Dog boarding near Yosemite (east side of Sierras)??

Driving to Yosemite from Denver for a few days of climbing before continuing on to other destinations.  We will be bringing our dog but the only part of the trip she can't join for is climbing in Yosemite.  We have searched out dog boarding facilities on the eastern side of the Sierra (Mammoth, Bishop) and it seems like a lot of them have shut down?  Also looked into Rover but the options are nearly nonexistent.  We are trying to find boarding on the eastern side because once we leave the valley we're heading back east to NV/UT.  Does anyone have any ideas for a place that might be able to help us out.  Any suggestions would be appreciated!

There's a service called Buck's based out of the Mammoth area that is very highly rated. I haven't used it but I spoke to Buck on the phone when I was planning a trip recently and it sounded great. Requirements include a well-socialized dog with strong recall (he takes the dogs for several miles of hiking off-leash, a' la Cesar Milan) but as long as you meet his requirements it sounds like a doggy dream.

Look up Sierra Dog Ventures in Mammoth Lakes. She's fantastic!!

are you coming in via 80 or 50 (i.e. through tahoe?)

Court, looks like we're coming in further south via Hwy 50 to Hwy 6 (through Warmsprings, Tonopah, etc)

There is a family with a ranch in Lone Pine that is extremely affordable. I can't remember their name and number but if you call Elevation Sierra Adventures and talk to the owner (John) he will be able to refer you.
