Dog Sitters in Mammoth Lakes, CA

We could not be any happier with Lauren. She was really great walking and taking our husky on an adventure while we were out snowboarding. She updated us with many photos throughout the day. Our husky is a puller, and she managed to take care of him really well. He had a long walk and came back really tired, which was great for the long ride back home. We highly recommend Lauren if you need a doggy daycare person in mammoth!

Where do I start? Just hire Lauren! First of all, Lauren made us feel like our dogs were the center of the universe. She gave them all her attention and made sure they were safe at all times. Second of all, she took photos and shared updates with us regularly so we knew the dogs were having fun. Third, our pitbulls are not the easiest of dogs, we admit that. They are older now and take extra care. They are also dog reactive and very protective but that didn’t phase Lauren, she loves pit bulls. Our dogs are great at reading people and they knew right away they liked her. We highly recommend Walk N Wags for the best attention and adventures, your dogs will thank you!

Lauren is amazing! She took extremely great care and lots of hikes and walks - she shared photos everyday my dog and I were so happy if ever back in mammoth with my Oakley she will be staying with Lauren

Lulu did a wonderful job with our puppy, and he was overjoyed to spend his time with her! We reached out to her just a couple of days before we needed to book her and were extremely lucky to have found an availability in her schedule on such short notice. The best part was that she was watching another dog that day who was the exact age as ours! They went on beautiful hikes together and Lulu kept me updated throughout the evening with gorgeous pics of their adventures. It was everything I had hoped for and then some for our puppy. I know he had a fabulous time and my boyfriend and I were happy to have the opportunity to play a round of golf and go to a nice restaurant while we were in town with him. I 10/10 recommend Walks ‘n’ Wags if you are looking for a responsible, caring, enjoyable daycare for your pup!

Lauren is an amazing dog sitter in Mammoth and I have booked her multiple times to watch my dog while I ski. She takes my dog on multiple walks per day and sends regular updates and photos, which is such a thoughtful touch. If you're looking for reliable and loving doggie daycare in Mammoth, especially while you're enjoying the mountains, Lauren is the best there is!

i highly, HIGHLY recommend lauren if you are recreating in the mammoth lakes/bishop area. she takes a lot of care to group dogs together based on size and/or temperament, which also allows her to give more attention to each dog in her care. this is especially true of my pup, who is very, very nervous around people he does not know. he immediately warmed up to her, which made me feel so good about leaving him in her care. i would not feel safe if my pup were in a large group of dogs running amuck with little oversight/attention. she is very thorough in getting all the information she needs about your pup, and takes lots of photos/videos of them while they are on adventures. i felt very comfortable leaving my fur baby with her, knowing he’d be safe, while hiking, playing, and having lots of fun with her and her pack.

We were on vacation in Mammoth and looking to go mountain biking but we couldn’t leave our dog and our friend’s dog at the campsite. We contacted Lauren with less than 24 hours notice and she responded so quickly and was available and agreed to take on 2 more dogs for the next day. She provided them with such great care and tried to meet their individual needs (one old dog that doesn’t tolerate heat and needs to pee a lot and a younger dog with a lot of energy). She took them on several walks and sent updates and pictures throughout the day. We would DEFINITELY use her again!!!

We come to Mammoth often and love bringing our dog but it limits some of our activities. This time we decided to find a sitter and am so glad we found Lauren. From the detailed questions she asked at the start, we knew we were in good hands with someone who cared and had a good understanding of dogs. Lauren kept us updated and sent the cutest pictures. My dog who tends to be nervous and anxious with new people warmed quickly. When we arrived on the second day for drop off, my pup jumped out the car and ran straight to Lauren, tail wagging, which continued to reassure me of the great care she provided. We will definitely be calling Lauren next time we are in town!

Lauren is amazing! We brought our boy Whiskey to her as a little man at 6 months old.. now he is a big boy at 85lbs and 18 months. From the start he loved her and always has a great time going for walks, hikes, playing in the lake, sun bathing or napping with her on the couch or his doggy friends. She is always on time and has such a sweet, fun, bubbly personality that dogs and people gravitate towards her. I trust Lauren with Whiskey completely and know he is in safe hands. We absolutely love her! She is our go to and top choice! We love the way she loves Whiskey like we love him and that makes this momma super happy!

