Rose
Rose and mark were fantastic. Very professional and caring sitters. I never felt that I needed to worry about anything. They left my home in the condition as if they had never been there. I, absolutely couldn't have been more impressed and pleased.

Annie
Annie sat for our cat, Tuna, over a long weekend. She was extremely kind and self-sufficient. When we arrived home, Tuna was relaxed and happy and our apartment was as clean and tidy as we had left it. Annie would be welcome to sit for us again any time, we'd highly recommend her.

Jordan
I could not have asked for a better first experience with zeewoi! Jordan and Nataki were great at communicating from the very start, and they sent me pictures and updates every day. I didn’t have to worry for a moment that my cat Anya was feeling lonely because I could tell she warmed up right away, even though she’s usually quite shy! They also went above and beyond making sure my apartment was tidy for when I got home. So grateful and would definitely be honored for them to sit for me again any time!

Francesco
Francesco has been taking care of my furry babies and my place while I'm away for well over a year now, and I couldn't appreciate him more. He is a joy to communicate with, and the most reliable person one could hope for. Being able to count on him while I'm traveling makes a world of difference, because I know I don't need to worry about anything while I'm away. Benny and Zumba love him and are very well taken care of. I know because I come home to two very relaxed and happy kitties. I am super grateful to have found Francesco!

Everything was great even though they were here for some unfortunate circumstances (hurricane and extended power outage). Sent frequent updates and our cat seemed to like them.

Hannah
Hannah and Joseph were so kind, so communicative, and clean! Kevin seemed so happy in all the photos they sent. Not only did they wash my sheets and towels they used (without my requesting it, simply out of the kindness of their hearts), they ALSO then put my fresh sheets on the bed! 🥹❤️ Such incredible sitters. 10 stars!

Misti
Misti was wonderful! She was able to come by before I left town to meet my dog, Grace, which I really appreciated. She sent daily pics or videos and made sure that Grace got tons of snuggle time, which is a major requirement to keep my dog happy :) Cats and skateboards are evil enemies to Grace and it sounds like Misti experienced both and handled it flawlessly! Misti was a great communicator, left everything tidy for me when I got home and Grace was super mellow and relaxed, which tells me she got all the care she needed while I was gone. I highly recommend Misti - I'll definitely be asking her to sit again!

Lilly
Lilly and Thomas stayed at our house and cared for our dogs for a month. I think they took the dogs to the beach nearly every day. Seeing pictures of our dogs on the beach made our time away from them feel so much better. Our house was immaculate when we returned, and we felt so fortunate to have such kind and loving people step in for us in our absence. Anyone would be super lucky to have them in their home.

Gwynn
Gwynn was wonderful! She was super communicative, flexible to come to our house beforehand to get oriented, and attentive to details. She connected with our pup, Scout, immediately and we felt so assured that he would be well cared for with her. We hope Gwynn can come stay again another time!

Courtenay
I was thrilled to have Courtenay as our sitter. We had a few last minute changes and she was very accommodating. She is a very pleasant, well spoken person who bonded very quickly with our dog, Pepe. We were in Europe and Courtenay keep us we’ll informed via internet, pictures and all. We came home to a clean house, a happy pet and a delicious pie she left for us in the refrigerator. You would be very pleased to have her as your sitter. Lucy Hottle

Wendy
Wendy was great, she kept us updated on the dogs and all the fun she had hiking with them on the mountain. I returned home to a very tidy house. My dogs just loved her. I will definitely have Wendy sit for me again and would be very lucky to have her do a sit for you.

Julian
Julian and Susan were amazing, we came home to happy healthy creatures and a clean, tidy home and yard. They communicated with us during our vacation, both about anything unusual and just to let us know when things were going well (as they were the majority of the time). They are very adaptable and capable people, I highly recommend them for your home and pet needs.

Robert & Rebecca
Angela did a great job caring for Willie for 10 days while we were out of town. She was easy to communicate with and kept us informed about Willie, along with sending photos of him out on walks and at the beach. Angela was very accomodating when we needed to come home a day early - Thank you! The house was left in good shape and it's clear that Angela is organized and reliable and clearly loves her pet charges. I'd recommend Angela and will definitely include her as one of our top sitter choices in the future! Thanks again, Angela!
Kate
Lindsay and Bryce provided excellent care to our two cats while we were gone. They are great communicators, took amazing care of our apartment and send regular updates and photos so that we knew all was going well. We would absolutely recommend them as responsible and thoughtful pet sitters who can be entrusted with the care of your home and pets.
Chris
Great pet care. The house was clean and tidy. The sitters had great communication. Would recommend again!
Shannon
Rachel was an excellent pet sitter for my cat. She was a good communicator and also kept my place very tidy. She even left me a gift of a bar of chocolate upon her departure! Highly recommend.
Bonnie
Bard and Kim are amazing house sitters and pet care givers. I would recommend them over and over. I wish I could add numbers to the scale. They would get a 10+. Bard and Kim were super easy to work with, efficient, self-sufficient, and considerate. They took immaculate care of my home; it was definitely cleaner after they left! I would recommend them without hesitation over and over.

