Where Dogs Come to Thrive

100% cage-free daycare and boarding — on a real 25-acre farm.

Is Dog’s Day Right for You?

A different kind of dog care.

Dog’s Day Farm is Montgomery County’s only licensed, 100% cage-free/kennel-free daycare & boarding facility featuring acres of outdoor space— set on an idyllic, 25-acre farm in Gaithersburg, MD. We believe dogs thrive when they have real space to run, genuine connection with other dogs, and a team that treats them like their own. So while your pup frolics in the great outdoors or curls up in bed next to a friend, you can rest easy knowing they’re happy, healthy, and living their best life.

What Makes Dog’s Day Different
🌿
Real Farm Setting
Acres of outdoor fenced yards where dogs stretch their legs, explore, and simply be dogs. In contrast to indoor-only facilities, we prioritize a natural and spacious environment for every canine companion.
🏠
Truly 100% Cage-Free — Day and Night
No crates, kennels, or isolated suites. While others may promote “cage-free” care but still use “crate/rotate” methods, or offer isolated “suites” at night, we prioritize a truly open and social environment for our guests. While some dogs may benefit from some degree of isolation, that’s not our approach here. For dogs who thrive in an open, social setting — this is exactly the environment they’ve been looking for.
🌙
24/7 Personal Companionship
Humans are present with the dogs day and night, even sharing the same room during overnights — not monitoring remotely via cameras. Our hands-on approach fosters genuine connections with every pup. Low staff turnover means your dog sees familiar faces visit after visit, and those relationships often develop into deep bonds over time.
🧩
Built-In Enrichment + Add-Ons
Structured and unstructured play and group enrichment activities are woven into every day. We also offer 1-on-1 enrichment sessions as an optional add-on for dogs who want more.
💬
Our Communication Standard
Daily photos and honest updates — always. You’ll know exactly how your dog is adapting, and you can always reach us. No guessing, no surprises. Open, transparent, and always working to improve.
🎓
Professional Dog Care
Extensive team training in dog body language, behavior, group dynamics, and management. Several staff members are certified trainers. We’re also a Fear Free Certified facility prioritizing the well-being of every pup.
💛
Great Value
Our nightly rate is comparable to other facilities — but includes individualized care, enrichment, daily photos and updates, and more. Comparable in price, incomparable in what’s included.