Lauren is the best! I’ve joined her on a few walks and whether we’re on a paved path or a hiking trail she is always focused on the wellbeing of her four legged clients. From pups to seniors, small and large, she provides loving care in the sweet mountain air.

Your dog should have as much fun as you do while in Mammoth. Pup Hiking Company takes your dog on 2 hikes during the day. Our energetic dog leaves happy and tired.

Best doggie daycare! We often took my dog Echo hiking, but never had this opportunity to let him run wild with other furry friends off-leash before. When we went to pick him up, he acted so happy instead of leave quickly like he used to. So I think he had a good time. I certainly recommend this.

Mammoth is a special place for me, comes here at least once a year, and I was ecstatic I am able to bring my dog this season. They were attentive and answered all my questions prior to driving all the way up from San Diego. My 4 year old corgi, Ichiro, had so much fun hiking off-leash with the pack for the first time. I like how the first visit they spend time introducing your dog to the pack, WITH you in there to see how it goes. I often send him to daycares back home and I never got a chance to see the first visits. They also took time to update me mid day and that was greatly appreciated. I am glad Pup Hiking Company came to Mammoth. I will use their services every time I will be in town. Will definitely recommend to friends too.

Avi and his staff are the best! My male Golden Retriever, Mickey is 18 months old and has boundless energy so this is perfect for him to get some good, structured activity while I ski all day. We've attended at least 10 times and always a good experience, summer or winter alike.

Honestly, Avi and the crew at PUP hiking company are amazing! I have had the pleasure of experiencing PUP Hiking Company’s dog service for 2 years now and it always exceeds all expectations. Luna, our 5 year old pup, returns from the hikes so exhausted. Their genuine care for dogs are unparalleled. I was particularly impressed with their kindness and willing to work with us. It’s always a treat to see the pictures after the hike. I am making them a top recommendation for those wishing to explore with their furry friends. Their service is a testament to their dedication and passion for what they do. PLEASE USE PUP HIKING COMPANY NEXT TIME YOU ARE IN MAMMOTH!!

We are very impressed with the Pup Hiking Company. All of the staff we came in contact with were kind and knowledgeable. We rescued our German Shepherd from the animal shelter about 6 months ago and had never left her with strangers. Avi connected with our pup immediately leaving us with a great sense of ease. We watched Avi interact with other dogs and saw that he was very experienced and comfortable with the dogs. Our dog had a great time and came home exhausted from all the exercise and play. It was nice to have two fun days of skiing knowing our pup was happy.

I recently had the pleasure of using Pup Hiking for my dog Zeus, high energy Golden Retriever, while I spent the day skiing, and I must say, I was thoroughly impressed! The company's responsiveness stood out right from the start. Every question I had was answered promptly, making me feel valued as a customer. Their website is user-friendly, making the booking process smooth and hassle-free, which is always a plus. The service provided by Pup Hiking was exceptional. It's an ideal solution for pet owners who want to enjoy activities where pets might not be allowed, like skiing. Knowing that my dog was in good hands, getting plenty of exercise and enjoyment, really put my mind at ease. The staff seemed very professional and caring towards all the dogs, and my dog returned happy and tired after a day full of adventure. Overall, I highly recommend Pup Hiking. It's a fantastic service for anyone looking to ensure their pet is safe, active, and happy while they're occupied. A real gem for dog owners!

We were trying to find a way for our 1.5 year old dog to enjoy Mammoth as much as we do and Pup Hiking Company was the answer. I love that they don't just do daycare but they take them hiking. The peace of mind that they have GPS locators on them is great. She came home exhausted and happy (just like us after a day of skiing). My only suggestion is that they move the hours a little later for pickup since it takes a decent amount of time to get off the mountain and to the pick-up location.

This is the best company. Really excellent communication and awesome service, a lifesaver for our pups who had the best time. The photos they provide are so fun. Highly recommend.

Pup Hiking Company is the best! Our pup goes weekly and is always so excited to play with her friends. Thank you Avi and Heather for the love and care you give to our pup. We love knowing that our dog is out running around and not at home all day. You should send your dog, it is worth every penny! The pictures truly show how much fun all the dogs have.

Our Nami was well taken care of, she has not stopped prancing. She is a nine year old husky and it was her first grooming appointment. I was nervous but there was no need to be. She has never been this clean (or white hah), so much shedding was reduced, and her little paws were trimmed to perfection. Thank you for taking such great care of my baby!

