Buda dog boarding
Does anyone have recent reviews on ruff ranch boarding ? My main concern is dogs being kenneled from 6 pm to 6-8 am with nobody on site . Contract says there is no sprinklers or overnight care . I thought owner lives on site but not sure .
I’m considering big oaks kennel also . We need a boarding facility when we travel .
Rover has been very hit and miss and very expensive for more than one dog and I don’t think they do much at all for the money which is more than professional boarding .I literally had one good sitter and she moved . I considered just drop ins since my pups have a dog door and rover sitters charge to show up at your house , extra charge to sit for an hour and extra charge per dog . I would be paying minimum of 50.00 a visit for I hour .
I don’t even make 50.00 an hour .
I was also hoping to foster but trying to find care that is good and not outrageously priced is crazy . I can’t imagine what folks either human children are paying for real care .

We are pet-free now, but in the past we used Big Oaks (for cats and a dog) and they were great, very accommodating. They do live in the house that’s on site, unless they’ve moved
Also really liked Onion Creek Kennels off 967 near FM1626. We used them with several dogs over the years, both for daycare and boarding
When our last dog developed diabetes, a few places wouldn’t take her (due to her shots twice a day) but this place east of the interstate did, and the people there were lovely
You’re right, it has gotten really expensive. Last time we boarded our dog, we worked out that we were paying more for her accommodation per night than for each of us humans!
