Meet the breeder
I'm the breeder behind Sierra Vista Labradoodles & Goldendoodles located in Orangevale, CA. We are proud of the support we give our buyers and of our commitment to continue to research and enhance the breed standard. Quality, health-tested, and socialized dogs are the principal components of our success as reputable breeders. We’re proud of the seamless transition our puppies are able to make as fun, lovable family members.
Gen’s experience
About Gen
Hello name is Gen McGarvey. I have been breeding doodles since 2003. Our family is full of folks who both love dogs and are allergic to them. Once we discovered the charm and beauty of low-no shedding, allergy-friendly Doodles (we breed both Labradoodles and Goldendoodles) we decided help introduce them to families like ours who otherwise, would not be able to enjoy dog ownership.