Excellent service. Our pets received great care. They are difficult when getting their nails done. Piper and Bristol were happy pups and we will definitely bring them back again.

My dog has never been groomed before, and Spoiled Rotten took such good care of him! He came back with a beautiful new look, was so happy, and even had a brand new neck bandana that they gave him. They even let him stay after his appointment time while we were running around town doing errands and coordinating for our wedding.

They got back to me right away and we were able to book baths and haircuts for our 2 pups. Very friendly and they did a fantastic job!

Best ever... My puppy Mila was ALWAYS itching after she was bathed. Now she was washed at Spoiled rotten she no longer has that problem... Outstanding Job........

Our Niña liked getting groomed and spoiled here!

Kristen at Spoiled Rotten is the best. She always gets me in and takes great care of my dog.

My dog Buddy lost his regular groomer at PetSmart Costa Mesa. While on vacation here, my dogs got super dirty so I took them in for grooming. Spoiled Rotten Pet Salon did a Fantastic job with both of my dogs. Buddy has never had a better cut! Highly recommend!!! Thanks so much!!!

Takes great care of pets and they come out looking beautiful!

Perfect cut and amazing experience

Kelly is an outstanding and experienced dog trainer whom we had the pleasure of working with. We enrolled our 5-month-old mudi in the Puppy Kindergarten course, and Kelly's ability to explain and guide us through various training techniques was remarkable. Her expertise in canine behavior and her passion for dogs were evident from the start. We plan on continuing our training with the Advanced Course and possibly Rally or Tricks afterwards!

Sierra Dog Ventures is THE place to send your dog when you're out having a not-so-dog-friendly adventure. My dog Cole is my #1 trail buddy, but when my partner and I wanted to take a day trip to Yosemite, we knew it wouldn't be a good fit for bringing Cole since the park has lots of restrictions on where pets are allowed. Cole got to have his own adventure at "camp" with Sierra Dog Ventures while my partner and I spent the day in Yosemite. Since the trails in National Parks aren't dog-friendly, we would not have been able to pull this day-trip off it weren't for Sierra Dog Ventures. We left at 5am and didn't return until dark. But knowing Cole was having the time of his life with Christi and the dog pack meant we didn't feel guilty about being gone for the full day. Christi picked Cole up from our house and had him out for the full day (about 9am-4pm). We came home to a tired, happy (and still a bit wet from his favorite activity--swimming) Cole.

What a well organized store. The owner makes the best healthy dog treats at the store. And also has a Self service dog washing center. She has dog boots for hiking. Dog packs A great variety of food as well as dog sweaters and jackets.

Every time I come to this pet store, I get great service. The staff are always friendly and helpful. I've only come in winter, but I don't think anything would change in the summer (and I imagine that the self wash comes in handy). I've come here to get paw wax, a jacket and boots among other things for my dogs who were not built to handle the snow. When my poor senior dog was freezing her butt off, we took her in to get a jacket and someone helped us try on different ones to see which one fit the best. She doesn't really fit "standard" sizes and the person helping us (I assume the owner?) listened to our concerns and made some suggestions and we ended up finding a jacket that fit perfectly. We'd previously gone in to find booties for my smaller dog who kept getting icicles clumping in his toes, making it hard for him to walk. You will pay retail-plus prices for most of the MSRP items, but 1) it's a small town that's hard to get, 2) it's there when you need it and 3) most importantly, you're supporting a small business. I will definitely be back in the future.

We visited the store this past Tuesday. It’s an awesome store. We bought a Ruffwear roamer leash and some treats from their bakery. Tucker loved the treats so much that when we headed back down to OC on Wednesday, we stopped in the morning to get more bakery treats. This store has created a monster! Tucker is the most Velcro dog you’ve ever seen, but since we returned home we noticed at times we can’t find him. When we look we find him sitting here staring at the brown bag of treats on the counter. He will patiently sit there for a very long time waiting for someone to give him one. Can’t wait to visit this store again.

Super nice local pet store featuring lots of natural products and food options. Dog wash is a great deal as well. Would recommend

Lots of options, nice staff, my dog likes it so five stars.

Cute pet store located in a shopping center. I came looking to replace a toy I lost and the gentleman working helped me find an even better toy! Dog was happy. It's not a large store but they seem to have all the basics one would need for dogs & cats.

