Our story

A need for quality, custom pet portraits

We are a husband and wife pet-loving team who started Pet Canvas Co.™ when we realized there was a need for quality, custom pet portraits that are truly representative of individual pets, not just a random animal that is computer-generated with no artistic, human care and handed off as a personalized pet portrait.

The beginning

A special dog needs special art

It all began on December 06th, 2005 when our sweet boy, Riley, came into the world. He was a little girl's best friend. He tried anything asked of him from silly tricks like blowing bubbles in a water dish to serious tricks like completing an agility course while racing the clock. He loved everyone he came across and he loved to play, especially with squeaker toys, even into his senior years.

Riley gave us 18 1/2 years of life, a blessing we didn't think was possible. Once Riley passed at the end of May 2024, it hit hard. We wanted to honor him with a large custom piece of art to remember him by.

A positive outcome, helping others

We thought we had found the perfect pet canvas website to artistically re-create a photo of Riley, however, it turned out we were very wrong. The dog in the art preview they provided us was a random poodle, not Riley, and they were also unable to re-create the special toy he was holding. After several failed rounds of revisions, it was clear that if we wanted the portrait done correctly, we needed to make the art ourselves.

Utilizing numerous computer programs and graphic design skills, we were able to create the perfect artistic likeness to Riley in the colorful abstract graffiti style we were looking for. Realizing that we had the skills to produce a quality, custom pet canvas that exceeded what was currently commercially available, we wanted to help other's memorialize their own pets with artistic, custom pet portraits. This is how Pet Canvas Co.™ began. Read more about it on our blog.

Pet Canvas Co.™ values

The mission of Pet Canvas Co.™ is to create quality, custom pet portraits that truly represent each pet's unique characteristics.

Since we were once seeking our own personalized pet portrait, we know where other custom pet portrait companies have gone wrong. We created Pet Canvas Co.™ to solve those issues. We want the portrait process to be easy for you and respectful of your pet's likeness right from the start.

Know that at Pet Canvas Co.™, we are people that care. We treat each portrait as if it were our own pet and as if the canvas would be placed on our own wall. 

In memory of Riley
