{"page":{"id":479,"title":"About Us","handle":"about-us","url":"https://pawsandpine.shop/about-us/","body_html":"<p class=\"policy-updated\">Last updated: <time datetime=\"2026-11-02\">November 2, 2026</time></p>\n<h2>Your pet, at the cabin</h2>\n<p>Paws And Pine is an online store for people whose favourite view is a dog stretched across the couch or a cat curled in the cabin chair. We make cozy things for pet people who like the outdoors: throw blankets printed with your own pet&#8217;s photo, breed portrait throws, campfire and pine-forest designs, pullover hoodies and sweatshirts for pet lovers, and a small shelf of gear for the pet itself, from beds and bandanas to crate mats. Around that we keep a few cabin gifts, such as mugs, pillow covers and ornaments, that suit a porch, a bookshelf or a holiday tree.</p>\n<p>This page is not a story about us. It is a plain explanation of what we sell, how a custom order works from the moment you type your pet&#8217;s name, how long things take, and what you can expect if something needs to be sent back. If you read it before ordering, you should know exactly what you are getting and when.</p>\n<section class=\"policy-summary\">\n<h3>Before the trail: at a glance</h3>\n<ul>\n<li>We sell throw blankets, hoodies, sweatshirts, tees, pet gear and cabin gifts, with a set of personalised blankets and hoodies.</li>\n<li>Orders ship from the USA to the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand only.</li>\n<li>Shipping is free on every order, with no minimum.</li>\n<li>Orders are prepared in 1&ndash;3 business days, then take 7&ndash;14 business days in transit.</li>\n<li>You can return any product, personalised ones included, within 60 days for any reason, and we provide a free return label.</li>\n<li>Refunds go back to your original payment method within 7 days of us receiving the return.</li>\n<li>Support is by email only at support@pawsandpine.shop, with a reply within 24 hours on business days.</li>\n</ul>\n</section>\n<div class=\"tk-slot\" data-slot=\"about-inline\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1200/800;--tk-ar-m:780/520\"><img width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https://pawsandpine.shop/wp-content/uploads/2026/11/slot-about-inline-d595df3f.webp\" class=\"tk-slot__img\" alt=\"A dog and a cat resting together on a cabin-style throw blanket near a wood stove\" loading=\"lazy\" /></div>\n<h2>What we make</h2>\n<p>Everything in the shop falls into a handful of groups. Each one has its own collection page, so you can browse a single kind of product instead of scrolling through the whole range.</p>\n<h3>Custom pet photo blankets</h3>\n<p>The heart of the store. You send a photo of your dog or cat, add the pet&#8217;s name, and we print it onto a throw blanket. These are the blankets people order for a new puppy, a senior dog&#8217;s birthday, or a cat who has passed and is still very much part of the family. Browse them in <a href=\"/collections/custom-pet-photo-blankets/\">Custom Pet Photo Blankets</a>.</p>\n<h3>Breed portrait blankets</h3>\n<p>Not everyone has the perfect photo. Our breed portrait throws show an illustrated dog or cat of a chosen breed, so you can get a blanket that looks like your golden retriever or your tabby without sending a picture at all. See <a href=\"/collections/breed-portrait-blankets/\">Breed Portrait Blankets</a>.</p>\n<h3>Cabin and campfire throws</h3>\n<p>Pine ridges, trail paws, campfire scenes and lodge-style patterns for the couch, the reading chair or the back seat of the car on the way to a weekend away. They are in <a href=\"/collections/cabin-campfire-throws/\">Cabin &amp; Campfire Throws</a>.</p>\n<h3>Hoodies, sweatshirts and tees</h3>\n<p>Unisex pullover hoodies, crewneck sweatshirts, long-sleeve tees and short-sleeve tees with pet and outdoor designs, two of the hoodies with room for your own pet&#8217;s name or photo. Start with <a href=\"/collections/pet-lover-hoodies/\">Pet Lover Hoodies</a> or <a href=\"/collections/sweatshirts-tees/\">Sweatshirts &amp; Tees</a>.</p>\n<h3>For the pet, and for the cabin</h3>\n<p>Pet beds, tie-on bandanas and crate and car seat mats live in <a href=\"/collections/for-the-pet/\">For the Pet</a>. Mugs, pillow covers and ornaments live in <a href=\"/collections/cabin-gifts/\">Cabin Gifts</a>. These are the small things that make a good add-on to a blanket or a stand-alone gift for someone who already has a houseful of throws.</p>\n<table>\n<caption>The range and the options you choose on each product</caption>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"col\">Product</th>\n<th scope=\"col\">Options you pick</th>\n<th scope=\"col\">Good to know</th>\n</tr>\n</thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Throw blankets</td>\n<td>Fleece or Sherpa; 30 x 40 in, 50 x 60 in or 60 x 80 in</td>\n<td>The <a href=\"/size-guide/\">Size Guide</a> shows where each size fits, from a crate to a queen bed.</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Pullover hoodies</td>\n<td>Unisex sizes S to 3XL</td>\n<td>Two hoodies are personalised with your pet.