Handsome Mountain is a pet supplies company that makes adventure-ready pet products that are purposefully designed for both you and your dog to appreciate. We want you to create memorable outdoor explorations, and uninterrupted cozy days at home together. We take pride in using high-quality materials fitted to both withstand the elements, and be as earth friendly as possible.
Our handcrafted products are primarily made in North Vancouver, Canada. We respectfully acknowledge that we live and work on the traditional and unceded territories of the Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish) and Səl̓ílwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.
All of our products are greatly inspired by the life and culture of living in the Pacific North West, and experiencing the wild outdoors with our trusty sidekicks. We are passionate about our animals, animal welfare, and have a love for high quality design that is both fun and functional for you and your pets to love.
Handsome Mountain wants to create a community surrounding the brand that consists of people who are animal lovers, animal welfare advocates, and enthusiasts alike.
Jesse Nightingale is the owner & designer behind the brand. Weaving her years of experience within the fashion industry, retail world, textile arts, and film costuming together to fuse a wild and wonderfully creative collection dedicated to 'all things dog' and the undeniable bonds we share with our beloved pets.
She has a degree in Haute Couture Fashion Design & Textile Arts. She's also dabbled in many Business courses when attending University. Continually expanding her interest and knowledge within the Arts by practicing and learning new creative endeavours on her own.
Both of her dogs were lovingly adopted. She is a serious advocate for the ongoing 'Adopt Don't Shop' movement, and supports local charities that give back to shelters, or causes that she feels are in greater need. Her big Husky Shepherd mix Beau/Beaumont was adopted from the BCSPCA in Kelowna in 2013, and her little fully blind Chihuahua Daschund mix is from Las Animas Dog Rescue in Puerto Vallarta. She has happily brought animals across the border to help them find new and loving homes.
Over the past 14 years, Jesse has lived in multiple neighbourhoods of Vancouver, North Vancouver, and even a couple of years living over on Bowen Island. She doesn't see herself leaving any time soon, as this is a place that she calls home, and now holds a very special place in her heart.
