Drive time is free-flow and runs slow on Midway Road; allow extra time. Yolo is a very small community in the 95695 and 95697 ZIP codes, with about 200 households, all renters. The Census data here describe a young population, and the page treats the numbers cautiously because of the small size. ## Quick facts - About 25.9 miles and 34 minutes - Highway 113 for 16.6 miles - 201 households, all renting - 80 percent of households have children ## Highway 113 most of the way The routing runs 16.6 miles on Highway 113, 4.5 on I-5 and 3.6 on I-80, for 25.9 miles in total against 22.4 miles in a straight line. Free-flow time is about 34 minutes. Apart from the Midway Road turn, there are no local streets to plan around. Drop-off and pick-up run every day from 7:30 to 11:30 AM and 2:00 to 5:00 PM. ## Cautious numbers for a tiny place The Census counts about 800 people in 201 households, all renter-occupied. Median gross rent is $1,803. The median year built is 1980. AVMA shares imply about 90 dog homes and 60 cat homes. In a place this small those estimates carry a wide margin of error. ## A family-sized budget For households watching costs, the Economy run at $52 a night is built for small and medium dogs, or a pair that fit together. Two dogs sharing an Economy run cost $52 plus $44. A week for two sharing dogs is 7 x $96 = $672 on the 2026 rates. Use the [stay cost estimator](https://happypawskennels.com/tools/stay-cost-estimator/) for your own dates. ## Before you book Children, dogs and cats all need a plan when the family travels. Pets must be 16 weeks or older with current vaccines, and records must be good through the last day of the stay. If you hold a deposit for a holiday stay, call 707-678-6600 to confirm.

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...
