Tucked into the valley above Tapovan in Rishikesh, Uttarakhand, BlaBla House is a boutique guesthouse that pet parents scouting a pet friendly stay in Rishikesh will want on their shortlist. The pet policy here was confirmed by phone on 25 August 2026 with Mr. Shavi at the property, verified by Divya Bakshi, so this isn't a guess pulled off a booking site, it's a checked fact. If you're planning to travel with dogs in Rishikesh or bring a cat along for a hill-station break, that kind of direct confirmation is worth something.
🐾 For pet parents
Dogs and cats are both welcome at BlaBla House, and pets stay free, no extra charge, with the policy covering all dog sizes according to BringFido. During the verification call, the property confirmed that guests are expected to keep pets clean and quiet while on the premises, and that anyone travelling with a pet needs to book a private room rather than a shared space. Breed restrictions and specific size limits haven't been confirmed yet, so if you're travelling with a particular breed, it's worth a quick call to the property before you book.
The Stay
BlaBla House sits up in the valley, about 400 metres above Badrinath Marg, right next to Aahar Cafe in Tapovan, one of Rishikesh's more laid-back pockets popular with long-stay travellers and yoga-circuit regulars. As a boutique guesthouse rather than a large hotel, it has the kind of smaller, quieter footprint that tends to suit pet parents looking for a pet friendly hill station Uttarakhand stay without hotel-scale crowds.
Tapovan's location, set back from the main Rishikesh bustle but still close to the Ganges and the town's cafe scene, makes this a reasonable base whether you're stopping over for a night on a longer Uttarakhand road trip with your dog or settling in for a few days. Since a private room is required for guests with pets, it's worth booking ahead rather than turning up and hoping for availability.
Pet Policy
BlaBla House allows both dogs and cats, and pets stay free, no extra charge, at this property. Dog size restrictions are not confirmed, so guests travelling with larger breeds should confirm directly with the property before booking. Breed restrictions are also not confirmed at this time. What is confirmed is that guests must keep pets clean and quiet while on the property, and that a private room booking is required for anyone travelling with a pet, rather than shared or dorm accommodation. For anything beyond this, such as specific in-room pet amenities, it's best to confirm directly with the property using the phone number listed on this page.
Why pet parents will love this place
The pet-friendly case for BlaBla House (Rishikesh)
A no-extra-charge pet policy that's actually been checked by phone, not just listed, is not something every pets allowed Rishikesh stay can claim. Combined with the requirement of a private room for pet-travelling guests, it points to a property that has thought through what it means to host dogs and cats rather than tolerating them as an afterthought.
