Frequently asked questions

We are located in Truckee, CA, and offer dog training in San Francisco, Silicon Valley, and the entire Bay Area. We also service the Lake Tahoe Area and Reno, Nevada.

During your dog’s sleep-away camp, they will stay in the comfort of our trainer’s home, not in a facility. We provide a real-life, structured environment that mimics a home setting, allowing your dog to practice their skills in everyday situations. Your dog will be treated like one of the family, receiving personalized care, attention, and plenty of enrichment. This home-based approach ensures your dog feels comfortable and secure while learning, creating the ideal environment for long-lasting training success

We do not allow visits while your dog is in our board and train program. While we understand this might be difficult at first, it plays an essential role in your dog’s progress. The time apart allows for a "reset" in your dog’s relationship with you, helping them fully focus on learning their new skills without distractions.

That said, we know how much you care about your dog, and we’re committed to keeping you connected. You'll receive weekly updates, complete with photos and videos, so you can follow along with their progress. Plus, as the program advances, we’ll begin incorporating in-person lessons. Around the halfway mark, you’ll get the chance to reunite with your dog and see their amazing progress firsthand. Rest assured, we’re dedicated to keeping you informed and engaged every step of the way!To maintain quality, consistency, and an individualized approach, we limit the number of dogs each trainer works with at any given time. This allows us to dedicate ample time and attention to each dog’s unique needs and goals.

During your consultation with our head trainer, the trainer who will work with your dog is determined based on a comprehensive assessment of your dog’s specific requirements. Rest assured that all our trainers have Skylar Bickart’s full confidence and are committed to delivering the same level of expertise and care that Skye’s the Limit Dog Training is known for. Your dog’s training experience is in capable and caring hands with our team.

We understand how important it is to stay connected with your dog while they are at sleep-away camp. That's why we provide regular communication and updates throughout the program. Each week, you will receive progress updates along with photos and videos, so you can see how your dog is doing and follow their journey. In addition, if any significant milestones or challenges arise, we’ll keep you informed promptly. Around the halfway point, you’ll also begin in-person lessons to stay actively involved in your dog’s progress. We are committed to keeping you fully informed and engaged throughout the entire experience!

For our board and train programs, we’ve designed a straightforward payment structure to accommodate your needs. To secure your spot, we require a 30% deposit upfront. The remaining balance is divided into two equal payments. The first installment is due on the board and train start date, offering flexibility as your dog begins their training journey. The final payment is due halfway through the program, ensuring a seamless and stress-free conclusion to the program.

Absolutely! We understand that financing can make our programs more accessible, and we want to support as many people as possible. We offer third-party financing option via Paypal Credit, allowing you to spread the cost of your dog’s training over a manageable timeline.
