Powder River Kennels - Olivehurst, California

Thank you for taking care of my fur babies. We are new to the area, and choosing a reputable groomer can be nerve-wracking. We chose Powder River based on the positive reviews, and we are very happy with their service. We got a full groom for Burnzie - male 8 years old and a nail trim for Marleau - male 3 year old dog, both 15 lbs. Marleau is afraid of his own shadow, and this was his first experience being dropped off with a groomer. Both dogs were calm and in good spirits at pickup. It is a relief to have found an experienced groomer near our new home. Thanks again, see you guys soon!

We have had our Mini-Aussies groomed at Powder River Kennels twice. They did a great job. My dogs looked and smelled wonderful. They seemed very happy and calm when I picked them up. The prices are reasonable.

Cheryl is an incredible sheltie breeder. She cares so much about her pups and about the families taking them home. She is extremely thorough with understanding her dogs down to their genetics.

She is also very generous with her time. When we went to get our second sheltie from her (the first one was also from her!) we asked some questions about grooming and she gave us a whole sheltie grooming lesson which was so helpful! She also spent time to wash our new puppy and taught us how to handle ear gluing.

After going taking our puppy home, she has continued to be responsive with any questions or support we need, just like she had been with the sheltie that we got from her four years ago.

I bought the most loyal companion in the form of a female Brittany named “Ticket”from this kennel 13 years ago. I cannot express in words how special this dog was To me.Great hunter, affectionate and the most loyal dog I’ve ever had! She never left my side when she was in my presence. Unfortunately she passed away two weeks ago 10/1/21. I will miss “Ticket” dearly.

We had our first visit with Cheryl today for a nail trim. She took FANTASTIC care of our 12.5 year old male lab.

Due to her vast experience and knowledge, she noticed issues with his rear legs and gait. She described in detail the cause and recommended exercises and a brace that will help our boy live a healthier and longer life. I want to mention here, she was not SELLING any of these products or treatments, she just wanted the best for our boy, and her insight was spot on for some of the symptoms he had been exhibiting on occasion. I feel I received ALOT more than just a simple nail trim from Cheryl, and will be taking our boy "Jack" back to Powder River Kennels to receive the best of care.

Thank you Cheryl and Kathy!!

I purchased a Sheltie pup from Cheryl. I could not be more please with the new addition to our home. A picture of the gorgeous pup is below. I recommend anyone looking for a Sheltie contact Powder River Kennels. A few weeks later I was having difficulty setting the ears correctly. She reset them and offered several suggestions. She has some beautiful Sable Shelties. UPDATE Trey 19 week photo of this gorgeou Sheltie.

Toto was 2 years old when we got him and had never been groomed. Powder River Kennels did such a great job and made him feel unafraid.

Cheryl is very knowledgeable. She is amazing handler. Cheryl has been kind enough to share her knowledge of the Shelite breed with me and my family. I am impressed by her professionalism and care for the dogs in her care.
