A pet is family. When they are gone, or even while they are still curled up on the couch next to you, a lot of people want something that holds onto that a little longer than a photo on a phone.
That is where a custom pet portrait engraving comes in. A photo of your dog or cat, engraved onto a tumbler, a slate coaster, a keychain, or a small metal card. It is simple, but it hits different than most gifts, because it is theirs. Nobody else has that exact photo of that exact pet.
What works best
Clear, well lit photos engrave the cleanest. A close up of the face usually comes out better than a full body shot from far away. Black and white or single color photos are the easiest to translate into a laser engraving, but color photos work too, we just convert them first.
Tumblers and coasters are the most popular. They get used every day, which means the portrait gets seen every day too. Check out our custom engraved tumblers and engraved slate coasters. Keychains are a nice smaller option, especially as a gift for someone who just lost a pet and wants something to carry with them. See our custom photo keychains.
Want to carry the portrait in your wallet? Our pet photo card is a thin metal card, the size of a business card, that fits right in a wallet slot. It is one of the most personal things we make.
A gift that works for a lot of occasions
Birthdays, holidays, a pet memorial, or just because. This is one of those gifts that does not need a big occasion attached to it. It just needs to matter to the person getting it.
