G&E has come a long way from 20 odd years ago, when I first remember going there. I remember it…read morebeing very dark and absolutely filled to the rafters with stock. Kind of a scary place! It is much better organized and professional-looking now, but it still has everything you could need for most common pets, at a good price. It still lacks signage and one can end up wandering around lost looking for things. Items specific to dogs, for example, are not all in one area but rather in different parts of the store according to the function of the product. The new staff are more helpful in my experience and I find the store has more staff available to deal with higher volumes of customers. I can't speak to their product expertise. They were great the one time we had to exchange something, no problem. They do need another till, the check-out queue is way too long, especially if you're carrying awkward or heavy items. It also impedes customer traffic through the store as the aisles get blocked. I'm glad to have rediscovered the old in a newer, better form, and am happy to support a local business.

What a great store this is! It is deceiving from the outside how big it actually is. If you have…read moreany type of pet/animal, then make sure you stop and check out the wide selection of what they carry. There is also a pharmacist on site that can help any medical supplies that you need as well. If you're looking for dog or cat toys all the way to horse feed, you'll find what you need here, with reasonable prices as well. It is basically your one stop shop for all things animal. It's nice to see such a huge selection under one roof and not having to go to another store for something. The staff is also super friendly and knowledgeable as well. There is a tonne of free parking out front, but just a note, you can only access it directly if you are driving westbound on the sherwood park fwy. If you are trying to access it driving east, you'll have to go to the set of lights and come back as there is a meridian that you can't cross.

I was in the store to pick up a couple things for my cats and noticed that their favourite food was…read moreon sale, buy one get one free. Great! Load up a bunch, head to the till and it doesn't ring up on sale. Cashier calls a floor manager to check the shelf, who then checks with the store manager and apparently this was a Black Friday promo that had expired. Even with their mistake of the signage being left up they wouldn't honour the discount out of goodwill. Not even a few pieces. According to the floor manager they don't take part in the Code of Conduct, whatever that means. However if the company can afford to put it on sale for a price, they can afford to honour the sale when the employees haven't removed the signage a few days after the expiration. Incredibly disappointed with the service and likely won't be back.

Staff here for the Reptiles and Fish section are great. I want to say though that if you're looking…read morefor rats they are almost $20 more expensive here than they are at Mr. Pets in St. AB. They also don't come individually wrapped - they wrap them in paper towel and put them in a bag for you. This means they might get freezer burn or stuck together if you don't use them fast enough. So my suggestion is to only buy like 4 at a time instead of stocking up. I honestly think I will keep coming here for worms, but I'll stick to buying my rats elsewhere just for the price alone. You gotta come on Tues/Thurs to get the new worms! If you come on a Monday the selection isn't good and you might be buying 50 but then find that half are dead. So definitely try and come in for the fresh shipment. Sometimes I bring my babygirl Smaug (Bearded Dragon) here and the staff is so nice to here. They love seeing her and she likes to be out and about socializing with all the humans. I like that you can bring your animals here - even the reptiles. I come here just for the staff alone, they're always friendly and helpful. I feel like I get good service here. I also bought my ginger cat, Churchill, here! We saw him in the window a year ago and had to take him home with us! I can't believe that was almost two years ago now! Time flies!

They make themselves attractive with a great variety of product and pleasant attention to customers. We hunted for litter, food, and other products for several pets.

Keeping a brick-and-mortar business is increasingly challenging month by month, and I hope Tifurny's can strike the right balance to succeed.

It's a pet boutique that specializes in cool, quirky, and downright fashionable clothing, accessories, toys, foods and much more for your (mostly likely super tiny) dog. If your (miniature) dog needs a bowtie (cute), or a santa suit (super cute), or something a little more practical, like a nicely made collar, this is your store. Check out the selection of dog necklaces! They look like fancy pants beaded or pearl necklaces but they're tough enough to handle all the dog collar duties and all the mischief your dog can put them through. Also a great place for dog bowls and beds that will look good in your home as well as be great for your dog. I picked up a 3 foot deer chew and a bull chew for my pup. She's lucky all the santa suits were for micro dogs.

We have always found a spot right in front of the store though so the parking is spread out well for all the business tenants. The store is clean and bright and the staff have always been excellent! Highly recommend this location.

What I appreciate them most about this place is the quality and price of their merchandise. I noticed the price of their cat trees have gone up, but they are still far superior to Pet Smart. Pet smart 'stack' their levels, where as the ones you buy here are 'staggered'. They sell buckle and better breakaway collars for less, with no stupid bells on them.

I've got to admit I was a tad bit jelly wishing kitties had adorable baked treats but I understand the diets are entirely different. The layout of the store was easy to navigate with kitties in the back - saw what? Nobody puts kitty in a corner - just kidding! I highly recommend the CatIt line of toys she ball tracks - they build together and are always a winner with my kitty klan! They had a great selection of Oilers jerseys and bandanas for fury friends and collars and tags galore! There's a clearance section in the back left corner of the store just past the public washrooms. Be sure to sign up for their rewards program - first Tuesday of the month is 10% off regularly priced items. As part of their great customer service quest, they give you a second receipt to drop in a box on the wall on your way out ranking the service you received on that visit!

I've rescued a few reptiles in my life and Smaug has definitely been the most difficult but also the most rewarding. I also find it harder to find an exotics vet than it was in Calgary - so I'm glad that we found one.
