Custom pet portrait · from $9FAQs
What is a good gift for a dog lover?
A portrait of their own dog is the gift dog lovers remember: a custom pet portrait from one photo starts at $9 ($19 for 3 styles, $29 for 5) and is previewed within about 24 hours.
What can I get a dog lover who has everything?
Something about their dog rather than for it: a portrait, a family portrait that includes the dog, or the sky from the night the dog came home.
Can I order a dog portrait without telling the owner?
Yes. Use a photo from social media or ask a family member for one. If you don't have a good photo, mark the order as a gift and the owner can upload photos themselves.
Is a digital pet portrait a good Christmas gift?
Yes. It arrives as a high-resolution file you can print at home or at a print shop, frame, or send by email, so it can't get stuck in holiday shipping.
What if the dog has passed away?
A memorial portrait with the dog's name and dates is a gentle choice. Kemuva's Rainbow Bridge pet memorial portrait starts at $19.