5 stars? Minimum, seriously, Tyler exceeded our expectations and we are DEMANDING when it comes to caring for our 4 pups! Fortunate to meet Tyler in person about a month prior, instant rapport, and she was basically born surrounded by animals. Professional high energy, and enthusiastic love for animals! We asked Tyler "Why the heck would you drive 1.5 hours from Nashville to hang in our small town?" Tyler replied "Have had animals all my life, current Nashville location cannot, I need my animal fix!" Tyler arrived the evening prior to our departure, met our 4 dogs, the eldest is special needs with bad hips, the youngest a wild child 2 year old husky, and in the 15 years of having family or friends assist with our pup sitting, this is the most positive and enthusiastic our dogs have been to anyone outside our home. It was an instant love affair. Our dogs are so spoiled with mom & dad working from home, nearly 24/7 attachment, they typically become depressed, despondent, ornery, you name it, even if we go out for 2-3 hours. The 3 instances where we did an overnight trip or the like, they acted as if we had abandoned! When we came home after 3 nights away (was going to be 5 but business cut our first vacation in 10 years short), when we walked in the 4 of them looked up as if to say "Oh your home how nice" and were content as if we had never left. That is a FIRST in 15 years. Not only did Tyler provide us with updates, photos, messages, etc. she organized (we did not require nor ask) our complete chaos of a large kitchen drawers, pots pans, you name it, it was the most organized we have been in a LONG time. Our eldest handicapped Husky, usually has accidents in the house at least once a day. The youngest 2 year old loves to chew up the carpet, toys, bedding. Under Tyler's watch, no accident, no chewing, and total happiness from a new affectionate friend! This was our VERY FIRST Trusted House/Pet sitter foray, and Tyler far exceeded or expectations, and set a standard that will be difficult for others to follow. Allowing a total stranger to watch your beloved pets and home is a serious undertaking, and Trusted House/Pet provided us with a rock star. Family and friends alike joke how we are over the top with our dogs, and Tyler did not bat an eye, and provided a seamless transition of puppy affection and well being. This review may seem over the top to some, all I can say is this is 100% true to life, and other Home/Pet owners are welcome to reach out to us for further referral. Those who are able to work with Tyler depending on her work/travel schedule would be well served to invite her without hesitation. Tyler, THANK YOU for allowing us to enjoy a few nights for the first time in a decade! Dean & Diana Smith
Kellie
Laura was amazing with communication from the very beginning. She sent updates of photos and videos without even being told or asked to do so. She was watching our cat and treated her like her own. Laura was also very responsive when we were trying to find a sitter for our dates and answered any and all questions we had about her experience with pets and house sitting. I would recommend her to anyone! :) and hope we can have her house sit again for us.
Carole
Elaine was a welcomed sitter for Cyrus and Purrelli. I returned from holiday to find a very content relaxed dog and a happy fat cat. Purrelli doesn’t eat when he is stressed so seeing a little meat on him let me know he was content and happy :) My condo was left clean and in order, all communications were smooth and there was zero issues. Thx for the great pet care Elaine.
Mona
David was an outstanding house/pet sitter for our active pup Tosha, older kitty Rascal, and 4 chickens. Rascal came home with a deep, gaping wound the day before we left for 11 days, and David was very responsible in monitoring the healing process with photos and texts to us. He exercised Tosha in the neighborhood and local parks, and obviously enjoyed her company. Our house was spotless and extremely neat when we got home, which is always welcoming after a long trip. We are very grateful for the excellent care David gave to our precious pets and home.
Wanda
What an amazing couple we had as pet sitters for our two dogs! You can truly feel their love for animals. Nancy sent pictures a couple of times letting us know that they were having fun also with our Cody and Carson! Our home was perfect when we got home. They even left a beautiful potted flower and card on our island in our kitchen. We highly recommend this couple! Jim & Wanda

