Narelle is the founder and creator of Octavia’s Pup Shop, along with her daughter Courtney. A unique high quality boutique handmade business of pet fashion, reversible bandanas, with matching accessories for Mum and Dad, matching scrunchies; earrings; keyrings; and face masks. Octavia’s Pup Shop was created primarily as a learning tool for Narelle's daughter, Courtney, who is homeschooled and is o
n the Autism Spectrum and finds conventional learning very difficult. Narelle helped her create this business for hands on learning, and to equip her for her future. Courtney has achieved so much from handmaking high quality products, bookkeeping, to customer service - selling our unique products at local markets. And now Narelle is a FINALIST in 3 national 2021 Ausmumpreneur Award catagories - Disabled Business Excellence Award, Fashion Business Award and Handmade Business Award. It’s 2 years down the road now and Courtney has found her dream after-school job and is absolutely loving it and credits it all to her hands-on learning through this business and all the wonderful customers along the way! Narelle has continued the business as the demand for these gorgeous products has exploded. Thank you for your support of Courtney through your understanding, sharing our social media and tagging us on Instagram, buying our products and visiting our stall. It means the world to Narelle and Courtney. Please continue to tag OPS in all your photos or send us an email to add your pup into our Pup Gallery. Find us every Thursday at Mindil Beach Sunset Markets 4-9pm from April to October.
