Hello lovely humans!ββββββββ
ββββββββ
It's been a long while since I introduced myself to the new people that follow Peachy Keen Pets, so it was due!ββββββββ
ββββββββ
I'm Niki, the owner, designer, creator, seamstress one-woman show behind PKP. Mom to 2 black rescue pugs, Ebby and Ludo, self-proclaimed book nerd, and lover of all things dark and spooky! I started this business in 2009 after finding my chronic pain and disabilities from a bad accident too much to handle with my job at the time, so I came up with the idea, took some sewing classes, and jumped into a business course!ββββββββ
ββββββββ
It's not always easy with this kind of chronic pain, illness and disability to run a business that depends on me measuring, cutting, ironing and sewing each piece, on top of marketing, events, shipping and everything else that comes with it! But I've been so lucky to still be around this long with so many wonderful people supporting me and the business through the years. ββββββββ

When you shop small with an indie business like mine, you make a huge difference to the life of a person (and her pugs) and I just wanted to thank you all for being here, for sharing your photos, for telling your friends about PKP, for sharing our posts and showing me so much love when I see you in person. ββββββββ
ββββββββ
If you love PKP, I would be so grateful if you recommend us in the "buy Canadian" posts you see floating around, it's been an exceptionally challenging 2024 and any boost and word of mouth you're comfortable with is so greatly appreciated. Thank you all for being awesome!ββββββββ
ββββββββ
I'll be creating some surprises for people this year for our mailing list subscribers, so the last thing I'll say is join up on our website if you want to see what's coming! I will never send more than 2 emails a month, and realistically it'll likely only be once!ββββββββ
ββββββββ
Much love from Niki, Ebby & Ludoββββββββ
