Sometimes the love of your life has a love of their life…. Who maybe has more hair, slobber, and/or claws than you… and sometimes the best valentine gifts you can give that person are inspired by the pet they love so dearly.

Sometimes the best medicine is unconditional love from your pet.
What is the True Meaning of Valentine’s Day?
Valentine’s Day is one of my favourite holidays. I get to spoil my family and friends and shower them with love and joy. Whether that be through gift giving, making them something delicious or even just spending intentional time with them, I love Love and I love spreading Love.
The history of Valentine’s Day is marked by many ancient stories, traditions and myths that we can trace back all the way to the early days of Rome (you can read more here). Whatever story you choose to believe, the main theme that’s been carried through the centuries is that we all need a day to celebrate love.
As I mentioned, I’m a big fan of celebrating love of any kind everyday of the year. Nevertheless, Valentine’s Day is one of my favourite days because it truly reminds us to pause and tell those in our lives who mean something to us, how much we love them.
I grew up seeing Valentine’s Day not as a romantic holiday, but a day to celebrate love and caring for others. It’s a day to show others you care for them, and to take a moment in our stark cold winter months to pause and reflect on the love I have in my own life.
Now don’t get all bothered and wrapped up in material gifting if that’s not your jam… There are so many other ways to show someone you care and here are just a few other valentine gift ideas that require no money, just your time:
– Cook them their favourite meal
– Go for a walk in their favourite place
– Make them something
– Spending intentional, quality time with them
Most of the time just showing someone you care simply requires a little time well spent with that person. Be intentional, listen and be there for them. You see there really are endless ways to show love.
Where to Start?
How to Pick Out a Valentine Gift
If you do want to spend a little money and really treat your special someone, finding the perfect valentine gift can be a challenge and one that takes all the fun out of giving.
Valentine’s Day is sometimes even more daunting because you really want to find a special valentine gift that conveys how much another means to you.
When shopping for another person, first, think about what the other person loves… Here are some questions you can try asking yourself:
Do they love eating? Cooking? Reading? Knitting?
Does the person have any hobbies? Past-times? Sports?
Do they love pets? People? Neither?
For me, most people in my life love animals, and I always strike gold when I give either homemade or custom gifts, especially those that remind them of their furry friend.
If you’re like me, and you have people in your life who also love their pets as much as I do, then finding a unique and thoughtful gift can be extra special.
These days there are so many creative people sharing their love for pet-inspired fashion, accessories and quirky things, picking just one a-dog-able valentine gift might just be the hardest part.
