About Us

An adorable gray mini poodle mix sticks out his tongue while hanging out next to a lush ponytail palm plant.

 

This shop was inspired by my senior dog, Watson, and my love for houseplants. I realized that I hadn't come across a business specifically focused on pet-safe plants. I wanted to make it easy for pet parents to shop for plants without worrying about whether they're toxic or accidentally falling in love with a plant outside of the pet-friendly section. So every plant sold on Plants for Pet Parents is classified by the ASPCA and/or scientific sources as non-toxic for dogs and cats. We make it easy to safely beautify your home!

Curated like a local gift shop, the site also features a unique range of pots and planters to display your new pet-safe plants, in addition to plant-themed gifts. These products support other small businesses and artisan communities. I hope you'll have fun mixing and matching our offerings and sharing them with friends and family!

I'm thrilled to be combining several of my passions with this shop. I also see it as a learning opportunity, so please don't hesistate to reach out if you have any suggestions or questions. 

Thank you for supporting an AAPI woman-owned small business!
