The Story Behind Ginger Daisy Pets: A Brand from the Heart
🐾 The Story Behind Ginger Daisy Pets: A Brand from the Heart
By Amanda, Founder of Ginger Daisy Pets
Hi, I’m Amanda — the creator of Ginger Daisy Pets.
This brand is my love letter to the animals who shape our lives. The ones who make us laugh, hold space for our hardest days, and love us with a kind of loyalty that’s impossible to explain. If you’ve ever felt like your pet just gets you — you’re in the right place.
Ginger Daisy Pets is named after two of the most unforgettable companions I’ve ever known: Daisy, my calm but cranky cat who passed during COVID in 2019 at 19 years old… and Ginger, my loving, hilarious, attention-seeking, people-magnet of a dog who’s now 10 — and absolutely, without question, my soul pet.
Daisy — My Sweet, Selective Girl
Daisy was my calm, sweet cat who passed during COVID at 19 years old.
She had that classic cat energy — deeply loyal once she chose you, full of quiet wisdom, and selectively affectionate (as all queens are).
To others she may have seemed cranky or reserved, but to me she was pure love.
She followed me through every season of life — from college apartments to cross-country moves. Always nearby. Always grounding.
Her presence was subtle but powerful.
She left a paw print on my soul, and her spirit lives in everything I create.
Ginger — My Soul Pet
Then there’s Ginger.
My dog. My shadow. My heart.
She’s expressive, hilarious, dramatic, and truly unforgettable — a total people-magnet with a flair for attention (and honestly, she earns it).
At 10 years old, she’s still full of life, love, and sass — and she’s the reason I create the joyful, playful side of this brand.
Ginger is my daily reminder to stay present, soft-hearted, and full of laughter.
Our connection is soul-deep, and she inspires me to help others celebrate their pets now, while they’re still here to feel the love.
What We Create at Ginger Daisy Pets
This isn’t just a shop.
It’s a celebration of the sacred bond between humans and their animals.
Here, you’ll find:
- Custom engraved pet tags – packed with personality and charm
- Memorial ornaments & remembrance keepsakes – to honor those we’ve lost
- Thoughtful, soulful gifts – for dog moms, grieving pet parents, and animal lovers
- Laser-cut wall art – crafted in the likeness of your pet, based on breed or a photo you share
Each piece is handmade in my San Diego studio — designed, engraved, and packaged with heart and intention. No mass production. Just meaningful creations that reflect the love we carry for our pets.
Why I Do This
I started Ginger Daisy Pets from a place of love, grief, and the desire to make meaning.
Because I know what it feels like to be changed by a pet.
And I know what it feels like to lose one — and ache for a way to hold on to their memory.
This brand is how I honor both:
- The quiet, soul-shaping grief of losing Daisy
- The everyday, heart-bursting joy of life with Ginger
Our pets deserve to be celebrated — boldly, beautifully, and often.
From My Heart to Yours
If your pet has ever been your safe place…
If they’ve made you laugh through tears or reminded you how to love more fully…
I made this for you.
Thank you for letting Daisy and Ginger live on through this work.
And thank you for being part of a community that believes pets aren’t just pets — they’re everything.
With love,
Amanda
