As pet lovers ourselves, we set out to create a line of candles that everyone—both humans and their furry companions—can safely enjoy.

Our Commitment to Giving Back
Our Commitment to Giving BackWe don't just create candles; we create a positive impact. Pets are family, and we’re proud to support local rescues on the West Coast. For every candle purchased, a portion of the proceeds is donated to organizations working tirelessly to find loving homes for homeless pets. Every time you light one of our candles, you’re not just filling your space with a delightful scent—you’re helping a pet in need.

Climate Commitment
Together, we're on a mission to do some serious carbon detox. We're committed to pulling thousands of tonnes of carbon right out of the atmosphere. And here's the best news: every single order we ship is carbon-neutral. It's our way of making sure that every step we take leaves the planet a little greener than we found it.
Here's how it works: For every order we received, a formula is used to calculate the estimated shipping emissions. Based on those estimates, a portion of our revenue goes to carbon removal companies that have been vetted by scientists from Carbon Direct. Those companies use that money to remove however much carbon our shipments created. Any extra funds go toward the further development of carbon removal technologies. Ensuring a brighter, greener future for us all!
We are proud to announce that we are certified as a Women's Business Enterprise through the Women's Business Enterprise National Council, the nation's leading third-party certifier of businesses owned and operated by women.
By including women-owned businesses among their suppliers, corporations and government agencies demonstrate their commitment to fostering diversity and the continued development of their supplier diversity programs, which in turn empowers women as leaders and brings about a more diverse, balanced and sustainable economy.
