Peaceful, Supervised Sleepovers for Happier, Rested Pups
Crate-Free Overnights in Chicago
When the day winds down, your dog deserves a safe and soothing place to rest. At The Doggy Dojo, our crate-free overnights offer a cozy, home-like experience where your pup enjoys comfort, companionship, and calm — never confinement.
A Spacious, Climate-Controlled Play Environment
Your dog stays in our furnished DOJO apartment space, designed to feel familiar and relaxed, with couches, soft lighting, and a peaceful atmosphere. A team member stays overnight, turning bedtime into a supervised slumber party full of warmth and care.
Every overnight stay also includes daycare playtime, so your dog spends the day socializing and moving before settling into a restful night of sleep.
A Home Away From Home
Our DOJO Inn provides a fully furnished, apartment-style environment with cozy furniture, soft beds, and a calm setting — no cages or kennels, ever.
Human Supervision All Night
A team member stays overnight with the pups, offering gentle reassurance and companionship for a low-stress experience.
Daycare Play Included
Every overnight stay includes full access to our crate-free daycare, ensuring your pup enjoys a day of fun, play, and enrichment before bedtime.
Stress-Free Rest for Every Dog
We create a balanced routine that mirrors home life — movement, socialization, relaxation, and calm recovery — so your pup sleeps peacefully and wakes up happy.
Health & Safety Standards
Your dog’s well-being is at the heart of everything we do. To ensure a safe, healthy, and harmonious environment for all pups, every dog must complete a Meet & Greet evaluation prior to their first stay. This allows us to thoughtfully assess temperament, comfort levels, and group compatibility.
All dogs are also required to be current on Rabies, DHPP, Bordetella, and Canine Influenza (H3N2/H3N8) vaccinations to protect the health of our entire community.
Our facility is cleaned and sanitized daily, fully climate-controlled, and continuously supervised by our trained team—so your pup can relax, play, and rest in a space that’s as safe as it is welcoming.
What Crate-Free Overnights Means at the Dojo
Crate-free overnights are ideal for dogs who love human companionship, feel most comfortable in cozy spaces, and prefer rest without confinement.
It’s a great fit for families looking for a low-stress overnight option, as well as pups who already attend daycare and simply need a safe, familiar place to stay a little longer—or overnight.
For Pups Who Love Cozy Company
Perfect for dogs who enjoy human companionship and social rest, this experience offers a calm, connected environment where pups can unwind without being confined.
A Calm Night, the Dojo Way
Designed for dogs who feel most at ease in cozy, home-like spaces, our crate-free overnights provide low-stress care that helps pups relax, reset, and sleep peacefully.
An Easy Fit for Busy Families
