Drive time is free-flow and runs slow on Midway Road; allow extra time.

Nearly 19 percent of La Riviera residents moved in the past year, so boarding often fills a gap around a move.

## Quick facts

- About 45 minutes, 33.5 miles from La Riviera
- Folsom Boulevard, US 50 for 10.7 miles, I-80
- $35 a night, $30 for each additional cat sharing a tower (2026 rates)
- Boarding charged by the night

## La Riviera households

La Riviera has about 4,398 households and 11,492 residents. About 39 percent rent, the median household income is about $97,975 and the median gross rent is $1,849. By the national share, about 1,410 households would have a cat, an estimate from Census and AVMA data, not a count of cats.

Many movers change homes in the summer. A tower stay of a few nights covers the gap between a move-out and a move-in.

## Folsom Boulevard to Highway 113

The route runs along Folsom Boulevard, then 10.7 miles on US 50, 15.7 on Interstate 80 and 4.1 on Highway 113. It is 33.5 miles and about 45 minutes without traffic.

Drop-off windows are 7:30 to 11:30 AM and 2:00 to 5:00 PM daily.

## A moving week

Four nights between leases is 4 x $35 = $140 on the 2026 rates; ten nights is 10 x $35 = $350. The [moving house page](https://happypawskennels.com/occasions/moving-house/) explains how boarding fits a move.

## Records

Rabies and FVRCP must be current through the last day. The [cat vaccine guide](https://happypawskennels.com/vaccines/cat-vaccines-for-boarding/) has the timing.

## Booking from La Riviera

Request your dates through Book / My Account, upload rabies and FVRCP records and sign the boarding agreement once. The kennel confirms every reservation, and the balance is due at pick-up. Tours run every day, 9 to 11 AM and 2 to 4 PM, with no appointment, and a staff member walks with you.

If the move date shifts, call 707-678-6600. Stays are charged by the night like a hotel, so an extra night is simply an extra $35 on the 2026 rates, and check-out is by 11:30 AM on the last day, so a late move-in only adds a night or two.

Deanna M., Google review, July 2026

This place is fantastic! I have one super easy going dog and one that is very much the opposite, she takes a long time to be comfortable with strangers and can be aggressive.
