RJ Paddywacks Pet Outfitter

Established in 1995, RJ Paddywacks Pet Outfitter has served the Roaring Fork Valley as a locally owned, full-line pet supply store for nearly three decades. Located in Carbondale’s City Market parking lot, the shop distinguishes itself from big-box retailers by focusing on quality over quantity, stocking curated brands like Nulo, Fromm, and Ruffwear that staff use and trust. The inventory extends well beyond dogs and cats to include aquatic, reptile, avian, and small animal supplies, alongside large animal feed for local ranchers. A key draw is the self-service dog wash, an all-inclusive facility providing shampoo, towels, tools, and blow dryers for twenty dollars, with nail trims available during weekday hours. Customers can also access nutritional counseling and take advantage of online ordering with in-store pickup or local delivery options.
