Red Barn Dog Boarding

We Specialize in Socialization for Dogs

Boarding

Red Barn Boarding is a kennel-free one-on-one boarding facility. The dogs come to an open play area with boundaries and supervision. It will never be a free-for-all.

Includes leashed pack walks on our fenced 17 acres, and supervised leash-free play time and socialization in our secure, fenced yard.

There are five quiet zones or Zen pens. They are large 6×6 and 8×4 areas that dogs can be separated out to take naps or if they are being overstimulated,  are older or have medical conditions. Bringing your own crate is not allowed. 

I care for your dogs like they’re my own.

Please call ahead to reserve space for your dog. Holidays in particular may need to be booked a few months in advance.

A few words from our customers …

We felt lucky …

to find Red Barn Dog Boarding & Daycare when it was time for a vacation. It was such a relief to find a place where we felt Mishka was having as happy and interesting a time as we were.  Kathie’s kind attention to a dog’s needs and obvious affection for them makes this canine boarding facility unique. And the physical accommodations were top notch. We’ll be back!

Thank you, Kathie, for helping our homeless pets!

Kathie has been a long time supporter of the Humane Society for Inland Mendocino County. Most recently she helped a very pregnant dog named Haven deliver and raise 7 healthy happy pups in her home. Kathie took on this very big job like a breeze, in fact she even made it look easy. For those of you who have raised a litter of pups you know how much work it actually is. Our mom and puppies all received excellent care and Kathie was always in communication with our team about any needs they had. We are so excited that Red Barn Dog Boarding and Daycare is opening up, the dogs who will get to enjoy time there are very lucky indeed!

Kathie’s boarding facility is outstanding…

consisting of beautiful indoor and outdoor spaces. She takes excellent care of the dogs and makes sure that all their individual needs are met. Our dog Strider, a large Doberman, took an immediate liking to Kathie! She updated us regularly with pictures and videos throughout his stay. We are very excited to have such a lovely boarding facility in our area, and look forward to having Strider stay with her in the future.

They had such a great time…

We just picked up our three Boston Terriers from a ten day vacation at the Red Barn with Kathie, and they clung to her like they wanted to stay, they had such a great time! It was our first time boarding our brood, and we were so relieved to receive texts and photos (like this) every day, and see how much attention they were getting all day. They even got a bit of much needed discipline, as they are spoiled rotten. We highly recommend, it’s so convenient to Cloverdale, just fifteen minutes towards Hopland.

Kathie is the Best…

We boarded our 150# mastiff at her facility for a week. Her facility is immaculate, lots of space for dogs to move about inside and out. My dog and I Highly Recommend, paws down!

Kathie puts your dogs first.

I know my two are in the best of hands and well taken care of.
 Once you meet her,  you’ll see the love she has for your dog. She is knowledgeable on dog behavior,  this is important to me.  She takes her time letting the dog adjust to their new environment so they are most happy and are at ease. 10 stars for Kathie and her Red Barn dog boarding.

So thankful for the wonderful human beings

(Red Barn Dog Boarding, and Front and Scenter Dog Training) who helped Thyme realize that sometimes the world really isn’t so scary, and sometimes he can trust his ability to navigate challenges. Hooray for healing and growth! Survival of the nurture, instead of survival of the fittest. It takes a village!

Our Decker Terrier clearly loves Red Barn Dog Boarding.

As we approach on the country lane just outside Hopland, he wiggles and yips with excitement. When we arrive, he eagerly leaps from the car to run toward his home away from home. My husband and I love Red Barn for a number of reasons: Kathie McAdams, Red Barn’s owner, is devoted to dog welfare and makes sure that her canine guests are well-cared for. Hers is a small, clean, well-organized set-up, so the dogs have plenty of room for supervised play both inside the barn and out in the attached play yard. There are also a number of generous-size indoor kennels for time-outs and naptime. Upstairs in the loft, where the dogs sleep at night, Kathie has crate accommodations for a maximum of ten doggie guests, and if dogs are spending the night there, Kathie sleeps in a bed near the crates. We couldn’t ask for a more welcoming environment!
