Cat Sitters in Plum Valley, CA

Stacey and her family have become our beloved dog’s 2nd family. He loves coming to their property so much! She has taken care of him on a regular basis since he was a puppy, which has made it possible for us to do the traveling we need to do to visit family out of the area, knowing we could leave our dog with her and feel confident about his well-being while we are away. She cares deeply for every dog, tunes into them and their individual personalities, and is very empathic with both people and dogs. She is well aware of their dynamic as a pack, and makes sure to manage every dog’s well-being while they are under her care. She pays attention, and is very caring and comforting. We consider her our dog’s Godmother!

Our dog instantly loved the resort, and we feel so comfortable leaving him there. Stacey has been very welcoming and flexible and is a great communicator, and our dog returns pleasantly tired from all the play time.

Our dog Bandit had a great stay at the Crooked Rooster Dog Resort! They sent me regular pictures of him and daily communication about how he was doing. When I picked him up he looked super happy and tired from playing with all the other dogs. Will definitely use their services again in the future!

The Crooked Rooster Dog Resort is the ideal place for dogs. My dogs loved their time with Stacey. She is a real life dog whisperer. There is so much room for them to run around and so many friends to play with. Stacey treats every dog like they are family, even my lab puppy who ran through the garden and enjoyed barking at nothing what so ever before even the rooster woke up. It is such a great feeling to know that when we have to leave our dogs, they are not only safe and cared for, but blissfully happy. Highly recommend!!

Amazing experience. Stacey kept me updated with photos of my dog’s adventures. My dog had so much fun in their large fenced in yard, and came home so happy and tuckered out. Will definitely be back

Both my dogs and I always always have a great experience at this location. The hosts are very knowledgeable and kind. Stacey seems to know just what my puppers need for the day. Some times is lots of attention, too the freedom to just be a dog with all their friends that come. She also picks up on things for follow up with me in pick up times to ensure their best doggy life ever!

Our dog has been staying with Stacy for years – from being an energetic pup to a more mellow 9 year old. In all ages, he’s always been excited to come play, and always happily tired when we pick him up. He loves the large yard to play with other dogs in or to have quiet time investigating on his own. We trust Stacy and family with him when we’re on long trips and out of the country, knowing she’ll make good judgement calls if needed and give him nurturing TLC at his home-away-from-home.

We always take our dog to The Crooked Rooster whenever we are away. Stacey is kind and gentle we know our pup is well cared for. There is a very large fenced area for the dogs to run and play. Highly recommended for anyone needing care for their dog(s) while they are away, overnights or even just for the day!

Stacey’s is a great home environment for my GSD to stay at. A variety of other dogs to socialize with, plenty of room to roam around and play. Stacey is very nice and patient with Tule! I highly recommend Crooked Rooster Dog Resort. Bill P.

The Crooked Rooster Dog Resort is our #1 doggie day and overnight care in the Grass Valley area. Our dog Rocket is always so excited when being boarded at The Crooked Rooster. We know he's well cared for and has plenty of space to run about while socializing with the other fury guests. Stacey and her family are true gems!

Our little fur ball loves it here! This is probably the only day care he has been to where he made other fur friends! The staff is very caring. They usually have pictures and videos to show us from his day. They are awesome! Highly recommend them. We have used them for both full and half day daycare!

We have brought our dogs here several times in the last 6 months and so far have nothing but great things to say. The pricing is very reasonable and our dogs are always excited when they are dropped off which makes me feel secure in the …

This place is amazing! I took my dogs to be groomed by Mariah, and she was fantastic! She was very knowledgeable and answered all of my questions, and listened to the requests we made, and why. She did such a great job on my dogs, and …

I am heartbroken to write this review after what was, sadly, our most recent experience at The Kennels. My dog has stayed here multiple times before, with no complaints, and I've always loved the staff. However, this time was a completely different story. Upon picking up my dog, I was horrified to find that he was covered in urine. His entire legs were yellow, and his belly was soaked. When I asked what happened, I was told he had run through a puddle of urine. But this doesn't explain the extent of the mess. I was also informed that they had to bathe him mid-stay, but no explanation was given as to whether it was due to him being filthy with urine and feces. My dog has sensitive skin, so a call to me about the situation would have been appreciated, especially given the condition he was in. I was also told that he wasn't eating, which I've heard happens occasionally, but instead of calling me for advice, they decided to double-feed him at night. I can't help but wonder, were they even feeding him properly in the morning. And to top it off, I was told that he had been placed in the wrong kennel at first, and he was sleeping on a wooden crate. This raises further concerns about the level of care he received. When I called to voice my concerns, I was surprised to learn that the ownership had changed and that the new owner was not available due to his age. This left me feeling even more unsettled about the lack of accountability and care. Given the treatment my dog received this time, I will never return to The Kennels. To be honest, I feel that what happened to him could be described as neglectful, and I truly believe it's a form of dog abuse. I hope they take this feedback seriously and improve the care they provide to future pets. Response to owners' message: Thank you for your response, but I want to clarify that the point of my message was not to argue over who’s in charge, but simply to reference who I knew from our previous stay. That said, I feel like there are a lot of excuses being made here. First, it wasn’t raining while we were gone, so I don’t understand why my dog was wet. Of course, I understand you need to take him outside for bathroom breaks, but I don’t think he should have been left outside for extended periods. Do your outdoor kennels hold water, or was there another reason for him to be wet? As for his feeding, the schedule was not normal. He was only fed at night, and he received a double portion, which upset his stomach. This wasn’t the routine we discussed, and it caused an issue. Lastly, I don’t need to bring him back for another bath. I had to bathe him again when we got home because he was soaked in urine, not because he was dirty. I just wanted to address these points and make sure we’re on the same page. Thank you.

We’ve taken our Charlie to the Kennels for years and have always been happy with how well she’s taken care of. Cindi and the rest of the staff are so good to her and give her lots of love and attention.

I left my dogs for 13 days at The Kennels. One of my dogs is a Pit mix. They did not let his scary demeanor keep them from making friends with him. They gave him lots of love and excellent care.

We have been using Auburn Kennels for at least ten years. The animals love it and the care is wonderful.

My dog loves to go to auburn kennels. When I pick her up she always heads back to the door to go back in. She doesn’t want to leave. That makes me feel so good knowing she loves it. The staff is friendly, professional and they love dogs and cats. The kennel is in a beautiful area of auburn, hilly with lots of trees. I wouldn’t leave my pets anywhere else. I would chsnge my plans so my dog could stay there.

Great prideful owners. They take good care of all the dogs and the dog’s areas.
