Top 10 Dog Mom Gifts

When looking for the perfect gift for a dog mom, the search can be tedious with all the options available. From items in retail stores to the many customizable options online, it can become difficult to pick out the perfect gift. Whether you’re shopping for yourself or looking for a fellow dog mom, check out the list below of dog mom gifts to find a thoughtful gift that any dog lover will adore!


1. Personalized Dog Mom Apparel or Accessories


This might include customized T-shirts, hoodies, hats, or tote bags that can be breed-specific and include cute dog mom slogans or their pup’s name. Look at shops on Etsy or other online shops to find the perfect customizable gift. She will be thrilled to show off her new apparel or carry a special tote bag, proudly showing off her love for her furry friend.

2. Custom Pet Portraits


A hand-drawn or digital portrait of their furry friend is a heartwarming keepsake that any dog mom will cherish. Whether you know an artist or want to order from online shops such as Etsy, there is no shortage of places to buy custom pet portraits. You might even find a local artist at a craft show offering custom portraits. All you need is a clear photo of the pet to be drawn and you can let the artist handle the rest! This will surely become one of her favorite gifts of all time!

3. Dog-Themed Jewelry


Consider necklaces, bracelets, or rings featuring paw prints, bones, or their pet’s initials for a sentimental gift. A locket necklace with the dog’s picture inside would be a special gift to receive that could be worn for years to come. This could be especially sentimental for a soul dog who has passed away to stay close to her heart forever. Simply purchase a locket necklace and glue in a personalized photo or shop around online for a seller who offers this. Either way, she will surely cherish this gift for many years to come!

4. Subscription Boxes


Gift a subscription box like BarkBox (see our in depth review of this!) filled with toys and treats for her pup to enjoy. This would give her a chance to try out a subscription she might not otherwise want to splurge on. She could then continue the subscription later on if her dog really enjoyed it or it could become a recurrent gift for a birthday or holiday that she gets excited about every year. What better way to show how much you care than to spoil her pup with lavish toys and treats!

5. Stylish Dog Accessories


High-quality collars, leashes, or bandanas in trendy patterns are both functional and fashionable for the fashionista dog mom. Make sure you know the appropriate size for her dog so it will fit just right. There are many designer dog accessory brands including very high end brands like Gucci and Louis Vuitton to more affordable designer brands like Kate Spade and Harry Barker. I also came across a site called Chewy Vuitton, which offers a variety of dog accessories in patterns made to mimic high end brands. This would be a fun way to get designer-looking accessories without the huge price tag. It would also be sure to bring a laugh when she opens it.

6. Pet Cameras


A pet camera allows dog moms to keep an eye on their furry friends while they’re away, with some models even offering treat-dispensing features such as the Furbo brand. Some models also let you speak to the dog throughout the day as well. These cameras may be able to be integrated into smart home systems such as Google Home, so look out for models with integration built in if that is something she might be looking for. Cameras are a great way to give a dog mom peace of mind while away from her furry friend.

8. Dog Mom Coffee Mug


For the caffeine-addicted dog mom, add some fun to her morning routine with a custom dog mug made from sites like Shutterfly. If you don’t want to do customization, consider looking for dog themed mugs from stores like Marshalls, Ross, or TJ Maxx, where they usually have a variety of mugs available for a very reasonable price. She will be sure to smile every morning she drinks her cup of joe out of this special mug.

7. Cozy Blankets


A soft, cozy blanket is perfect for snuggling with their pup during movie nights or chilly days. High quality blankets are readily available at most retailers and online as well. For an extra-special gift, consider a custom blanket with her dog’s picture on it from Etsy or Shutterfly. This will be sure to impress any dog mom for years to come!

9. Dog-Themed Candles


For dog moms that are obsessed with a fresh smelling home, considering buying a dog-themed candle to help create a comforting atmosphere. From candles shaped like paw prints or dog bones to those that feature dog art on the label, these would be a perfect gift to help her wind down after a long day. Be sure to look for non-toxic candles, as some essential oils can be dangerous to dogs.

10. Dog Training or Doggy Day Care


Gift a voucher for obedience classes or doggy day care for a thoughtful gift to provide her pup with valuable learning experiences and a fun, safe place to socialize. This would be a perfect gift for a new dog mom or a dog mom to-be. She will appreciate that you have her dog’s best interest in mind. Research the best local facilities to purchase a gift card or voucher.


No matter what kind of dog mom you’re shopping for, the possibilities are endless for the perfect dog mom gifts. Whether you chose something practical like stylish accessories, something fun like a subscription box, or something sentimental like custom pet portraits, any of these thoughtful gifts will surely bring a smile to any dog lover’s face (and possibly some happy tears!). After all, every dog mom deserves to be spoiled as much as she spoils her furry best friend. So go ahead and treat yourself or the dog mom in your life to something special—because their love for their dog is truly priceless!
