Pet Gear Travel Lite Soft-Sided Dog & Cat Pen with Removable Top, Sage, Large

I got this for a whelping area for my female and it worked so well! I just left the door rolled up so mom could come and go as she pleased and a blanket over the top to help hold in the heat. The pups were warm and cozy, and mom felt great being able to come and go. When they grew and needed a little, okay a lot, more supervision, we left the door closed and took the roof off and mom came and went by jumping in and out using the sofa. Now that the pups have new homes we still use it for "time-out" when someone needs a break or a nap from the rest of our herd. All of our dogs will go in there and take a nap. They love it.

I bought this soft-sided pen so I can take my Chihuahua with me on travel. She already has a car booster seat for travel, but this is perfect for crating her in a family member’s home. Atractive, light but sturdy, and folds up flat. Much more room for her than a travel carrier. There is space for a K&H bed in matching colors, a pee pad, and water or food dishes. I’m so glad not to haul a metal crate around, and this gives my dog extra space. She is very comfortable and loves the zip door.

My 8-yr old Havanese Ernie recently required surgery for a torn cruciate ligament. Keeping Ernie happily contained and isolated/safe for 8-10 weeks from my rabunctious 10 month old puppy Fredo was and is challenging. I initially bought a 52-inch collapsible pen from a big box store and it worked well for a few weeks but proved big and cumbersome, not too sturdy. The PetGear 36" Pen is perfect. This pen is a great size, so I can leave it up indefinitely. Ernie utilizes the pen as his private getaway and he seems to enjoy the space. This pen is well made, attractive and easy to erect/collapse. Great purchase!

Excellent and convenient safe space for our kitten, we call it her playpen. We used it as a space to introduce our kitten to our older cats and to feed her. She is mostly supervised when in the pen. We read reviews where the sides cave in if there is intense play so something to be aware of. The other reviews also helped us decide on this pen.

I really like this pen and my 12 pound furbaby is comfortable in. Plenty of room for her and a couple toys plus space to move around. The only thing would change is the solid part of the top. I would like to have more of it to provide shade.

I have a 17-year-old cat with several health issues, and she has never gone outside. Recently she seemed very interested in doing so, however, so I bought this playpen for her to sit with me on the deck. She loves it! When she sees me taking it out the door she comes running because she knows it’s time to go outside. So far she has made no attempt to try to escape and is perfectly happy watching the birds and squirrels from inside.

I was very happy when I this pen arrived as my puppy had already outgrown his original pen. It is an attractive pen, easy to set up, and easy to maneuver. I was concerned about the sturdiness of the material and of the zipper but I was happy to give it a try. Unfortunately, the zipper barely lasted a week and my puppy was also able to bite holes in different parts of the pen. My puppy was in the pen primarily only for naps and at night when he was calm.

This play pen far exceeded my expectations! It's huge! All 3 of my little babies and their beds fit in it comfortably. I have Chihuahuas. Would be perfect for 1 large breed as well. The quality is superb. You won't find this at a local pet store. We plan to take it with us this summer on our camping trip as well.

We have a miniature golden doodle puppy with lots of energy and loves to chew!! We needed something for him to sleep in and stay tucked inside while visiting family over Thanksgiving. He had not done well with the crate so we were looking for something a little different. We ordered this and got it in 3 days before we left home. The first day we set it up and played by throwing the his ball in it and he would go fetch it. Eventually he sat down and hung out for a few minutes chewing on the ball. We left it up and started cooking dinner. When I looked over again he was stretched out napping in it. The next day we put his bed in it with the top on, which closes up the space a lot.

We played again and again he eventually napped in there. We folded it down to load into the car and he followed us and immediately jumped in the car. Throughout the trip he happily spent time in it - sometimes with us putting him in and others with him choosing to nap in it on his own. It was just what we needed! We have it sitting in the living room now and he is still enjoying it each day. He has scratched at the floor and the door - heavily at times- but we still have not seen any wear or damage. We are very pleased! … more

I love this item. Better than expected and the best part is my dog loves it too. Plenty of room to put her dog bed inside for comfort and full visibility Folds easily for transport
