WASHINGTON, DC, December 16, 2025 /24-7PressRelease/ -- K-9 Divine Dog Ranch is revolutionizing pet care for Washington DC area residents by offering dogs a true vacation experience on an 80-acre Southern Maryland ranch, complete with complimentary van transportation from the nation's capital.

Unlike traditional boarding kennels that confine dogs to crates and small runs, K-9 Divine provides a cage-free environment where dogs roam freely across 15 acres of secure outdoor space and 7,000 square feet of climate-controlled indoor facilities. Dogs are only kenneled during feeding time, spending their days and nights playing, socializing, and exploring the expansive property under 24-hour staff supervision.

"Dogs thrive when they have the freedom to be dogs. When they're able to run, play, and socialize in a natural environment rather than spending their days confined to a kennel," said Rachel Jones, owner and head trainer of K-9 Divine Dog Ranch. "Our 80-acre ranch gives dogs the space and stimulation they need, while our 24-hour supervision ensures they're safe and cared for around the clock. We've seen firsthand how much happier and healthier dogs are when they're not caged." Jones is a Certified Pet Dog Trainer (CPDT) and AKC Canine Good Citizen Evaluator with over 20 years of experience, including work as an on-set trainer for National Geographic's "My Dog Ate What?"

The demand for high-quality, humane pet care continues to grow in the DC metropolitan area as pet owners increasingly prioritize their dogs' physical and emotional well-being. K-9 Divine addresses this need by combining convenient city pickup with the benefits of a country environment, eliminating the stress of long drives for busy professionals and frequent travelers.

Complimentary Van Service Eliminates Travel Hassles

K-9 Divine offers free pickup and drop-off service from select DC zip codes (20001-20011, 20015, 20016, 20037) with morning pickup windows (9:00-11:00 AM) and evening drop-offs (5:00-8:00 PM). This convenience allows urban pet owners to provide their dogs with a rural experience without the two-hour round-trip drive to Southern Maryland.

Comprehensive Services Include:
• Cage-Free Boarding: Dogs grouped by size and temperament for safe socialization with complimentary van service available
• Professional Training: Positive reinforcement methods using clicker training and treats—no shock collars, prong collars, or aversive techniques
• Board and Train Programs: Intensive one or two-week programs combining boarding with daily training sessions

The facility maintains transparent communication with pet parents through daily photos posted on social media and welcomes phone calls from owners checking on their pets. Military members and first responders receive discounts on all services, while multi-dog households and extended stays also qualify for special rates.

K-9 Divine Dog Ranch is a premier cage-free dog boarding, daycare, and training facility located on 80 acres in Nanjemoy, Maryland. Founded by certified professional dog trainer Rachel Jones, the facility serves the greater Washington DC metropolitan area including neighborhoods throughout DC, Maryland (Waldorf, Clinton, Accokeek, La Plata, Fort Washington, Chevy Chase, Bethesda), and Northern Virginia (Alexandria, Arlington, Woodbridge). All training uses positive reinforcement methods exclusively. For more information, visit www.k-9divine.com or call (202) 769-5359.
