Cage-Free Overnight Dog Boarding Benefits for Potomac Dogs
The biggest advantage of boarding at K-9 Divine is the cage-free environment—the ranch allows dogs to run, play, and explore in safely fenced fields instead of being confined. Dogs that have previously reacted poorly to crates typically thrive, enjoying greater relaxation and more socialization opportunities with other dogs.

Specializing in Low-stress, Kennel-free Dog Boarding
Boarding a beloved dog can be a challenge, but it can also offer peace of mind during your time apart. When you can’t bring your dog along, a trusted local boarder becomes essential. K-9 Divine’s cage-free dog ranch provides the comfort and play your dog deserves, lessening stress and separation anxiety by keeping dogs out of crates, with the possible exception of meal times.
In addition to our extensive fenced outdoor area, we have plenty of comfy, indoor lounge space, with attentive supervision throughout each stay.

The ranch’s indoor-outdoor setup prioritizes both physical and mental health for every guest.

“Used several times. After the first the dogs went running to the door.
Extremely well organized and careful.
Love that they require a test visit.
Worth the drive”
“Our dog starts wagging her tail and pulling toward the door every time we drop her off. She comes home and sleeps like she’s run a marathon! Pleasant, knowledgeable, and professional staff. They get to know each dog’s personality and can care for them accordingly so they have the best stay possible. Would not want to take our sweet pup anywhere else.”