Came here for a few things while away for the weekend, and I so appreciated the helpful staff who let us try on life vests and was delighted by the dog bakery! Maisie loved the cookies and also loved her first swim thanks to you guys!

They have a selection of toys that are plastic free( see felted salmon pic) And super tall rawhide chews that my dogs loved

So greatful for this business! Only the best quality food and treats etc. For our babies!! Thank you guys for caring so much!! 💗The coolest home baked cookies for our kids, baked in the store, smells so good when they are baking!! Wow, thanks …

In from Montana and my little one shredded her harness on a hike. Came in and had one of the most amazing experiences finding the right harness for my little puller. She got to test it out, and we didn’t leave until it was on her just right. She LOVES her new harness, she was sad to take it off at the end of the day. Thank you for caring so much!! Very happy dog mom!

Our dog absolutely loves her stays at doggy day care! She is always excited to get dropped off and happy when we pick her up. They care for Jazzy like she is family!

Our huskies have been clients for many years, its doggie heaven being able to run free and play in the streams. They howl with excitement as soon as we turn off 395, realizing where they're heading. Our family is very grateful for such an amazing place to board our dogs.

We have day boarded our pups here many times - and when we ski mammoth our pups love it here. Last year we left the dogs for a couple weeks. It's like a vacation for the dogs - ponds and big wide spaces to run and play.

Beautiful grounds in Round Valley. The dogs run free during the day and are crated at night. There are no kennels and minimal oversight, but it’s clean. Smaller yards for smaller dogs. My thirty-five pound cattle dog spent the weekend here and was put out in the general yard with larger dogs with the aggressive pack and ‘dog park mentality.’ She came home with a deep scratch across her nose to just under her eye. That said, Donna’s Dog Ranch is not for every dog, but it’s heaven for some.

Amazing! They took such great care of my husky Nami. She was a happy tired pup when we picked her up. She got to romp around outside all day with her new furry friends and it was perfect. Editing after 8 months, we use Donna's every trip we take now, making it easy and stress free to travel! Nami knows where we are going when we turn off the highway and gets super excited. If I could give more than five stars I would.

We traveled up to mammoth and our really big puppy got to come here for a day while we were on the mountain. He had a blast. Allie and Judy were wonderful, very accommodating last minute, and kept our favorite little guy safe all day. He got to play all day while we did too! I highly recommend this place for boarding/ day care! We will definitely be using them again.

It’s hard leaving your fur babies behind even when you’re doing something exciting like hiking Mt Whitney. I am so happy we found these guys! Everyone was super friendly, including the other pups and horse! They did such a good job with our shy girl they had her bouncing around carefree and when we pulled up she didn’t even notice us! 10/10!

It's a miracle I ever found Donna in the first place. Her kennel is unlike any on Earth. Even friends who come to visit from down south admit they haven't seen anything like it before. Rusty the husky is very anxious and hyper-responsive, but he never turns down a stay a Donna's! Unable to explain how comforting it is to have a place you can leave your family member and not have to be worried if they are being taken care of and enjoying themselves!;*) Summer

Horrible experience. The owner (overweight man, poorly groomed, rude) met me and my puppy at the gate. My 10 month old chocolate lab puppy was super excited and jumping up and down as puppies do. The man took her leash and started YELLING at my puppy, “sit” “wait” and “down” while pulling hard on her leash. He then asked me if I had another collar (she wears a harness). I said, no and he said, “this isn’t going to work.” I asked for my money back and left. This man should not be allowed to handle anyone’s dog. I can’t imagine what he would have done to my puppy if I wasn’t standing right there. Jody Martin, Bishop, CA

Had a hard time getting a spot, but one I did I realized it's because this is a great place. The owners took time to get to know my dog during the intake and went the extra mile via text to let me know she was having a great time. We'll be back!

My senior cat was very sick and had a fever. They got her in that day getting her the antibiotics she needed. I was fearful she wasn’t going to make it last night but she pulled through and is getting much better this morning. Great vet listened to all our concerns, caring and experienced.

