How it works

  1. 1

    Upload a pet photo

    A clear photo of one dog or cat, ideally looking at the camera. No photo handy? Preview the styles on our sample dog and cat.

  2. 2

    Royal portrait is selected. Switch to 3D cartoon, chibi, watercolor, oil painting, Van Gogh or sticker in one tap.

  3. 3

    Save the portrait for a frame, a mug or a card, or send it to the Image Upscaler for a bigger print.

Why people use it

Royal portrait in one tap

Your pet in a red velvet cape, lace collar and gold chain, painted like a Renaissance masterpiece.

Keeps their markings

Fur color, patches and ears carry over, so the portrait still looks like your pet.

Many looks

3D cartoon, chibi, sticker, watercolor, oil, Van Gogh, ukiyo-e, figurine and more.

Made to print

Upscale the result for a framed print, a canvas, a mug or a birthday card.

One price per portrait

Each portrait costs 2 credits. Try it without an account using free daily credits.

A portrait your pet deserves

Custom pet portraits are one of the most popular gifts for pet owners, and hand-painted ones take weeks and cost a lot. With a pet portrait from a photo, you get a regal Renaissance painting of your dog or cat in seconds, and you can try a cartoon, watercolor or Van Gogh version of the same photo before you choose.

Tips for a better pet portrait

  • Get down to their level. Photos taken at your pet's eye height look the most like a classic portrait.
  • Use good light. Daylight by a window shows fur color and markings best.
  • One pet per portrait. For the royal look, crop to one animal. Other styles handle two pets at once.
  • Try a few looks. Tick Compare styles to run the royal portrait, a cartoon and a watercolor on the same photo at once.

Gifts and keepsakes

A pet portrait makes a great birthday or holiday gift, and a gentle memorial for a pet who is gone. Upscale it with the Image Upscaler before printing. For a toy version of your pet, try the AI Action Figure, and for a painting of any photo, see Photo to Painting.

Limitations

The AI paints a portrait in your pet's likeness rather than a copy of the photo, so the pose and small details can change. Collars, tags and toys may be redrawn or left out. Results made with free credits carry a small watermark; results made with purchased credits don't.
