Dayna Isom Johnson’s Favorite Etsy Pet Products Have Lots of Mojo

Etsy’s trend expert shares her (and her pup Mojo’s) favorite small businesses on the indie platform.

April 5, 2023

Dayna Isom Johnson is the friend that you want to get a birthday present from. As a trend forecaster at Etsy, her job is pretty much being a pro-gifter, and treasure hunting on the design-aficionado beloved site is more than just a pastime — it’s a career. Featuring hand-crafted homewares and accessories galore, Etsy is a playground for pet parents looking for custom portraits, specialty treats, or hand-knit sweaters for their pets. Johnson shared her favorite of these pet-related finds with Kinship, including those approved by her Jindo / Jack Russell mix, Mojo. Below, the best picks for pet parents from the indie-shopping guru herself.

Btw, our editors (and their pets) picked out these products. They’re always in stock at the time we publish, but there’s a chance they’ll sell out. If you do buy through our links, we may earn a commission. (We’ve got a lot of toys to buy over here, you know?)
