Pat's Boarding Place for Cats

It's been years, but I just thought of this place as I am looking for a dog hotel for my dog, wishing Pat's Place for Cats had one for dogs.  My cat stayed here for 4.5 months while I transitioned to living abroad. Pat's Place took excellent care of her; she was well loved, had plenty of space to be a cat, and when she was picked up by a pet courier service and delivered to me in Scotland, she arrived very well-adjusted and happy. This place has been in business for decades for a reason. I even remember my mom taking her cats here back when Pat still owned the place. Sandy was an excellent person to take over and continued the legacy. More...

There is no one else I would trust my cat with. They make sure my cat is safe and happy. They have a fully fenced (including ceiling) outside area where cat can enjoy some fresh air too. I have been using Pat's for years and will continue coming here. Prices are reasonable and for a few extra dollars your cat can have a window or a suite. More...

We left our year old cat at Pat's for 10 days and he loved it. We did the pre-visit and found that they are truly cat loving people. I called to check on our cat while we were gone and they reassured me every time that he was doing fine and making friends. Sure enough when I arrived to pick him up, he was socializing and enjoying the "catio". My husband and I also noticed that our cat seemed a little depressed when we brought him home, like he was missing all of the company and attention he received. I've already booked his second stay at Pat's. More...

You know...it's peace of mind when you are on vacation and knowing that your cat is well cared for and happy. I got weekly updates on how our Luna was doing plus pictures posted on Instagram.  The nicest people too. We highly recommend this business and will be back when we go on long trips again. More...

Best place to leave your kitties when going out of town. Never worried one time if my cat wasn’t being cared for. The staff is great and truly takes the time to get to know each animal. My Moo hates going anywhere but warmed up and made new friends by the end of her stay. HIGHLY recommend! � More...

My family and I have been taking our cats to Pat's consistently for the last three years. I never worry about dropping Mr. Meows off to his comfy, spacious kitty condo, rather I worry how I'll be able separate him from his feline buddies and the elaborate climbing structures on the catio when it's time to be picked up! Daily rates are very affordable for the basic kitty condos (not to mention socialized kitties get plenty of roaming time, anyway), but I feel the peace of mind I get leaving Meows with people who genuinely look out for and care about him is priceless. Even the pickier cats in our family have warmed up to the vibrant environment and enjoy when staff pet and talk to them. Management always does their best to be accommodating with special requests (extra observation for senior/recovering cats, medicine dosages, special feeding instructions, and short notice reservations), which we could not be more grateful for when there is already so much stress involved in traveling.From short weekend trips to longer, international vacations, Pat's has been our go-to home away from home for all our cat-care needs. I love hearing updates about who's made new friends with whom, and about the progress our timid kitties have made by coming further out of their shells with each visit. This kitty luxury resort and the loving, attentive humans who run it have made my family's life and the lives of our feline friends so much easier. Here's to many more vacations and visits to come!

We had a stellar experience at Pat's over spring break when they watched my tabby for nearly a week. The place is set up just for cats and it's clear that the staff there have a love for cats - they know every cat's name and their personalities! There are plenty of places for cats to climb and play and a nice "catio" so my cat could bask in the sunshine. Also cat treats! My cat stayed in a condo with a window so he could peer outside whenever he wanted. I emailed the owner and checked in on him and the owner responded in a timely manner and gave some great reports back about what he was doing and what he was enjoying - it was a nice personal touch and made us feel good about him being there while we were away. When I came to pick him up, he actually clung to the cat tree and didn't want to go home! We will definitely bring him back again. More...

Pats understands cats. Bucket and I have had nothing but wonderful experiences with the staff who truly care about his well-being. After our first experience boarding at Pats, the caregivers knew so many details about Bux - for instance, after you scratch his head for awhile he sticks his tongue out - that it was obvious they had spent quality time with him. On vacation, I can truly relax because I know Bux is having his own safe adventure at Pats. More...

I picked up my old-man-cat, Zorro, from Pat's Boarding Place yesterday. He was the MOST relaxed he has ever been when I return from vacation. While he was very happy to return home (he was purring in his carrier when I took him out of the car), he wasn't nearly as clingy or distressed as he usually is when I get back from a trip. I will definitely be using their services again! More...

We love Pats.  For strangers...they love your cats like they were their own..very caring and are sensitive to the level of 'spoiled' one exerts on their own feline friends. When we are out of town for more that a couple of days, we always book a 'room' at the Kitty Hotel.The only downside is similar to any pre-school...after a week, your cat comes home with an 'accent' from the other roommate cats...ha More...

