About Customization

Do you just do cats and dogs?

We can create custom designs for any animal, regardless of species or breed. To date, we have created one-of-a-kind masterpieces for dogs, cats, birds, horses, mini pigs, and even hedgehogs!
Our artists are extremely talented and are able to create custom creations for any animal on the planet.

Will you send proofs or previews before making my product?

Since most of our custom products are handmade, we do not offer previews or proofs.
But don't worry! All customers will be able to preview the work and make any requested changes via email once the product is complete.
If the photos you provide do not look optimal, we will contact you to reshoot them. Please be sure to click here to review the image guidelines.

Can I have more than one pet in a portrait?

Yes! Check out our two-pet portraits here and three-pet portraits here . If you would like more than 3 pets in a single portrait, please reach out to our support
team at support@petportraart.com to help.

Is my photo good enough to use?

If you've followed our photo guidelines, your photos are likely good enough to use.

  1. Take photos in a well-lit area. It's best to use no filters and natural light.
  2. Shoot close, showing your pet's ears, head, neck, and chest. This will allow us to better capture the pet's face. Photos of your pet lying down are less than ideal.
  3. Avoid taking overhead or blurry photos.


We have a dedicated team that checks photos when orders are placed. If there's an issue with your photo, we'll let you know quickly by email.

If we do need new photos from you, this may add a few days to your delivery time.

Please check our Image Guidelines for more information.

Does the background of my photo matter?

No, it shouldn't matter. If there's a lot of stuff in the background, don't worry. Of course, a clear background is better. But don't get hung up on it! It doesn't really make a difference.

Can I change my order?

You can change your order within 24 hours. If you placed your order more than 24 hours ago, we cannot guarantee that you can change it.

Contact support@petportraart.com and we'd be happy to help you revise your pet portrait order.

What is Skip the Line?

"Skip the Line" is an optional add-on service that pushes your custom work to the front of our order queue. By queuing up early, your work will be completed and delivered faster than orders without this option. Please note that this does not affect shipping speed or delivery time.

How do you create your artwork?

No two pets are exactly alike—and so are their artworks.

Since each piece is handmade, subtle differences in texture, shape, and detail are normal. It is these differences that make each artwork unique.

Can I add or remove content from my pet photos?

Yes, we can add accessories, extra background colors, or other embellishments to your chosen portrait.

Shipping and Payment

What are the shipping times and prices?

I ordered multiple items, will they be delivered together?

While we always aim to ship your items together, occasionally one item in your order will be completed early and shipped first.

Will I get a tracking number?

All orders come with tracking and you will receive a tracking number and delivery updates via email.

Why doesn't my tracking number work?

Don't worry, it may be that the system cannot query the individual order number. Send an email to our support team and we will tell you the location of the order.

Why was my order returned to sender?

Sometimes, orders are returned to the sender because no one is home to sign for the package.

Other reasons for returns include an incomplete delivery address or incorrect contact details.

We will ship it back to you at no charge. Don't worry, you will receive your order!

What payment methods do you accept?

We accept all major debit and credit cards including Visa, Visa Debit, Mastercard, American Express and more.

Returns/Refunds

What if I don't like the product?

We are 100% committed to ensuring your satisfaction with our work!

Once the work is complete, we will notify you via email. You have two days to provide feedback or confirmation. If you do not receive a reply after two days, we will consider it your acceptance of the work and begin shipping. We are honored to offer free alterations so you can enjoy your gift with peace of mind.

Do you offer refunds?

Because your order is 100% unique and custom-made for you and your pet, we do not accept returns/refunds.

If you receive the wrong item, size, or style, or if the item is damaged during shipping, we will replace it unconditionally. In this case, please inform us within 48 hours of receiving the item.

If you have any questions about your order, please let us know and we will resolve them for you.

Please remember that we offer a confirmation and alteration service before shipping to ensure your 100% satisfaction!

Your artwork will be completed within 2-6 weeks after you place your order. If you choose expedited production, you can preview your artwork within 1-2 weeks.

I entered the wrong address, what do I do now?

If you misspelled or filled in the wrong address automatically, just reply to the order confirmation email and confirm it. After re-confirming the address, please notify us by email. If the address is incorrect, we will change it for you within 24 hours.
