A custom pet portrait made from your own photo
Every pet owner has that one photo: the dog mid-yawn on the sofa, the cat staring down from the top of the bookcase. A custom pet portrait from MakeYour turns a picture like that into a framed work of art. You upload the photo, choose a look, and our AI creates the portrait in about 30 seconds. You then see it in the frame before you order, so you know exactly what will end up on your wall.
No sitting still, no posing, no studio. Your dog or cat only needs to have been photographed once, in good light.
About 20 looks for dogs and cats
Some owners want something grand. Others want a portrait that makes the whole family laugh. You can choose from about 20 looks:
- Classic art: royal portrait, Renaissance, Victorian, medieval, Mona Lisa and Van Gogh's Starry Night.
- Characters: knight, superhero, astronaut, pirate, film star, rock star, cowboy, chef and detective.
- Playful styles: pop art, cartoon, caricature and 3D animation.
A sleepy Labrador makes a surprisingly dignified duke in a royal portrait. A cat who already rules the house looks entirely at ease in Victorian dress. Pick the look that matches the character you live with.
How a pet portrait from photo is made
A pet portrait from photo needs nothing more than the picture on your phone. It takes three steps:
- Upload a photo of your dog or cat. A sharp, well-lit picture works best.
- Choose your look. The AI creates the design in about 30 seconds.
- Add a name or a short title, like "Good Boy", and check the portrait on the frame before ordering.
Use a photo with one animal in it. With a single dog or cat in the picture, the whole portrait is about that one face.
Black wooden frame, white mount, real glass
We print your portrait and set it in a frame of black wood, with a white mount (passe-partout) around the picture. The front is real glass, not acrylic. There are two sizes, 30 × 40 cm and 40 × 50 cm. If you already have a frame in mind, you can also order the portrait without one, as an A3 poster.
The dark frame and the white border keep all the attention on your pet, whether you picked a royal portrait or a superhero.
A pet portrait gift with their name on it
As a pet portrait gift, it suits anyone who calls their dog a member of the family: a friend who has just adopted a rescue, parents whose children left home while the dog stayed, a colleague whose cat turns up in every video call. With the name on it, a personalised pet portrait belongs to that one animal only. It is also a gentle way to remember a pet that is no longer around.
Would they rather build it than hang it? The same design is also available as a pet portrait puzzle with 500 pieces.
Frequently asked questions
How can I create my own custom pet portrait? Upload a photo of your pet, choose one of the looks and add a name if you like. The AI makes the portrait in about 30 seconds and you see it in the frame before you buy.
Is the pet portrait painted by hand? No, it is printed. That means you see the finished portrait before ordering, instead of waiting weeks for an artist.
Can I have two pets in one portrait? One animal per photo works best. If you share your home with two dogs, or a dog and a cat, a portrait of each is the better choice.
Does it work for cats as well as dogs? Yes. All the looks were made for both dogs and cats.
