If you’ve stopped by our shop recently, you might have noticed things looking a little... well, bigger. Okay, a lot bigger! We have some incredibly exciting news to share with our favorite pack of humans and hounds. Dog Dog Cat has officially made a big move, and we’re not just talking about moving a few bags of kibble around. We’ve expanded into Suite 10/11, giving us triple the space to serve you and your furry best friends.
But why the extra room? Is it just for more dog food? (Though, let’s be honest, you can never have enough high-quality food!) The real star of our expansion is something we know Tahoe pet parents have been dreaming of: the brand-new Doggie Self-Serve Bathhouse & Spa.
We know the Tahoe lifestyle. It involves muddy trails, sandy lake shores, and the occasional "what on earth did you just roll in?" moment. Our new space is designed to tackle all that grime while making the process fun, easy, and affordable. Welcome to the era of "Clean Dogs, Happy Life!"
Triple the Space, Triple the Fun
Moving is always a bit of a whirlwind, but we couldn't be happier with our new home in Suite 10/11. When we first started Dog Dog Cat, we wanted to create a place where pet parents felt at home. As our community grew, we realized we needed more elbow room: both for us and for the wagging tails that visit us every day.
By tripling our square footage, we’ve been able to reorganize the shop to make your shopping experience even smoother. Whether you're hunting for the perfect freshly baked dog treats or looking for a new set of dog shoes for those rocky trails, everything is now easier to find.
But the real "big move" was the installation of our state-of-the-art self-serve bathhouse. We wanted to create a dedicated zone where the mess stays with us, and the clean dog goes home with you.

The Tahoe Struggle: Dirty Dogs and Living Room Disasters
We love Lake Tahoe. Our dogs love Lake Tahoe. But let’s be real for a second: Lake Tahoe does not always love our carpets. If you’ve ever tried to wash a 70-pound Golden Retriever in a standard bathroom tub, you know the struggle.
First, there’s the "lifting." Then, there’s the "staying." Then comes the inevitable "shake," which effectively paints your bathroom walls, mirror, and ceiling with wet-dog-scented swamp water. And don't even get us started on the back pain from leaning over the edge of the tub for thirty minutes.
We’ve all been there. We love our pets more than anything: they make us laugh, comfort us when we’re down, and are our best friends: but sometimes their outdoor adventures leave a lot to be desired in the cleanliness department. That’s exactly why we built the Doggie Self-Serve Bathhouse & Spa.
Introducing the Doggie Self-Serve Bathhouse & Spa
Our new spa isn't just a tub in a corner; it's a fully equipped cleaning station designed specifically for the needs of active Tahoe dogs. We’ve taken the guesswork out of bath time.
What’s Included?
When you bring your pup into our self-serve spa, you get access to:
- Professional Grade Tubs: No more kneeling! Our tubs are at the perfect height, so you can scrub away without the backache.
- High-End Shampoos and Conditioners: We provide top-tier grooming products that are gentle on skin but tough on Tahoe mud.
- Professional Blow Dryers: These aren't your average hair dryers. They’re designed to get deep into the undercoat, ensuring your dog is dry before they hit the car seat.
- Towels and Brushes: We provide all the tools you need to get that professional finish.
The best part? You leave the mess behind! No more clogged drains at home, no more soggy towels piled up in the laundry room, and definitely no more "wet dog smell" lingering in your hallway for days.

Clean Dogs, Happy Life: Our New Mantra
"Clean Dogs, Happy Life" isn't just a catchy phrase; it's a philosophy. We believe that when your pet is clean, you’re more likely to let them snuggle on the couch, sleep at the foot of the bed, and join in on all the indoor family fun. A clean dog is a healthy dog, and a healthy dog is a happy dog!
Regular bathing helps remove allergens, dirt, and parasites that your pup might pick up on the trails. It’s also the perfect time to check for any unusual bumps or scratches they might have gotten while exploring. Plus, let’s be honest: nothing beats the feeling of a soft, freshly washed pup leaning against your leg while you enjoy your morning coffee in your favorite coffee mug.
Easy, Affordable, and Stress-Free
We know that professional grooming can be expensive and sometimes hard to schedule. While we love our professional groomers, sometimes you just need a quick "rinse and go" after a day at the beach or a hike up the mountain.
Our self-serve baths are designed to be affordable and accessible. You don't need an appointment weeks in advance. Just swing by, get the job done, and get back to your day. It’s the perfect solution for the busy pet parent who wants to keep their dog looking (and smelling) great without the "boutique" price tag.

While You’re Here...
One of the best things about the new layout in Suite 10/11 is that while your dog is drying off (or while you're waiting for a tub to open up), you can browse our expanded selection of treats and toys.
Is your cat feeling left out? Don't worry, we haven't forgotten our feline friends! Our cat food collection has also grown, ensuring your kitty gets the very best nutrition. We even have plenty of carriers and crates if you’re planning a bigger "big move" of your own.
We’re always adding new items to our shelves, and you can stay up to date by checking our latest news page regularly.
A Note on Safety and Comfort
We want every visit to Dog Dog Cat to be a positive experience. If your dog is a little nervous about bath time, our team is here to offer tips and encouragement. We’ve designed the space to be as calm and welcoming as possible. Remember, always make sure to keep potentially dangerous items away from pets: even in the bath! We’ve curated our spa products to be safe and effective, so you have one less thing to worry about.
If you have any questions about the new spa or our new location, don't hesitate to contact us or visit our location page for directions. We love hearing from our community, and we’re always happy to help you find exactly what you need for your pet.
