A bulldog playing in the outdoor yard filled with toys at Sit. Play. Stay. crate-free dog daycare in Bowie, MD.

“OMG awesome awesome doggy daycare! My dog is crate averse and was asked to leave another daycare because he gave them problems about getting in the crate at break time. We loved them but this is a story of all's well that ends well. I Googled crate free daycare and Sit. Play. Stay came up. Shelby and her team are complete and total Rock Stars. When my dog realizes where we are going he leans forward in the car and starts to give me kisses. He is a bulldog who can easily succumb to heat and they are clearly skilled and have pools and hoses and ensure that the dogs are cooled down. I am so happy that I found them and leave my dog there knowing he will come home tired but happy.”

What Else They're Saying

"My two doodles love this place and so do I. The care is specialized, the team of staff are highly engaged and they enjoy what they do. The facilities are large, clean, and safe. I feel happy when I see my dogs enjoying themselves. This place beats all other places in Upper Marlboro hands down. I wish I would have found them sooner."

"My dog HATES being confined to a crate. My dog Hannah has been coming here for 2 years now. They always take great care of her. I never have to worry if she is in good hands. The greatest part is how happy my dog is to get dropped off in the mornings! From the dog paintings in the summers to the pictures with Santa you won't ever go wrong sending your dog to Sit. Play. Stay."

"I have an 11 year old male Olde English Bulldog and a 2 year old female Bernedoodle. My bulldog has what I thought to be pretty severe separation anxiety. Little did I know that Sit. Play. Stay. offers more love and attention than I could ever offer at home.

The crate free experience is just what my boy needed — he has literally eaten his way through several crates in the past. I received daily pictures and updates from the staff, they gave my old man his meds, and gave him the option to stay inside the fully HVAC'd space while my 2 year old girl played her face off outside.

I genuinely appreciate the interview process put in place to make sure every dog is safe. The staff always remembers each dog by name and the dogs are always greeted with a calm yet playful energy.

If you're on the fence about boarding as I was, look no further. Sit. Play. Stay. is more than worth it."
