How to Assemble Your Crate

COMMON FAQ'S

My dog has separation anxiety, is an escape artist, or is a large breed with high drive. Can this crate help?

Yes, the Separation Anxiety Crate is engineered to hold up to the strongest dogs and outlast other dog crates. Rock Creek Crates are built with an internal welded aluminum frame. This frame acts as a rugged backbone for your crate adding unparalleled strength, structural integrity, and safety. All external features connect directly into the frame giving your crate extra support where needed most.

What is the right size crate for my dog?

View our size guide to determine the best fit for your K9.

Do your crates have a warranty?

Yes, we offer a 10 year warranty on every crate. Click here for more details.

Do you offer financing options?

Yes, we offer financing through Affirm and Shop Pay. Click here for more details.

Can I order a custom color?

Absolutely! Add a custom color to your crate order.

Can I switch the direction of the door?

It depends on the crate. Stationary and Separation Anxiety crate doors can switch directions. Due to the nature of the hinge design the Collapsible crates cannot. Contact us with your specific needs and we’ll customize your crate to suit you and your dog.

Do you offer custom crate sizes?

The aluminum skins we use to build our crates are specifically designed for our listed crate sizes. As a result, we are unable to make custom sizes. We have a list of awesome people who make custom sized dog crates/kennels. Reach out to us and we’d be happy to share their contact information.

Can I take a Rock Creek Crate on a commercial airline flight?

Yes! The Stationary and Collapsible crates can become airline compliant with the IATA door guard and airline rails which can be found on our Accessories page. Each airline has specific requirements for flying with pet cargo; we highly recommend contacting your chosen airline in advance.

Are your crates crash tested?

We worked with the Center for Pet Safety when designing the newest version of our Stationary crate. Our Stationary crates were crash tested with Center for Pet Safety. Learn more here.

Reviews

Awesome company

"We adopted a second dog from a rescue group and immediately knew we needed to up our kennel game. My husband called Rock Creek at 8 am eastern not knowing this company is in the west. The owner answered the phone and had a detailed conversation about our needs, He later called back to confirm what he had in stock and shipped it out. We had the kennel in a few days and we couldn’t be happier. We bought them for both our dogs and they are both attractive and most importantly perfect for our dogs. Thank you Rock Creek!"

— John W. (5/5)

Great Crates!

"I purchased two collapsible crates for my bird dogs and Rock Creek knocked it out of the park with their customer service, quick delivery, and the 5-star quality of the crates. I needed the crates to fit between the wheel wells and under my Cap-Pack and still be large enough for my two pups. Rock Creek crates were perfect and they are actually large enough for two English Setters to share one crate. I got the collapsible crates so I would have room in my garage to store them out of season. Thanks Rock Creek!"

— Hugh P. (5/5)

Best crate ever!

"Very premium crate with incredible customer service, have one for my large mixed dog, and one for my Malinois. They are super easy to set up but also extremely sturdy, I use the tops for storage so that’s a big convenience factor. Both dogs seem super happy in them like a dark little den, with plenty of breathing holes. Worth the price!"

— Lorenzo B. (5/5)

Finally! A Houdini-Proof Crate!!

"This thing is SOLID!!! And my Houdini dog can't bust out! We've only ever had wire crates so this is a significant step up, I feel so much more comfortable leaving our pup knowing that she's safe. It also arrived within a week of ordering it which is awesome. More than that though, the customer service here is incredible."

— Blythe C. (5/5)

Collapsible dog crate

"We love our new crate from Rock Creek Crates. We have a pitbull/weimaraner mix that’s a freight train with separation anxiety! She’s big and powerful and this crate has kept her safe and unable to break through it. I’m happy we spent the money!!! The cost of the crate out weighs the cost of damaged doors and drywall!!! Customer service was so very helpful in helping me choose the right size."

— Carin M. (5/5)

Solid

"I might get a bit longer one if I could do it again, but my dog fits and it’s quite sturdy and will travel better than what I had before. Issue I ran into right away was I have hardwood floors so the inside of the crate and the crate itself were noisy but I just put a blanket under it like a rug and that’s ok now. Also not that these are not standard crate sizes, so you either need to get the pad from here or consult the size chart and get something that will fit inside if you want a bed as the floor is solid aluminum and my dog is not comfortable on just that."

— Jeremy W. (4/5)

What a great crate!

"The crate I ordered came with some damage to it due to shipping. Chalyce, from their customer service department, got back to me within an hour or so with a solution ready to go. The crate itself is great quality and stands up to my very insistent Akita. I can't recommend it enough!"

— Samantha S. (5/5)

Nice Crate But Not For All Dogs

"Don't get the collapsible crate if your dog shows any signs of separation anxiety."

— Natalie (2/5)

High Quality Crate

"The Rock Creek Crate's Collapsible Dog Crate is easy to assemble. The crate is well made, and the finish quality is very nice. My German Shepherd puppy loves this crate and has taken to it nicely."

— Raymond R. (5/5)

Well Made and worked to help Anxiety

"Our labradoodle was fine with his crate until he learned how to bend the front of his crate front and collapse the front piece in side the crate. Then the anxiety began. We used a famous all plastic crate at first but it took up my whole cargo area and meant we’d need 2 cars to travel with our dogs. The Rock Creek Collapsible crate was awesome. It’s easy to take down and put up. It also helps with the anxiety our labradoodle developed. We added the front bite guard to make it really dark and cave like. The dog doesn’t mind this crate and his barking has stopped as has the destructive behavior he exhibited with the wire crate. The customer service is hands down awesome. I’d buy again."

— Dawn (5/5)
