Interstate 505 to Midway Road

The route begins on Highway 128 and Hemenway Street, joins Interstate 505 for 7.4 miles, and then follows Midway Road. About 29 minutes is the no-traffic estimate; farm equipment on Midway can slow it.

Put the address, 6677 Midway Road, into your maps app before you leave, since the last stretch is a country road.

A small town with well-established households

Winters has about 7,600 residents in about 2,460 households. The median household income is about $123,000, 70 percent of households own their home and about 36 percent have children under 18. National AVMA shares suggest about 1,100 dog households and 800 cat households, an estimate.

Established households with yards often have more than one pet, so shared runs matter. Two dogs from the same home share a run at a lower price for the second dog; a 6x8 ft First Class run is $72 and the second dog is $61 on the 2026 rates.

Winters parks and animal services

Dogs need a current rabies vaccine and a local license, and the rabies record is the first one the kennel needs, so one visit to your own veterinarian covers both.

Commute and day care

If you work in Davis or Vacaville, the Winters day care page covers daily dog care at $38 a day. For cats, see the Winters cat boarding page.

What to bring from Winters

Really nothing but your pet. Bring one toy that is not the favorite, a slow-feeder bowl if your dog uses one, and original bags of food with the amounts written in cups if you prefer your own. House food is free. The boarding agreement is completed once, and the online account lets you upload vaccine records ahead of time.

Hours that suit a Winters schedule

Drop-off and pick-up run every day from 7:30 to 11:30 AM and from 2:00 to 5:00 PM, with the office closed in between. Check-out is by 11:30 AM, and an afternoon pick-up costs half of the nightly fee.
