Alright, who else has their pets on their holiday shopping list? Because same. It would be a shame not to wrap a gift or two for the four-legged family members who love who’ve been with us through it all. I’m here to lend a helping hand with a thoughtfully curated list of gift ideas for pets — the ones who drive you nuts at times and completely melt your heart the rest of the time. (Psst. This is also a guide for people that love their pets so much, they would welcome a pet-centered gift.)

Gift Ideas For Pets

Pet Shampoo | $32

I’m telling you, this is the best pet shampoo we’ve tried on Cricket! Not only is it free from harsh chemicals, it smells incredible and will leave their coat feeling silky smooth.

Art Dog Coffee Table Book | $16

Technically, this is a gift for the dog lovers out there. You know I have a burgeoning collection of coffee table books, and this would make the perfect addition. They’ll think of you every time they flip through its artful pages.

Dog Treat Puzzle | $14

Cricket is our first-ever puppy, and she’s taught us so much patience in her first year of life. We’ve also learned to get creative with her toys and treats because she can easily get bored. This interactive treat feeder will keep them occupied and stimulated! Apparently, it’s something cats enjoy as well!

Kimmel Cat Tree | $105

I don’t know a ton about cats, but I do know that this is the prettiest cat tree I’ve ever seen.

Leather Dog Collar | $59

I’m guessing if you’re here, you have good taste and can appreciate what a work of art this leather collar with brass details and customized debossed foil lettering is. Grab one in green or one of the eight other colors.

Knit Dog Sweater | $49

Okay, okay, I just can’t help myself with this festive cable-knit sweater. Pro gifting tip: always opt for personalized embroidery every time you get the chance. This fair isle is darling, but there are so many other good patterns and colors to choose from.

Dog Treat Advent Calendar | $19

Gift your dog 24 days of treats, whether they’ve been naughty or nice. You’ll be their favorite person come Christmas day (oh wait, you already are.)

Linen Picture Frame | $89

For the pet owners!—Gift them this cute little frame with a pic of their favorite furry friend.

Dipped Ceramic Dog Bowl | $39

This is such a pretty feeding dish, and you know by now I’m a sucker for a personalized touch. You can stick with the pretty navy color or opt for the white, but definitely get your pet’s name engraved.

Handmade Personalized Leather Cat Collar | $20

Cats are famously known for wandering off and exploring the path less traveled, and now you can keep track of them when they slip away with this AirTag holder collar. This is also a great opportunity to shop from a small business this year!

Custom Oil Painting | $150

Here’s another chance to shop from a small business during this holiday season. We have custom paintings of both Charly and Willow before they passed, and we treasure them dearly. This is the perfect way to gift something super special and sentimental for the pet lovers in your life.

Flapping Bird Cat Toy | $16

This chewable, washable, flapping bird cat toy is all your cat needs to stay busy for hours on end. It chirps and flaps and can also be hung from by a rope and dangled around for you and your cat’s enjoyment.

Pet Sherpa Bucket Hat | $17

I don’t know how practical a dog bucket hat is, but you at least have to get it, have a little photoshoot, and then send the pics my way because this is too stinkin’ adorable.

Vintage Stripe Dog Lounger | $120

Not all dog beds are as pretty as this one. Fret not, because the cover on this is machine washable. Get your dog the gift of comfy slumbers in this luxury, eco-friendly lounger bed.

Kit-Cat Clock | $50

This kitschy cat clock is the most nostalgic, niche gift you could get for the cat person in your life. The Kit-Cat Clock is a timeless piece of Americana, and the wagging tail and shifty eyes guaranteed to spread some cheer.

Ceramic Dog Treat Jar | $24

This cute little treat jar is too cute to pass up. I would happily keep this out on my kitchen counters at all times.

A reader recently asked me if I’m starting to fully embrace traditional style and whether we still consider our house to be a “modern Colonial” and why. It was a really great question and so timely — I had really just been thinking about my approach to this home and how my style has changed […]
