About PawStepz

The PawStepz Team

Celesté has been involved in animal rescue for many years, fostering mostly Pekingese and seeing too many back and knee injuries over the years.  She recognized the need for affordable pet steps– and when yet another peke with a back injury came into her life –a home made solution that was affordable and functional, was created. 

Being in the peke rescue industry, friends and fellow peke owners got to hear about the steps that Celesté had designed and made… and PawStepz was born.  Designs were tweaked to cater for most pets, sizing was fine-tuned, suppliers were sourced, finishing touches were applied and before we knew it, people across South Africa were contacting us to have their very own PawStepz delivered….

Nita was mostly admin, sales and advertising, enthusiastically jumping on board to promote, contribute to the long hours being put in, provide the coffee and watch in fascination as PawStepz grew into a household name.

We, as owners of PawStepz, have worked tirelessly to ensure that the high standard set in the early days of PawStepz has been maintained, and that all new products and ideas introduced to our range meet those same high standards.  After all, it’s about the pets getting the best care and products money can buy, without breaking the bank!

The range now includes steps, hug me anxiety jackets (winter version available) winter jackets and dragon jackets (personalised), rugby support jackets, blankets, cooling beds, snug hug snuggle beds and awesome outdoor roll-up picnic blankies - with much more to come!

Our team is all local and exceptional, and we have to acknowledge that without their hard work and dedication, PawStepz could never have grown into the pet supplier you all know today! 

Our aim continues to be to bring you  affordable, quality products, and to provide support to the animal welfare community, as well as to the community around us.
