A clean coat and a wagging tail often go paw in paw. From deshedding treatments to paw balm applications, local groomers cater to the aesthetic and health needs of dogs and cats alike. In the Best of North Lake Tahoe and Truckee, community members elevate those pet grooming businesses that keep their companions looking their best and feeling even better.
Spoiled Petz operates with one guiding principle: pets deserve to be treated like royalty. Founded by Amy Oliver in 2003, this grooming service has grown into a trusted name in Truckee through a commitment to personalized, in-home care. The mobile nature of the business removes the stress of car rides and loud grooming salons, offering dogs and cats a familiar environment while receiving trims, nail care or full grooming sessions. With more than two decades of experience, Amy’s approach emphasizes patience, consistency and a deep understanding of animal behavior.
Happy Tails Truckee Tahoe extends its focus beyond pet sitting and into grooming, offering a holistic menu of services designed around comfort and trust. Their grooming offerings are an extension of their larger philosophy: Pets do best when treated as part of the family. This mindset shapes how they approach each session — working gently with each animal’s personality and ensuring that grooming is a positive experience, not a chore. They aim for stress-free service, whether it’s a simple brush-out or a more involved spa-style session.
Truckee-Tahoe Pet Lodge brings full-service grooming to the same high standards as their boarding and daycare programs. Their grooming spa features all the essentials: breed-specific cuts, gentle bathing, nail trims and even teeth brushing. But what sets them apart is the integration of grooming into a broader lifestyle experience. Pets who are already comfortable staying at the Lodge benefit from seamless transitions into grooming appointments, which are carried out by trained staff who understand the nuances of animal handling and comfort.
