Photos capture what they look like. This book preserves who they are.
Your camera roll may be filled with photos, but photos alone can’t capture their funny quirks, favourite things, special milestones or the everyday moments that make them part of the family. My Years With You brings their photos and stories together in one meaningful keepsake, so the details you love most are never lost.
Inside you’ll find:
- Thoughtful prompts to capture your dog’s unique story
- Space to record milestones, memories and favourite things
- Dedicated spaces for photos, writing and keepsakes
- Two-page spreads for treasured memories
- Relaxing dog-themed colouring pages
Designed to help you:
- Preserve the stories behind your favourite photos
- Record the funny quirks and little details you never want to forget
- Celebrate the adventures and everyday moments you share
- Capture your dog’s personality in a way photos alone cannot
- Create a keepsake your family will treasure for years to come
Complete it throughout your dog’s life or use it to gather your cherished memories after they’ve passed. There’s no right time to begin preserving a story that means so much.
They’re part of the family. Their story deserves to be treasured too.
We record our children’s milestones, favourite things and funny little moments, but rarely do the same for the dogs who grow alongside our families.
My Years With You gives their story a home, bringing their photos, milestones, personality and everyday memories together in one keepsake you can treasure forever.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a memorial book or a journal to fill in while my pet is alive?
The answer is... both! Our pet memory books are designed to celebrate your pet's entire story. Many people fill them in throughout their pet's life, while others choose to complete them as a memorial after their beloved companion has passed away. There is no right or wrong way to use it.
Can I use it for any breed or age?
Absolutely! Whether you've welcomed a playful puppy or kitten, adopted an older companion or have shared years together already, the journal is designed for pets of any breed, age or stage of life.
What kinds of memories can I record?
It's the little things you'll miss the most. Record favourite toys, funny quirks, milestones, adventures, nicknames, special memories and everyday moments, alongside the photos that help tell your pet's story.
Is there space for photos?
Definitely! Throughout the journal you'll find dedicated spaces for photos, along with room to write the stories and memories behind them. After all, the best memories are about more than just the picture.
Can I start filling it in after my pet has passed away?
Of course. Many customers choose to complete the journal as a way to celebrate and remember a much-loved companion. It can become a beautiful keepsake filled with the memories, photos and stories that deserve to be treasured.
Is this suitable as a gift?
We think pet lovers deserve thoughtful gifts too! Whether you're celebrating a new puppy or kitten, marking a special milestone or looking for a meaningful sympathy gift, our pet memory books are designed to be treasured for years to come.
What guarantees do you offer?
Your peace of mind matters to us. Every order is backed by our Quality Guarantee. If your journal arrives damaged or has a printing defect, we'll organise a replacement as quickly as possible. We also offer 30-day returns, including for change of mind, so you can shop with confidence. Please see our Returns Policy for full details.
Should I choose spiral-bound or paperback?
It's all about personal preference! Both editions include exactly the same thoughtfully designed pages. If your child enjoys writing while travelling, the spiral-bound version lays flat for extra convenience. If you prefer the look and feel of a traditional book, the paperback edition is a wonderful keepsake.
How long will my order take to arrive?
Good things take time! Every journal is printed to order, with production usually taking 3 to 8 business days. Your journal is then printed as close as possible to its destination before being shipped, helping to reduce delivery times. You'll receive tracking details as soon as your order is on its way
How much does shipping cost?
We've kept it simple! No matter how many journals you order, your shipping cost stays the same with our flat rate shipping. Orders over A$80 also qualify for free shipping to Australia, the UK, the US, Italy and Ireland, automatically applied at checkout.

I adore this cat memory book. As much as I love to post photos of my cats online, something about cutting out pictures, decorating physical pages, and holding something tangible as a keepsake is so much more valuable. I really appreciate how thoughtful the pages are and especially the dedicated pages for their birthdays. I’ve already recommended this to all my cat loving friends 💕
