. I have a staffy who is very anxious and does not get along with other dogs due to trauma. I called numerous other resorts and they refused to take her due to her needs. KIP did not hesitate once about taking her in. They treated her like their own and were so loving and kind towards her. I could see she was very comfortable with the staff through the daily updates they provided and she especially loved the pool! I will 100 times over leave my fur baby with them again. Well done team 👏 🥰

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.

FAQs

Does my pet need to be vaccinated?

All pets must be up to date with their vaccinations and present a current certificate to the team. We are able to care for pets if they’re not desexed. Our vaccination requirements are as follows: 

  • Puppies may board 10 days after their final puppy vaccines as long as they are C5 or equivalent.

  • Kittens may board 10 days after their final kitten vaccines as long as they are F3 or equivalent.

  • Dogs must have an up-to-date C3 or better vaccine and an annual Canine Cough vaccination.

  • Cats must have an up-to-date F3 vaccination.

Does my pet need to be desexed?

We are able to care for pets if they’re not desexed. We do not take dogs in heat across our centres. To the extent your dog comes into heat whilst in our care, we will require an emergency contact to pick them up within 24 hours of being notified. We will not accommodate entire males in the same room as undesexed females (unless they're from the same fur family!).

Can you pick up my pet? When will the pet van come?

We provide door-to-door transport Brisbane-wide for an extra charge. Our driver will pick-up or drop-off your pet between 11am and 2pm, and someone must be home to facilitate the handoff.

Can I tour the facilities?

Absolutely! Simply contact us at [email protected] so our team can organize the best time for you to tour the premises. 

My pet needs medication! Can you administer it?

Absolutely! For an extra $5/pet/day, we can administer medication to your pets. Please provide all medication in a marked vet bag and provide enough medication for the entire duration of their stay.

My dog is a picky eater! Can I bring my own food?

We sure can, for an extra fee of $3/day! Please provide all required food, clearly marked and labelled. Please inform staff if your dog has any food allergies.
