Siedihit Pop-Up Portable Pet Playpen

Words · Craig & Sammy · ASIN B0CFQQN6KP · Filed under  Travel Crates & Kennels

“Sammy's 3.2 kg so the Small fits him fine for pen time—easy fold, comes with a bag. The zipper's the weak point though; I'd expect it to hold up better at this price.”

Sometimes your Yorkie needs more room to move around than a traditional crate allows, but you still need to keep them safely contained. This portable pop-up playpen is a brilliant solution for Yorkshire Terrier owners who want to give their pup some freedom while maintaining boundaries. Perfect for Yorkie puppies who are still learning the rules of the house - you can set up this playpen in any room while you work, cook, or just need to keep your tiny friend safely contained. The tent-style design is lightweight and easy to transport, making it ideal for travel, outdoor picnics, or visits to friends and family.

Yorkies typically weigh only 4-7 lbs, so the mesh walls are more than sturdy enough to contain them while providing excellent visibility and ventilation. Great for creating a safe space in hotel rooms during trips or keeping your Yorkie contained at outdoor gatherings. Folds flat for convenient storage when not in use. A versatile containment option that supplements your regular crate training routine.

Verdict
Worth it

What owners loved

  • + Dead easy to set up and take down (121 of 126 positive mentions); folds flat with carrying case included
  • + Spacious enough for small dogs and kittens to move around comfortably (158 of 204 positive size mentions)
  • + Durable netting that resists scratching and holds its shape for most users (185 of 221 positive quality mentions)
  • + Lightweight and portable for travel or moving between rooms

Watch for

  • Zipper durability is a recurring problem: 115 of 258 foldability mentions report zippers failing, breaking or coming off track within weeks
  • Mixed sturdiness—61 of 126 users report it tips over easily or collapses when pets play (particularly a problem for determined chewers)
  • Durability concerns with active puppies: 102 of 165 negative durability mentions cite chewing damage, unravelling, or failure within 1–2 months

What owners say

From the reviews.

Strong approval for kittens and calm puppies—160 of 183 positive mentions confirm it works well as a containment space for young, quiet animals. Customers consistently praise setup speed and portability. The real split is durability: quality scores lean positive (185 of 221), but durability and sturdiness are contentious. Active puppies, determined chewers, and rough play expose flimsy zippers and thin fabric; calmer pets and older animals have better luck.

Customer questions

Things people ask.

Q01. Will this hold a small puppy or kitten for travel? +

Yes. Multiple reviewers confirm it works for travel with small animals (15 lb dachshund, tiny kittens, senior Shiba Inu). It folds flat, comes with a carrying case, and the top zipper provides ventilation. Best for animals under 10 lbs; larger dogs may find it snug.

Q02. Is the zipper reliable? +

No—this is the most reported failure point. 115 of 258 foldability mentions describe broken, jammed, or derailed zippers within weeks to months. If the zipper is critical to your setup, expect to replace or reinforce it.

Q03. Will an active chewer destroy it? +

Likely. 102 of 165 durability complaints cite chewing damage, holes, and unravelling within 1–2 months. One reviewer's mini dachshund popped the zipper and chewed through the side material. Works best for non-chewing or calm pets.

Q04. How sturdy is it for jumping or roughhousing? +

Mixed. 61 of 126 sturdiness mentions report it tips over or collapses during play. Some users say it held up to weight leaning against it, but others' pets knock it over easily. Lightweight construction prioritizes portability over stability.

Q05. What's the right size for a small dog or kitten? +

The Small is suitable for single kittens, puppies, or Yorkies (~3–5 lbs). One Yorkie owner confirmed easy setup and perfect fit for bedtime. Medium works for dogs up to ~15 lbs. Multiple reviewers note the Small is too cramped if you want to add a litter box.
