Todd and Mary are very professional. Everything about the process was much easier than I expected. The trailer is comfortable, and I felt that both of my senior horses were extremely well cared for in my absence. The peace of mind is worth the cost. I highly recommend this small, family owned business. There is excellent communication and lots of empathy!

We hired Mary at Sparrow Valley Ranch to transport our horses from Las Vegas to Spearfish, SD. Our experiece was unique in that we followed in a trailer of supplies and was able to see first hand, hour by hour how well Mary transported our horses. She is very safe, concious of the road, and makes the horses her focus. Stops for fuel were short so that we kept the horses moving to their rest place for the evening. Mary lives with the horses where they stay at night in her trailer and takes total responsability for safety and security. You won't find a better transporter that takes total ownership of the horses on the road.

Sparrow Ranch is an exceptional experience in equine transportation. Mary recently hauled a 16.3 warmblood gelding, irreplaceable in our hearts, from CA to MT. Her dedication,calmness and love of horses speaks for itself. Fabio arrived in perfect condition, calm and relaxed. Thank you Mary!

I had to transport two miniature donkeys and I did an extensive amount of research to find a great hauler who would take care of these two new babies. Mary with Sparrow Valley Ranch, was absolutely amazing. The process was seamless, from the initial deposit payment, updates while she was driving, and final payment - it was a breeze. The minis were very well taken care of on this long 10 hour drive - Thank you so much! I would highly recommend Sparrow Valley Ranch for anyone looking to transport their precious cargo.

Mary hauled my horse recently for a 5-hour trip. It was a positive experience for my horse and for me! Mary is kind and clear, handled my horse well, and took care of him as if he was her own. What I especially appreciated is how she made a connection with him, instead of treating him like mere cargo. He responded really well, and came off the trailer at his new home relaxed and curious, not stressed or anxious. Thank you, Mary!
Each haul is conducted with rest stops, constant monitoring, and quality hay onboard. You'll receive status updates and arrival confirmations so you always know your horse is in good hands.
As a family business, Sparrow Valley Ranch Transport operates with a focus on safety and comfort for your horse. We have DOT certification and are on the road for a limited time each day. Your horse will be un-loaded and stalled on overnight trips. We feed and water regularly and keep our trailer clean.
We don't have a fleet of trailers, or a roster of drivers. We are a family ranch focused on hauling your horse in comfort. Other transporters who offer the lowest prices may run 7 to 10 place trailers for extended hours.
We selected a 4-horse trailer for maximum ride quality & comfort. We do not haul large numbers — we operate with great care and professionalism and are proud to offer the level of comfort your horse deserves, at a fair price.
* No service for: 95428 (Covelo, CA), 95469 (Potter Valley, CA), 95429 (Dos Rios, CA), CANADA, MEXICO. Not all areas may be directly accessible by our truck and trailer.
