Custom Pet Portraits, Designed From Your Photograph

A custom pet portrait starts with a photo you already have. Upload it, choose one of our 12 numbered vintage Santa scenes, and our designer digitally designs your pet into Santa's arms in our warm, old world oil painting style. You approve a proof before anything prints, then it arrives on canvas, framed canvas or a fine art paper print. You can order your custom Santa pet portrait here.

People order these for the obvious reasons and the quieter ones. A new puppy. A dog who has been in the family longer than the children. A cat who owns the chair by the window. And often, a pet who is gone, where a photograph on a phone was never going to be enough.

Dog Portraits and Cat Portraits

Dog portraits are what we are asked for most, every breed from a Great Dane to a Chihuahua, and mixed breeds just as often. Cat portraits suit the same treatment. Because the portrait is made from your photo, it is your pet, not a look-alike from a breed list.

Up to three pets can share one portrait. Upload a photo of each and we bring them together in the same scene.

How to Send a Good Photograph

The portrait can only be as good as the photo you send, so it is worth two minutes of care. Daylight beats flash every time. Get down to your pet's eye level rather than shooting from above, and show the whole pet, head to paws, because Santa is holding them. Make sure the eyes are sharp, because the eyes are what make a portrait look like that particular animal and not just that breed.

Skip filters, screenshots and photos saved from social media. The original from your camera roll keeps the most detail.

Frequently Asked Questions

What do you need from me?

One clear photo of each pet and the number of the Santa you like, or choose "You Choose" and we will pick for you. We do not add names or words to the portrait, so the artwork stands on its own.

Can you do a pet who has passed away?

Yes, and we do it often. Any clear photo works, even an older one.

Is this a painting?

It is digitally designed in our vintage oil painting style, then printed to order on canvas or fine art matte paper. It looks like an old painting, and it is made for your pet alone.

Can I have more than one pet in the portrait?

Yes, up to three. Upload a photo of each pet. Two sit comfortably on any size, and three look best at 24 by 24 inches or larger.

What size should I order?

For a single pet, 16 by 16 inches reads well in a hallway or above a console, and 24 by 24 holds a wall on its own. For two or three pets, go to 24 by 24 or 36 by 36 so each face stays large enough to recognize from across the room.

Canvas, framed canvas or paper print?

Canvas arrives gallery wrapped and ready to hang. Framed canvas adds a solid wood frame in black or white. The paper print is fine art matte paper shipped rolled in a tube, ready for the frame of your choice.

Can I choose a different scene?

Right now every custom pet portrait is set in one of our 12 vintage Santa scenes. They are made for Christmas and look just as good on the wall the rest of the year.

Do you ship to Canada?

Yes, and shipping is free to both the USA and Canada.

Do I see it before it prints?

Yes. We email you a proof, and nothing is printed until you approve it. Keep an eye on your spam folder in case it lands there.
