Rooster's Haven

Pet Sitting & Equine Services

Serving Reno, NV & the South San Francisco Bay Area

Welcome to Rooster's Haven

We are an "in-home" (your home) pet sitting service and we also provide Farrier(horseshoeing & trimming) Services. We specialize in large animal care including farm animal/ranches. However more then 1/2 our clients have smaller animals (cats, birds, dogs) and we like them too!

We have two locations, one in the Reno, NV area and the other in the South San Francisco Bay Area.

In 2006 we started having "Reno Rides" and we have several pages dedicated to that info. People can come up to Reno and bring their horses and ride out with a group.

In 2008 we adopted a Mustang Yearling, trained her and took her to the Western States Wild Horse and Burro Expo in Reno, NV. You can see more info on her click here.

In 2007 & 2008 we put on community horse shows in the San Francisco California, Bay Area. We held a Terri Lomax Memorial Horse Show where proceeds went to lung and breast cancer foundations. Dedicated to Terri and her horse: Zippo Loot (son of Zippo Pine Bar). Zippy is very alive today and still in use at 27 years old.

I encourage you to click on the menu and look thru our pages. Find out more about us and we hope to hear from you soon.

We are proud members of PSI, and are fully licensed, bonded and insured.

It's with great sadness we annouce the passing of Sarah Wetherill Okumura MA, RVT January 21, 1964 - October 16, 2009

It is with great sadness that we learned of the passing of Sarah Okumura of Morgan Hill, CA. Sarah was an accomplished rider, competing with her Mustangs; SunkaWakan and Montague. She was a Training Coordinator at the Stanford University School of Medicine and Reasearch Animal Facility. Sarah was a member of USDF competing this year in dressage with Montague.

Sarah competed in Rooster's Haven horse shows and won a buckle for Champion Overall Mustang in 2007.

See her story and tribute on the Western States Wild Horse and Burro Expo page:

Stanford will have services on Thursday November 5, 2009. We will post more info as we receive it.

We would like to honor Sarah this year at the Western States Wild Horse & Burro Expo in Reno. Check back for updates as we get more info.

Rain is great - but not for Starbuck 6/5/09

click here for more info

In June Starbuck fractured his rear left pastern. He wore a cast for a couple of months. When the cast came off the doctor said that it wasn't really healed and that it would take some time. It is now November 2009 and Starbuck is happy. He is confined to a 12 x 14 covered stall and a 14 x 14 attached paddock. He can walk on his leg but isn't able to run. It is very large in comparison to the other leg. We are still paying off his hospitalization.