Had my old girl, Mittens, stay here for 9 days in June. She loved it, and we loved it too because the staff was very accommodating and helpful, especially since Mittens needed to finish a round of medication while she was there. The facility is clean and the humans and cats there were very friendly. They were able to give me great feedback for how she behaved when I came to pick her up. The price was unbeatable at only $21/day, and she got a spacious, well-maintained outside facing kitty condo. Loved this place and would recommend to anyone who has a feline friend who could use a vacation while you're on your vacation More...

This place just gets it. They fully embrace everything there is about being a crazy cat lover and epitomizes it in this boarding inn. Every staff member genuinely wanted to be there. I felt like I belonged. Variety of food choices, giant climbing tree, cute patio. They let the cats socialize amongst themselves, which I think is good because I want my furry friends to make more furry friends.This place maxed out around 75 cats for the July 4th weekend, and I expect it to be pretty popular all year round. So many beautiful breeds of cats to see!Responsive to emails and phone calls, and easy to make a reservation. On drop-off day: Fill basic forms, show proof of updated vaccines, and off they go. Prices vary depending on the type of room you select, but significantly more reasonable than the other boarding inn I used.Will gladly take Milo & Dixie here next time. More...

Pat's Place was recommended to me by a friend after I complained on Facebook about the horrifying prices that were quoted at the "pet hotel" attached to my veterinarian's office. To board ONE cat at the vet's pet hotel, I was looking at close to $50 per day (which would have included 10 minutes "petting time" and 10 minutes "out-of-the-cage time".) At Pat's Place, I was able to board both of my cats for $36/day total, and they were allowed free roam of the inside and the enclosed back patio for several hours per day. The "rooms" (cages) are much larger at Pat's Place than at the vet's hotel, and both of my cats were able to share a double-sized enclosure. The people working there were very nice, and all the cats roaming around seemed very happy. I'll definitely take my kitties back in the future and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this place to friends. More...

I recently took my cat, Woodchuck, here for the first time. I was having to spend a little time in the hospital, and needed someone to look after my kitty for a while. I was anxious, because he doesn't usually do well in new settings, but he likes both people and other cats so I figured a place like Pat's would be good for him. I was still very anxious about how he would do, however.The folks at Pat's were excellent, from when we stopped by the look at the facility, to making short-term reservations, to answering my questions about how Woodchuck was doing. They even posted some photos, and he seemed to be fitting in real nice! He had an excellent time, and for a price that's only a few dollars a night higher than somewhere that leaves your cat in a cage almost all day every day, he got to wander and socialize and be happy.I will absolutely be bringing him back here for future boarding needs.

I boarded my cat, Jasmine, just recently and I am very happy with the care. She had never been boarded before so I was nervous about leaving her for nearly 3 weeks. Sandy and the staff were just great. I called and emailed several times to check on her and they were very responsive (they even posted a photo of her). Jasmine is rather shy and it took her several days to adjust, but they gave her attention and love and pretty soon she was in the routine and spending time on the patio. I will most certainly use them again. Thanks Sandy and all the staff! More...

I am so happy to have found Pats Boarding Place for Cats.  I was able to do a walk through before the boarding date so when I boarded my cat I knew he would be in good hands.  He was able to go outside on the enclosed patio and clime the many cat trees.  The staff was wonderful and put me at ease when leaving my cat.  They posted on their Facebook page a photo of him during his boarding and that was comforting to see that he was doing so good.  I would recommend Pats Boarding Place for Cats to anyone who needs to board their cats.  It is a peaceful, happy place with no dogs barking and owners who really care about your pet.

I've been taking my year-old cat Diesel to Pat's since I got him last November.  I chose this place because it's only about one-half mile from my home, but from reports of other owners bringing their cats from as far away as San Jose and the Bay Area, I know I really lucked out.  The caring people and overall atmosphere here are definitely aimed at making sure Diesel is comfortable and happy in my absence.  I look forward as much to taking him here for "his vacation" as I do setting out on my own!  He absolutely LOVES it at Pat's, and like other owners have said, he seems reluctant to have me come take him home.  I get reports on how well he "plays with others" and apparently he's allowed outside his "condo" quite often.  He is a very inquisitive, outgoing and social cat so I know he always makes new friends when he visits.  And knowing that one of the sister owners is trained as a veterinary assistant adds a bit of extra comfort when it comes to his overall care.  I have often seen notes on condos there indicating that a cat needs a diabetes shot or other special medical treatment, and whereas Diesel has no need of these services, it's good to know they are available.I can't say enough good things about Pat's and just wish I had found it sooner!

How can you NOT love this place? Sandy, the owner, is a real cat person and gets to know each cat's personality.  The place is like Disneyland for cats, with all the toys and play areas. Sometimes I fear my cat (who LOVES other cats) doesn't want me to come to pick her up to take her back home. LOL That says a lot because I spoil my indoor-only cat and I really checked around Davis, Dixon and Sacramento before deciding this was the best place around. Have been going now for about 5 years.