</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Crewneck sweatshirts</td>\n<td>Unisex sizes S to 3XL</td>\n<td>Many people size up for layering over a flannel.</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Long-sleeve tees</td>\n<td>Sizes S to 3XL</td>\n<td>A lighter layer for shoulder seasons.</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Short-sleeve tees</td>\n<td>Sizes S to 2XL</td>\n<td>Note the size range stops at 2XL.</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Pet beds</td>\n<td>Small, Medium, Large</td>\n<td>Choose by how your pet sleeps: curled up, or stretched out flat.</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Tie-on bandanas</td>\n<td>S, M, L by neck</td>\n<td>Measure the neck where a collar sits.</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Crate and car seat mats</td>\n<td>Small (24 in crate), Medium (30 in), Large (36 in), XL (42 in)</td>\n<td>Named for the crate they are meant for.</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Pillow covers</td>\n<td>16 x 16 in or 18 x 18 in</td>\n<td>Cover only; pick the size of the insert you own.</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Mugs</td>\n<td>11 oz or 15 oz</td>\n<td>The 15 oz holds a long morning on the porch.</td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Ornaments</td>\n<td>One size</td>\n<td>No sizing decision needed.</td>\n</tr>\n</tbody>\n</table>\n<h2>How a custom order comes together</h2>\n<p>Personalisation happens right on the product page. There is no separate form to fill in later, no upload button and no extra charge for adding your pet. Here is the path a custom photo blanket takes, using a golden retriever called Juniper as the example.</p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Pick the blanket and size.</strong> Choose Fleece or Sherpa and one of the three sizes. For a three-seat sofa, most people land on 50 x 60 in.</li>\n<li><strong>Type the name.</strong> Enter &#8220;Juniper&#8221; in the pet name field. Names can be up to 14 characters, and a live preview shows the text on the product image as you type, so you can see the spelling before anything is printed.</li>\n<li><strong>Add the photo link.</strong> Paste a share link to the photo, for example from Google Photos, iCloud or Dropbox. The link must open for anyone who has it; a link that only works while you are signed in will not open for us.</li>\n<li><strong>Add the optional extra.</strong> Some products offer a second line of text or a choice of pose. Leave it empty if you do not need it.</li>\n<li><strong>Check, then check again.</strong> We do not send a proof or mockup before production. We print exactly what you send, so the name in the field and the photo behind the link are what ends up on the blanket.</li>\n<li><strong>Place the order.</strong> If you spot a mistake afterwards, email us within 24 hours of placing the order and we can change it. After that, production may already be under way.</li>\n</ol>\n<p>If the photo link you sent does not open for us, we will email you about it rather than guess at another picture.</p>\n<h2>Choosing a photo that prints well</h2>\n<p>A blanket is far bigger than a screen, so the photo matters more than anything else you choose. A few habits make a real difference:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Use the original photo from your camera roll, not a screenshot or a picture that has been sent through a messaging app, which usually shrinks it.</li>\n<li>Pick a shot in daylight where your pet&#8217;s eyes are clear and the face fills a good part of the frame.</li>\n<li>Avoid heavy filters. What looks moody on a small screen can print darker than you expect on a throw.</li>\n<li>For a Google Photos link, open the photo, choose share, create a link and make sure it is set so anyone with the link can view it. Test it in a private browser window before you paste it.</li>\n<li>Two pets, one blanket? Send a single photo that already shows both of them together, such as Juniper and Pepper the tuxedo cat sharing a dog bed, rather than two separate pictures.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Customer photos are deleted 30 days after delivery. We keep them only long enough to make your order and handle any question that comes up straight after it arrives.</p>\n<h2>Planning around a date</h2>\n<p>Many of our orders are for a birthday, a holiday or a memorial, so timing deserves its own section. Every order takes 1&ndash;3 business days to prepare and then 7&ndash;14 business days in transit to the United States, Canada, Australia or New Zealand. That makes 8 to 17 business days from order to door, not counting weekends or public holidays.</p>\n<p>Say you order on a Monday for a birthday exactly three weeks away. Three weeks holds 15 business days. Most orders will arrive in time, but the slow end of the range, 17 business days, would run past the party. If the date cannot move, order earlier. We cannot promise a delivery date, and we would rather tell you that now than disappoint you later.