Since joining Spot & Tango during its rebrand, I've had the opportunity to help shape how the brand shows up in the real world. As the product lineup has grown, I've worked across packaging, print, merchandise, and other physical touchpoints to keep everything feeling cohesive while giving each product its own personality.
Some highlights include taking our shipper box from concept to print-ready, developing playful patterns and illustrations for our Snacks packaging, creating new product branding, and designing custom merchandise. I love the challenge of finding little ways to make even the most functional pieces feel thoughtful, memorable, and distinctly Spot & Tango.

Shipper Box
I completed this project from concept to print ready files. I wanted the box to have something wrapping around to keep it visually interesting on all sides. Our boxes have become a focal point, generating numerous tagged photos from customers on delivery day.
Snacks
Rolling with an initial front layout design from our branding agency, I created the concept of each bag having its own bold background pattern. This approach not only distinguishes each different Snack but also encapsulates the joy of feeding your dog a treat. I illustrated the tongue sticking out portrait style dogs to celebrate the adorable goofiness of a good dog.
Snuffle Mat
I had the oppourtunity to create a Snuffle mat from product to packaging. For the mat itself I wanted to show off our classic dog doodles, slotting them together to make the mat functional. The box then features some of those doodles. I used a similar motif for the Snuffle Mat product logo to tie it all together.
Waste Bags
While creating the designs for this dog parent staple I drew inspiration from the most iconic plastic bag and gave it a dog themed twist.
Toppers
Keeping in line with the rest of our products packaging I featured a dog doodle with emphasis on the tongue licking to highlight how this product makes bowls licked clean.
UnKibble
I assisted with final tweaks and preparing print-ready files for bag designs from our branding agency. I created the Turkey + Sweet Potato bag when we launched a new recipe. I also update designs as needed for recipe reformulations, vendor transitions, etc.
Supplements
I made final adjustments and prepared print-ready files for these. After we launched our rebrand we realized that Supplements lacked a distinctive product name logo, which all other products had. I developed a logo for Supplements, which will soon be implemented on the containers ensuring consistency across all of our our product lines.
Merch
We dipped our toe into some merch for customers so I had the pleasure of creating totes, hats and a dog bandana. I wanted the bags to have a design on them that related to their use, storing all your dog’s stuff to go outside, while the bandana took traditional paisely motifs and added our doodle style spin on them.

Office Mural
When we moved offices I was given the oppourtunity to created a mural for the entry way of our office. It was very fun to bring the dog doodles to a big scale wrapping around our walls!
