About Us
Papaws LAB began with a little teddy dog who has been by my side for 11 years.
I raised her from a tiny puppy, and over the years, she became more than a pet — she became family, comfort, routine, and home. When she was 10, she went through a serious illness. The doctors brought her back from the edge, and that experience completely changed the way I understood love, memory, and time.
I realized that the bond we share with our companions is not something ordinary. It is quiet, deep, and irreplaceable. Every unique nose print, every familiar expression, and every portrait carries a story we never want to lose.
That is why I created Papaws LAB.
We design custom, heirloom-quality pet keepsakes that turn your pet's unique physical details into lasting pieces for everyday life. From delicate pure sterling silver nose-print jewelry to custom oil canvas portraits and handcrafted pet rugs, every item is crafted with meticulous care, premium materials, and deep respect for your memories.
We know that creating a personalized piece should be effortless. Whether you are using our simple, mess-free kit to capture a physical nose print or sending us your favorite everyday photo, we guide you through every step to ensure your pet's true essence is captured perfectly.
Our pets deserve to be remembered not only in digital photos, but in tangible objects we can hold, wear, see, and live with every single day.
Papaws LAB is for the pets who grew up with us, healed us, waited for us, and made our homes feel whole.
