## Quick facts

- About 40 minutes, 29.8 miles from Lemon Hill
- I-80 15.7 miles, US 50 5.3, Highway 113 4.1
- $35 a night, $30 for each additional cat sharing a tower (2026 rates)
- Plain pricing: no add-ons for medications

## Lemon Hill numbers

Lemon Hill has about 4,468 households and 15,312 residents. About 60 percent rent, 51 percent have children under 18, and the median age is 29. By the national share, about 1,430 households would have a cat, an estimate from Census and AVMA data and not a count of cats.

For renters the stay price is the question. One cat for a week is 7 x $35 = $245 on the 2026 rates, and a second cat in the same tower is $30 a night.

## From 44th Street to Midway Road

The route leaves on 44th Street, Fruitridge Road and Golden State Highway, then takes 15.7 miles of Interstate 80, 5.3 of US 50 and 4.1 of Highway 113. That is 29.8 miles and about 40 minutes without traffic; the crow-flies distance is 20.6 miles.

Rush hour on Interstate 80 is slower than the free-flow figure, so leave time before the 5:00 PM close of the afternoon window.

## What is included

The tower, litter box, blanket and house cat food are included in the nightly price. Medications are given at no extra charge. The [cat boarding page](https://happypawskennels.com/cat-boarding/) has the full list.

## Before you book

Rabies and FVRCP records must be current through the last day. Check the [cat vaccine guide](https://happypawskennels.com/vaccines/cat-vaccines-for-boarding/), and see [cat boarding near Sacramento](https://happypawskennels.com/areas/sacramento/cat-boarding/) for a wider look at the city.

I love boarding my dog there because on vacation I know he'll be safe. Well treated heat and AC all is good. They send me photos of them and they're very very friendly staff. I highly recommend HAPPY PAWS to anyone.

Marc B., Google review, August 2026

I love this place and so do the dogs. They offers tours, have A/C and/or heat. They always look and smell super clean. They even filter the indoor air. They email pics of them playing. I have 2 large breeds that share a 1st class kennel. They even offer treats and baths. So nice to have a place I trust. Everyone is...
