What pet parents are saying...

I ordered a portrait of my sweet boy Howie, who had been by my side for 14 wonderful years. He was more than a pet—he was my best friend. I wanted something beautiful to remember him by, especially as we were preparing to say goodbye due to his liver failure. The portrait captured his spirit perfectly. It brought tears to my eyes. Now I have a piece of him with me always. Thank you for helping me honor him in such a meaningful way."

"Losing her so suddenly left a huge hole in our hearts. I couldn’t stop thinking about her, missing the way she followed us around and played outside with so much joy. I wanted something that could keep her memory alive—something I could hold onto. The portrait brought me so much comfort. It’s more than just artwork; it’s a reminder of her spirit and the love we shared. I’ll treasure it always."

Blue wasn’t just a pet—she was a part of our family. In the short time we had her, she gave us a lifetime of memories. Losing her broke us. When I saw the portrait, I didn’t expect it to bring such a wave of emotion. It felt like she came home again. Now, every time I walk past it, I smile through the tears. It’s not just art—it’s healing.

My best friend recently lost her dog, who had been with her for almost 10 years. She was absolutely heartbroken, and I wanted to get her something meaningful — something more than just flowers. I wasn’t sure what to do at first, but I found your custom pet portraits and decided to give it a try. When she opened it, she just stared at it and started to cry. She said it looked just like him. A few weeks later, I visited her and saw the portrait on her shelf, right next to a little candle. I could tell it brought her comfort. Thank you for helping me give her something so personal and special.

After her dog passed from distemper, my girlfriend was completely heartbroken. He was her first pet, and their bond was everything to her. I wanted to do something—anything—that might bring her a little comfort.

I ended up having a pillow made with his photo, hoping it would be a small way to honor his memory. When she saw it, she held it tight and cried quietly. She told me it felt like a part of him was still with her. I was worried it might make her feel worse, but it did the opposite. Thank you for helping me give her something she truly needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes a good photo?

1.) Close up time! Be sure your pet's photo is taken in a well lit area. Ideally without a filter and in natural lighting.

2.) Close up and head on, showing as much of the ears, head, neck, and chest as possible. This will allow us to get a good crop of your pets face.

3.) Avoid overhead, overly filtered or blurry photos. We are typically unable to illustrate photos of your pet lying down.

What animals do you illustrate?

Yes! We create portraits for unique pets around the world. From cute bunnies to pet birds. Odds are, if it's an animal, we will create a portrait for you. Please note: at this time we do not create portraits of humans (no matter how cute you are!).

What if I need to make a change to my order?

Yes! We are happy to help with changes to your pet portrait order as long as you reach out to support@miloandcleo.com within 30 minutes of your order being placed. 

After 30 minutes most changes, including address updates, can no longer be made. Please note, in some cases, changes to orders may result in shipping delays.

Can I preview my portrait before it ships?

In an effort to get your order to you as efficiently as possible, we do not offer artwork previews or proofs. But don't worry! If your provided photo won't make the best portrait, we’ll reach out to you for a new one. Be sure to review Image Guidelines here .
