Hi, I’m Lauren.

If you walked into my home, (after a warm welcome from my kelpie, Roo) you'd notice a mix of things:

• A hand-painted fruit bowl, found on an overseas holiday
• A thrifted cowhide rug
• A landscape painting by my grandmother

I like homes that feel collected. A little mismatched. Lived in and personal, like the people who live there.

But for years, there was one piece in my home that I was never satisfied with.

Roo’s dog bed.

If you know me, you know how much I love Roo. So of course, I wanted to give him the best bed I could find.

I scoured the internet, forums, pet stores and boutiques until eventually settling on one. They ticked a few boxes, but they always felt like a compromise in one way or another. I never found one worth sticking with.

At some point, the thought became really clear:

A dog bed should be good enough last the life of your dog.
But it shouldn’t have to look the same for all those years.

We don't throw our mattresses away when we want to experiment with a new look - we get new bedsheets.

That idea is what started STAY.

I spent the next three years working with an Italian furniture designer and a premium mattress manufacturer to create a dog bed that's truly worth keeping.

Natural, breathable materials.

Orthopaedic comfort.

And a two-piece modular design so the covers can be mixed and matched frequently, for a bed that's genuinely unique to your style.

That's the STAY way.

So if you’re the kind of person who fills their home with pieces that mean something, who appreciates spaces with texture and substance, and who loves their dog as a member of the family; I think you’ll understand exactly why STAY had to exist.

Now, settle in and stay awhile,

Lauren
