Your paw prints are unique and absolutely beautiful. Our clients have told us again and again how happy they are to be offered an impression. Being able to send in pictures to match patterns and furs, asking for special requests such as dates or writing a little saying on the back makes this service truly special.

customer testimonials.

Peartree has been delighting pet owners with our handcrafted impressions for more than 25 years. Here's what just a few of those customers had to say.

“I found Peartree Impressions back in 2011 and have been working with them ever since. I have never seen a product that comes close to matching the quality of theirs. I have done a paw impression and personalized it for every pet I have owned since finding Peartree. The incredible detail that depicts a reflection of my pet is just incredible! Thank you everyone at Peartree for sharing your talent with the pet parent world, you all do an amazing job. Thank you, Karen, for having the vision and holding your standards in an amazing product, we all appreciate it!!”

“Thank you so much for the incredible job on my Peartree clay impression for my cat, Bartok. I got a pattern match of his face, and the detail was amazing. You even captured the subtle freckles on his nose. It is a keepsake I will treasure forever of my special boy.”
Breanna D.
“We received Tinsley's paw print last week and I just wanted to reach out to say thank you! You guys did a great job and we absolutely love how it turned out!”
Avery S.
“I wanted to let you know that Donny’s print arrived today. It is a beautiful match to Bella’s. Thank you again for arranging this for us.”
Noelle and Michael K.
“Oh my goodness!! We are speechless!! We are absolutely blown away by Levi's imprint. If I didn't know it wasn't an actual physical print, I couldn't tell. I can't begin to express the comfort this brings us. My dad passed away two weeks ago today, just 6 weeks after Levi. Our hearts are shattered. Thank you so much to you and your team for putting a few of its pieces back together. We will be forever grateful.”
Karin and Matthew P.
“I received my paw print today. Thank you so much!! It’s perfect and captured Kyla’s extra toes amazingly. Thank you so much for all your help along the way. Now I can look at my girl’s paw print and remember her toes fondly."
Lisa C.
“We just received Huey’s pawprint, it is perfect! A good contrast to the one we have for Bruce (Brewster). Thank you so much for a job well done.”
Joan C.
“I am very pleased with the job that was done on Houston’s print. I can tell that you took care and attention when finishing the impression. I also would like to say that your receptionist is absolutely amazing. She is the perfect person to have at the other end of the phone when you are grieving for your pet. Thank you so much for the beautiful job you all did.”
Shelley C.
“I want to take this opportunity to thank you for making this a good experience during a difficult time. Much appreciated. The finished impression turned out beautiful and is a very treasured keepsake. Keep up the good work!”
Larry E.
“I am a current worker in the veterinary industry and have always been amazed at the impressions I have seen come back. I just wanted to pass along how happy I am with the outcome of my Peartree impression for my kitty. You did a wonderful job matching the background to a face picture and color-matching the paws to his eye color! Also, the return time was very quick! Good job!”
Brianne M.
"We have received Honeydew's prints and we absolutely love them!!! The colours and all the details are gorgeous. We were speechless and had tears when we took it out of the box for the first time. The colours really represent Honeydew and his prints look truly authentic even with the enhancements. We truly appreciate all the attention to detail and for all your support and compassion to us as we went through this process. Thank you so much again for this beautiful keepsake!"
Jenna E.
"I want to say thank you! I got back Kactus's pawprint and it looks so amazing. Both his and George's pawprints are so wonderful I can't express how much it means to me. I miss them tons and am so happy to have their pawprints back together again."

"I have had the pleasure of working with Peartree for decades as both a veterinary employee watching clients receive their beautiful paw prints and a grateful recipient of a number of my own mementos from lost fur-kids... This most recent piece of art you talented folks created surpassed even my expectations! So SO worth the wait and the cost! Please, I cannot thank you enough! ❤️"
Gwenhwyfar H.
Paws & Claws Animal Hospital
"Thank you to all of you so much for the beautiful impression that you did for our sweet Henrik. You folks do incredible work and we’re so grateful that we brought the impression to you rather than using the other company. You can see the heart and soul that goes into each one."
Carla W.
"Yesterday we received the pawprint impression for my Chihuahua, Chester. I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to whoever it was that worked on it. You painted his little toes to match his actual toes and the plaque to match his fur. Chester was 17 years old, and this will be something we will treasure always."
Diane

