September 1, 2026
If you've priced custom pet portraits, you've seen everything from $20 digital files to $500+ hand-painted commissions. Here's a straight, transparent answer to what a custom pet portrait actually costs — and what you get at each price.
Pet Art Print pricing at a glance
| Format | Sizes | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Canvas (gallery-wrapped) | 8″×10″ → 24″×32″ | $49.99 – $149.99 |
| Framed canvas (black/white/espresso) | 8″×10″ → 24″×32″ | $79.99 – $219.99 |
US shipping is free. You also see a free preview of your pet's portrait before you pay a cent — so you're never paying for a result you haven't seen.
What drives the price
- Size — the biggest factor. Small pieces ($49.99) suit shelves and desks; large statement pieces ($149.99 canvas) anchor a wall.
- Format — framed canvas costs more than gallery-wrapped canvas because of the solid-wood frame.
- Not a factor here: rush fees or "preview" fees. The preview is always free.
AI/print vs hand-painted: the real cost difference

Hand-painted portraits are lovely, but you pay a premium and wait weeks, often without seeing the result first. Our portraits are AI-generated from your photo (not hand-painted), which is exactly why they're faster, more affordable, and previewable.
How fast will it arrive?
Production takes 2–5 business days, then 3–8 business days for US shipping — about two weeks total.