EDIT: Beau had a full panel of blood work and urinalysis done with his regular vet. I can now confirm that he was misdiagnosed at Alpen. He (thankfully) does not show any signs of kidney disease. ----- We were on vacation in Mammoth when my dog, Beau, started to have some symptoms reminiscent of a UTI. Alpen Veterinary was able to see him sooner than Bishop could, so I brought him here. What followed was a really strange experience... Dr. Teslaa seemed kind enough at first. He checked Beau out and ran a few tests, including an ultrasound, where everything seemed normal. We got to the urinalysis and they used a catheter, which I was in the room for. Beau did great but I'm not used to being there while a vet does something this invasive. The urinalysis showed some protein. Dr. Teslaa diagnosed Beau with kidney disease and said the cause was dental disease as he has gingivitis on his back teeth. He talked about a paper he's publishing about the link between dental health and kidney disease and how it's going to shock the veterinary community. His treatment plan: renal support supplements and antibiotics for 60-90 days at which point he recommends dental work. This was a lot to process (chronic kidney disease is not reversible) and I shed a few tears but tried to keep it together. I went into the lobby to pay out and when I finished, Dr. Teslaa called us back into the room. He showed me an ultrasound or x-ray from a dog that came in a few days earlier. He'd diagnosed this dog with kidney disease. He told me "This dog died the next day". Sorry, what? Beau is nearly 10 years old now, but he's been healthy his entire life. I brought him in for mild symptoms and left entirely panicked, feeling like I am already losing him. Dr. Teslaa seems knowledgable and maybe his research will genuinely make waves in the veterinary community, but he treated us like a case study.

Alpen Vet is so great! My kitty is on the feral side lol and they are terrific with our "Chola "! Highly recommend! Recently added a new member to our family, his name is Ponchito! My kitties both love Dr. Tesla and he truly loves them! 🐈‍⬛❄️😻 …

I can't thank Dr. TeSlaa enough for everything he has done for us. He's saved the lives of both my pets, dog and cat. He's been available for us nights and weekends. I've never known a vet so dedicated to caring for animals. I'll always be grateful for his help and kindness

My dog needed help while we were on a camping trip. I did not have phone reception to call around and find a vet, so I just showed up at the office, and they were able to squeeze me in. The front office manager was very kind and welcoming, and the doctor was great with my dog, who was shaking and terrified at first. He was wonderful at calming her down and treating her wound. I am so grateful to both of them for their help. We camp in the area a couple of times a year, and I am definitely keeping this office's information on hand, just in case. If we lived in the area full-time, this would be my go-to vet.

Dr. Teslaa is amazing and I’m very glad I found this incredible vet hospital! I was able to get easy help after hours and get a same day appointment after my poor dog had an emergency. We got my dog’s blood work back the next day and worked on a treatment plan from there; I had to leave my dog with them so he could get IV fluids and I knew he was in good hands, it’s clear that all of the wonderful people at Alpen Vet Hospital really care about your animals. Even better, everything was more affordable than when I would take my sweet old senior cats to the vet in the city that I used to live in! Really good vets can sometimes be hard to find and I feel very lucky to have found such a wonderful team here in Mammoth, I’ll be going to them as long as I live in the area and recommending them to all of my friends with pets. Thank you for taking such good care of my pup!

Had a good experience with Alpen Veterinarian Hospital in Mammoth Lakes. I was in the Yerington area and my Chiwennie got a foxtail in her ear in the late morning and 4pm they had it out. BTW, I had my fishing line in the water by 4:45! Thank you so much for the positive experience. The receptionist gave us a real accurate quote over the phone, which was extremely competitive considering it against my outstanding Vet in Tecate Mexico, Dipet's Medicina Veterinaria. Sorry, have to give a shout out for them, but I swear that I will NEVER feel stranded knowing that ALPEN Veterinarian Hospital is in 150 mile radius! Thank you Jason

We were in town for a vacation and our pup had Happy Tail Syndrome. They saw us 10 minutes after calling and the Doctor spent a lot of time with our pup, medicated her and wrapped her tail. He’s amazing! So thankful.

Dr. Teslaa is always so warm and caring and insightful about our dog. We have a 15 year old Maltese and he takes great care of him. We also live in Los Angeles and Sara is so lovely about sending me his meds if we aren’t in Mammoth. We feel very happy and safe bringing our pup to see them.

Best veterinarian experience my husband and I have ever had. Treated 3 of our pets over 6 years and by far superior in service and compassion. Best in town—highly recommend!

EXCELLENT!! 🐾💞🐾 …
