Do you know a mom who would do anything for their fluffy fur baby? Or a devoted pet sitter who deserves extra appreciation? Look no further than our dog Mother’s day gift and card ideas below.

Dog Mother’s Day gifts to say “Happy Dog Mother’s Day”

A Mother's Day card from the dog

What says “I love you” better than a dog mom Mother’s Day card? Personalize the card with your fur baby’s breed, add a pawsome message, and don’t forget to sign it with puppy paw prints. Bonus points if you can get them to slobber all over the envelope! 

Dog face socks

Your pup might love following their favorite human around all day, but what about when they have to be left at home? Personalize a pair of socks featuring the pup’s face, so she’s never too far from her furry beloved!

Donate to an animal shelter

The furry friends in your life are probably spoilt rotten, so why not give a less fortunate pup a helping paw? Say “Happy Dog Mother’s Day” by donating to an animal shelter like the ASPCA and make a life-changing difference to furry friends suffering from abuse and neglect.

Organic candles

Rainy walks around the dog park are a fact of dog mom life, but that pesky wet dog smell is nearly impossible to get rid of. Mask their pup's “fragrance” with the much more palatable scent of an indulgent soy wax candle. If you know a fur mom whose pup is the light of their life, this is the perfect gift for them.

A custom pet portrait 

Find a local artist online, or track down someone who’s great with a paintbrush, and get a personalized pet portrait for the dog mom in your life.

Dog-opoly board game

Forget splurging on property in Boardwalk, we’d much rather spend on dog treats, toys, and trips to the groomers. Monopoly Dogs edition is the better (dog-themed) version of the old classic, so your devoted dog mom can be the proud owner of not one, not two, but as many noble dog breeds as she wants. 

Personalized dog mom travel mug

For dog moms who love their coffee while out on a dog walk, find a coffee mug online that can be personalized to match the breed and color of their fur baby. Not only is this a great gift for dog moms, but it would also be the ideal present for your favorite fairy dog mother (aka a loving pet sitter).

Dog cam

24/7 surveillance of fur babies - what more could a dog mom wish for? Find a dog camera that follows the pup’s movements, and even dispenses treats.

Personalized pet cushion

Why not spruce up the dog mom’s home with a made-to-order cushion, adorned with their pup’s face, or photos of their favorite moments together?

Bath bombs

Mother’s Day is all about pampering, so let the dog mom in your life enjoy a bit of TLC with a bath bomb - there are plenty of dog-themed pamper kits online to choose from.

Dog-themed kitchen ornaments

These chic salt and pepper shakers deserve to be in any dog lover’s home, especially if there’s a Jack Russel living there. They're the pawfect tabletop ornament, and they’ll come in handy at human mealtimes, too. 

Personalized door mat

Get the muddy pup in your life to help out with the chores by wiping muddy paws on a personalized mat, a practical present that will make every dog mom’s life a little bit easier.

DIY Rescue Box 

If you know a dog mom who’s recently adopted, why not spoil her new furry friend with a homemade rescue box? Find a sturdy shoebox or a small storage bin, wrap it in fun paper, and fill it with essentials. Think treats, a durable chew toy, and maybe a fleece blanket to help her new rescue feel right at home. It’s a thoughtful, budget-friendly way to say "Welcome home!"

Dog DNA test

Why not help the dog mom in your life find out where their pup really came from, with a doggy DNA test? Discover the breeds that make up their DNA, find out more about their health and genetic conditions, and even track down their relatives with an easy at-home testing kit.

Dog mom apparel
