Love your local pet store? Want to learn more about a groomer in your area? A relative new website is hoping it can lead you in the right direction.
www.zootoo.com is a user-generated opinion-sharing website for pet lovers. It's a site that lets all pet lovers get unbiased information about all animals.
When someone visits the site, they can choose a service, such as a groomer or vet, based on a Zagat-like rating and the opinions of people who may have used the services. Pet lovers can also rate and review products and stores.
Of course, like any ratings site, some of the ratings may be "fluffed" by the store owner themselves. However, this is a step in the right direction in offering pet lovers a portal to express their opinions on their local retailers.