"Thank you for the beautiful paw prints. We were devastated to lose Scoot after 15 years. These pawprints will be treasured by our family, and we thank you for your kindness. We love them. So appreciated!"
The Sutherlands
I would like to thank you for the wonderful job you did on Meka’s footprints and the enclosure of his fur. It made me feel so much better about his passing. He was a wonderful little guy and made me very happy for 16 years.
Shirly P.
"We have received Tabi’s impression and would like to thank you for the beautiful memento you’ve created. The dark black colour reminds me of the dark black coat he had when he was young. The two paw prints, one of his front paws and one of his back paws, are nicely defined and lifelike. I’m so glad that I found your impression kit at our primary veterinarian’s office."
Erika K.
“Our clinic has collaborated with Peartree for years to capture lasting memories of our patients through their outstanding artistry. Their services provide a unique and special way of honouring one's pets. Their new pastel line includes a beautiful variety of colours, which have provided a quick turnaround & cost-friendly option. There is great fluidity throughout the team with caring for attention to detail, and ensuring any errors are smoothed out prior to production. With this comes kind communication. It is a pleasure to offer clients Peartree's options as a staple aftercare option in our clinic.”

frequently asked questions.

Find answers to some of the common questions Peartree receives

Is the personalized impression made from the original imprint that was taken from my pet?

Yes. The imprint sent to Peartree for personalizing is the actual impression that you receive.

Can Peartree make multiple impressions from a single imprint?

Yes. Peartree make multiple impressions from a single imprint by making a mold of the original impression. This process allows us to make as many copies as you would like, while ensuring that the size, shape and texture of the imprint(s) are carefully replicated. All personalizing options are available for each impression. We indicate the original impression on the return packaging.

I already have an impression and would like a copy made. Can Peartree make me another identical clay impression?

Yes. Peartree has a special process to make duplicate impressions. We take a mold of the original imprint then transfer it to a clay disc. This process allows us to make as many copies as you would like, while ensuring that the size, shape and texture of the imprint(s) are carefully replicated. These impressions can be made and personalized with either the original Peartree or Pastels by Peartree™ all-natural clay.

I have an ink print of my pet’s paw, but don't have a clay impression. Can I still get a Peartree impression made?

Yes. We can create a Peartree referencing your ink print. Send us a photo of your ink print next to a ruler for scale. Our artists will carefully represent the size, shape and texture of your pet’s print. These impressions can be made and personalized with either the original Peartree or Pastels by Peartree™ all-natural clay.

Can the clay imprint taken dry out?

Peartree’s all-natural clay impression kits are not intended to be air-dried or oven-baked. To protect the imprint and keep the clay moist, return the plastic seal over the clay and replace the lid.

Imprints taken in the Peartree clay are meant to be kiln-fired. Our Simply Bisque Fired (SBF) process preserves the imprint as a one-of-a-kind ceramic memento with minimal processing.

However, Peartree can process an impression even if it has naturally dried out. It is fragile in this state, so be sure to protect the imprint with additional packaging before shipping.

When a kit has been purchased, does it need to be used immediately?

No. Our kits are packaged so they can be purchased in advance. Keep the container sealed until you are ready to make the imprint. However, if a kit has been opened but is not used, replace the plastic seal and container lid. If the clay isn’t soft enough when you are ready to use it, you may soften it by referring to the “Can I make the clay softer?” question below.

How do I choose style and color options and ship to Peartree’s studio for personalizing?

Visit our color selector tool to view all our options and associated costs. Fill out the personalizing information form included with the kit.

Ship the completed form with the pet’s imprinted kit to our studio:
Peartree Impressions
215 - 35 Avenue NE
Calgary, AB  T2E 2K5
Canada

Be sure to note the tracking number provided by your preferred courier or if using a requested return service label. Once your kit arrives at our studio, we will contact you to confirm receipt, review your order details and take payment for personalizing. Once completed, we will ship your personalized impressions back to you.

What is the difference between Peartree original and Pastels by Peartree™ kits?

Order an original Snow White (natural clay) if you would like all the hand painted color and style options. Order a Pastels by Peartree ™ kit to choose from our 6 pastel tints.

What is the best way to take an impression of my large pet’s paw?

Peartree’s large 5.25” clay disc size can easily capture a large breed imprint.

Remove the lid and plastic seal from your kit and place it on the floor. Position your pet’s foot on the clay disc, then lift the opposite leg so weight is shifted to the imprint foot. Gently but firmly press down with the heel of the hand to ensure all the digits are captured. You may want to enlist help from another person to make this easier.

I am shipping from outside of Canada, is there anything I should know?

Yes. If you are sending your impression for personalizing from the United States across the border into Canada, you may be asked to declare its value for customs purposes. Please indicate that your impression, in its original clay kit, is worth no more than $5.00 per kit returned. If you declare the impression kit at a higher value, any customs duties charged to Peartree will be added to your personalizing costs.