</p>\n<p>Sending a gift straight to a friend in Canada, Australia or New Zealand works the same way: enter their address as the shipping address at checkout, and the same timeline applies. Duties and import taxes depend on the destination country; contact us before ordering if you have a question. Full details are on <a href=\"/shipping-delivery/\">Shipping &amp; Delivery</a>.</p>\n<p>For memorial blankets, take the time you need. There is no rush on our side, and if choosing the photo is hard, you are welcome to email us and talk it through before you order.</p>\n<h2>What we promise once you have ordered</h2>\n<p>These are the commitments that apply to every order, written the same way here as on our policy pages.</p>\n<table>\n<caption>Our commitments on every Paws And Pine order</caption>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"col\">Topic</th>\n<th scope=\"col\">What you get</th>\n<th scope=\"col\">Where to read more</th>\n</tr>\n</thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Shipping cost</td>\n<td>Free on every order, no minimum</td>\n<td><a href=\"/shipping-delivery/\">Shipping &amp; Delivery</a></td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Changes and cancellations</td>\n<td>Within 24 hours of placing the order, by email</td>\n<td><a href=\"/cancel-change-order/\">Cancel or Change an Order</a></td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Returns</td>\n<td>60 days, any reason, every product including personalised items</td>\n<td><a href=\"/returns-exchanges-policy/\">Returns &amp; Exchanges</a></td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Return postage</td>\n<td>We provide a free return label, even if you simply changed your mind</td>\n<td><a href=\"/returns-exchanges-policy/\">Returns &amp; Exchanges</a></td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Refunds</td>\n<td>To your original payment method within 7 days of receiving the return</td>\n<td><a href=\"/refund-policy/\">Refund Policy</a></td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Store credit</td>\n<td>Never expires</td>\n<td><a href=\"/refund-policy/\">Refund Policy</a></td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Email replies</td>\n<td>Within 24 hours on business days</td>\n<td><a href=\"/contact-us/\">Contact Us</a></td>\n</tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Your photos</td>\n<td>Deleted 30 days after delivery</td>\n<td><a href=\"/privacy-policy/\">Privacy Policy</a></td>\n</tr>\n</tbody>\n</table>\n<p>A 60-day return window that includes personalised blankets is unusual, and we offer it on purpose. If Pepper&#8217;s portrait arrives and it is simply not the blanket you pictured, you can send it back. The same goes for a hoodie that turns out too snug: start a return or an exchange inside 60 days and use the free label.</p>\n<h2>How ordering and checking up on an order work</h2>\n<p>You can browse the whole range on the <a href=\"/shop/\">Shop</a> page or go straight to a collection. At checkout, the payment options available are shown on the checkout page itself; the <a href=\"/payment-methods/\">Payment Methods</a> page explains how payment works.</p>\n<p>After you order, the <a href=\"/order-tracking/\">Order Tracking</a> page lets you look up the status of your order with your order number and billing email. If you want to know where your parcel is beyond that status, email us and we will tell you where your order is. Customers with an account can also see past orders under <a href=\"/my-account/\">My Account</a>.</p>\n<p>Care instructions vary by item, so follow the care label that comes with the item. If you have a question about a product before buying, our <a href=\"/faqs/\">FAQs</a> answer the common ones, and the <a href=\"/help-center/\">Help Center</a> points you to the right policy for anything else.</p>\n<h2>Where to find us</h2>\n<p>We are an online-only store and we handle all support by email. Write to <a href=\"mailto:support@pawsandpine.shop\">support@pawsandpine.shop</a> and you will hear back within 24 hours on business days. For a specific request, such as a name change, a return or a damaged item, the <a href=\"/submit-ticket/\">Submit a Ticket</a> page has ready-made email subjects so your message lands in the right place first time.</p>\n<p>Business identity:</p>\n<p>Paws And Pine, 760 N 7th St Apt 5304, San Jose, CA 95112, US</p>\n<p>Please use email rather than post for anything about an order. Returns are sent using the free label we provide, which carries its own return address, so there is no need to mail anything to the address above.</p>\n<p>If you are buying for someone else and are unsure of a size, a 50 x 60 in throw or a mug is an easy choice that does not depend on anyone&#8217;s measurements, and the 60-day return window still applies if it turns out to be the wrong pick.</p>\n<p>Thanks for considering us for your pet&#8217;s blanket, hoodie or bed. We hope whatever you choose ends up on the couch, in the car or on the cabin chair, with a happy animal on top of it.</p>\n","visible_characters":10989,"meta_description":"Paws And Pine makes custom pet photo blankets, cabin throws, hoodies and pet gear.