Oh be Dogful dogs live their best lives in an environment of love and devotion. The ranch is a unique and special place. Thank you Leigh, Amber, Caroline, and Tamara for your kindness and dedication.
These guys are great!! They took great care of our pup while we were away, and were attentive to our dogs needs, when they noticed our puppy might want a little space from the other dogs they found a way to put him in a different area where he could relax a little! I know our dog was in good caring hands when we were gone and we'll use them every time we're in CB!!
We had a great experience at OBD. They were very accommodating, and it seems like our dog really enjoyed her time there. Thank you!
Leigh and her staff are great. Our dogs are always so happy to go to daycare and come home whooped from playing all day. We appreciate the team’s hard work keeping our babies safe and happy.
Maddie misses this daycare tremendously. She came here every Tuesday and Thursday for 2 years before we moved out of the valley. I would take the bus down to gunni for work before OBD opened but they would pick up Maddie from my home for daycare. She loved the outdoor space even when it was subzero temps! Denver is a bit warm for her. When walking Maddie in CB, I’d run into employees from OBD that would come up and pet her. All of my neighbors sent their pups here. I’m sad we don’t have facilities like this in Denver.
We used the daycare for our 2 boys while we went skiing during the week (visiting from out of town). Super chill crew, nice facility and our boys had lots of fun. Will be back when we're in the area again! Thanks guys!
Words cannot describe how much I love this place and the people who work there. Have been taking my dogs here for about 6 years and even though my fuzzy children are a serious handful they always take great care of them and make them feel loved. Thank you OBD!
The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Our dog stayed here while we were traveling on a family vacation. He did great and we felt like he was in good hands. I trust them and would definitely recommend to others.
Great place to drop your dog off for the day or overnight. They have a large outdoor playground for the dogs to play in. Our Golden Doodle is always pooped at the end of the day after playing hard all day!
We left our pup here when we were shooting an 8 hour wedding day in Crested Butte and they were amazing! They took the time to meet him and introduce him to the other dogs, and he was super tired when we picked him up. Will definitely use them again if we're back in the area!

Lisa and the staff at Mountain Tails were absolutely delightful. They helped us out so much when we forgot a dog harness on a recent camping trip. Very cool products in the shop for great prices too. Thanks for the laughs Lisa 💛 …
This place is great. They truly care about the pets in our community! Employees are super friendly and knowledgeable.
Wonderful little shop! Lisa was so helpful when I forgot my dogs harness and made sure we found one that worked! Great place and even better people!
Such a nice and helpful shop! They allowed our doggo to go into and try out the sweaters, super friendly, gave her treats and chatted about the town. Highly recommend for pup treats, leashes, collars and warm gear!
Mountain Tails has good quality products, an excellent selection and friendly, knowledgeable employees!
Amazing selection and so extremely helpful, I stopped while in town looking for a specific item for my dog and they went above and beyond to help me find what I needed! The store is also the tidiest and most organized pet supply shop I’ve ever been in.
Came here for some CBD chews or oil for my dog that has extreme anxiety and was very happy with the service I got from the staff. They were very helpful and answered all my questions, I would highly recommend stopping here if you are in a bind and need something while traveling in Crested Butte.
This is an amazing pet store and utilized by so many in Crested Butte and those who are visiting. They have so many good natural chew products for my dog for really great prices. Brandon and Evan are so helpful and will help you pick out what you need for your cat or dog. Mountain Tails always has an extremely good selection of beds, collars, apparel, toys, carriers, and things I didn't even think of (but of course needed when I saw it). As an artist, they've been really amazing to work with and I have several prints hanging in the store. They are very supportive of local artists and companies which is a wonderful quality for a small business to have. You won't leave empty-handed! Also, bring your dog in with you and they will get a treat!
Mountain Tails is a cute pet store located directly across the street from my office which is located at the main four-way. Thus it makes it simple for me to walk across the way, grab a big bag of dog food or treats and continue on with my day without interruption. The store has a really decent selection of different types of foods, and carries high-quality brands. They also have treats, toys, accessories, dog beds, etc. Their inventory is quite decent for the size of the location. They also have a rewards program that will now track your purchases, which is great if you like to lose punchcards like me. It also seems that their rewards got better, you actually receive a free bag of food after "x" number of purchases. Now, if you live here in CB or are visiting, you may think it's easier just to order off of Amazon or some other type of similar on-line retailer. I have ordered online myself and when you think of all the individual packaging waste to ship one bag to your address it seem excessive. As well, I love supporting my community and prefer to spend locally when I can. Bonus: If you are looking for a cute gift, but don't know what to get, a custom and locally baked frosted doggie treat is a sure winner.
Great store, friendly staff. Very limited cat section though. The only cat litter they sell is called The World's Best Cat Litter. They don't warn you on the bag, but please note; if your cat likes corn products, they will EAT this litter. My cat ate a bunch of it and got really sick. We have a covered litter box and I don't have a habit of watching my cat use the restroom, so I didn't know she was eating it until I found it in her sick a few hours later.
