Company details

  1. Artist

Written by the company

I am a Scottish artist specialising in pastel and coloured pencil pet portraits full of depth, warmth and detail. A doting owner to my own dog, I understand that your pet isn't just a pet but a cherished family member. I aim to capture and enhance their unique character and features in my lovingly hand-drawn (non-digital) portraits. Your portrait will not be of A pet, but YOUR pet. Many of my portraits are memorials to pets no longer with us, and I take pride in handling these with empathy, respect, and personalised customer service. I can breathe new life into old memories to show your pet in their prime again and preserve their memory for years to come. I work from photographs, so the whole process can happen online without you having to leave your house! I provide worldwide postage and have created portraits for people across the world. My portraits can also make wonderful presents for your relatives or friends. E-gift cards are also available on my website, to allow you to treat your loved ones. This allows them to pick their favourite photos and enjoy the experience of seeing their portrait come to life. I provide progress photos throughout to allow customers to be part of the process. This is something my customers usually get a lot of joy from. I have many years' experience and have created over 100 portraits so you can rest assured that you are in safe hands and will receive excellent customer service, advice and a beautiful artwork. Happy tears guaranteed!

Caroline responded promptly and was really helpful in understanding what I wanted and helping to chose the right photographs. She keeps in touch with updates and has done a wonderful job capturing the essence of our much missed dog.

Amazing work 😁😁

Commissioned Caroline to do a pastel picture of my two,Scottish terriers. She kept me in the loop the whole process and sent updates as the work progressed. I was absolutely delighted with the result and what a gift !!.. I have purchased other pieces of Caroline’s work and could not rate her highly enough.
You would not be disappointed 😄

Magical artwork!

If you’re here reading reviews and considering a pet portrait from Caroline, I truly cannot recommend her highly enough.

Caroline accepted a commission request from me in 2023 to do a unique piece of my cat Seri and dog Sorin based on a Magic the Gathering card (the reel is on her instagram!) and I am sooooo thankful she said yes!! From the very first contact I felt completely understood and reassured, and it was wonderful receiving regular updates of her artwork in progress. My partner was spellbound when he opened his birthday gift and I knew then that another commission or several would be on the cards (… puns intended).
I reached out again in 2025 when we had a new fluffy addition to the household, Mishra, and we marked it with another MtG pet portrait. Caroline’s style perfectly captured our cheeky kitten’s personality. Words don’t do these portraits justice.

On a practical note: the advice on caring for and displaying the artwork, the secure and protective packaging, and the involvement I had in decision making felt really thoughtful and professional.

Caroline is remarkably talented and we treasure her art, which is pride of place in our home; our visitors are always amazed by what she has created and we are so grateful for these magical portraits of our fluffy family members.

🐾 “the fur is impressively realistic. What a skilled artist! ” — my partner, receiving his second birthday commission
🐾 “maow” — my cat, upon being told she cannot step across said portrait and smudge her likeness
🐾 “see, we Need another pet to complete the triptych…” — anonymous individual, definitely not using artwork to justify more fluffy friends

Apologies for the late reply, Trustpilot decided to keep you secret! Thank you for such an amazing review, it has been wonderful working for you. I love the MtG pieces, they are challenging but so much fun to create with you! I love the quotes, I may have to use these somewhere! 😂 Until the next time... 🪄

Caroline is simply THE BEST!

Caroline is simply THE BEST! I contacted Caroline due to the unexpected loss of my best friend and soulmate, a beagle named Max. Max was my shadow and we went everywhere and did everything together. Losing him was earth shattering and the emptiness I felt in my heart was profound. As soon as I reached out to Caroline I knew my boy would be given the respect and love he deserved. The compassion and empathy Caroline gave me during our multiple conversations regarding memorializing Max exceeded my expectations. I was sad, tearful, and heartbroken, but she was professional and understanding and went out of her way to make sure she captured every detail of my sweet boy's personality and looks. I received updates along the way and the final portrait absolutely blew me away with just how perfect she got Max. I actually thought I was looking at a photograph! Caroline brought my sweet, handsome, and loving boy back to life and he was coming home to be with me forever! The talent Caroline has is exceptional and I will forever be grateful for her care and concern during my darkest days. My only regret is that I never thought to have a portrait done while Max was alive in a fun and positive way. Do not hesitate to have Caroline capture your pet as she will go above and beyond your expectations with personalized detailing more than your wildest dreams could have imagined. My sweet boy is back home with me and he will never leave me again and I have Caroline to thank for that. She helped bring peace to my broken heart. Forever grateful.

Thank you for such a wonderful message. It has been so lovely working with you on Max's portrait, he was so lucky to have been loved so much by you. People like you are why I love what I do, I'm so glad you trusted me to do something so special for you. A little part of you and Max will stay with me too.

An incredible artist for pet portraits!

Caroline has now worked on two beautiful pet portraits for us. Her communication is fabulous, at every stage of the process. Any questions we had were quickly answered. Her attention to detail was outstanding and from just a short description of our pets and some photos, she captured their individuality perfectly. I cannot recommend Caroline highly enough if you are looking for an artist with a true gift for pet portraits!

A friend recommended Caroline after getting a couple of portraits done of their own pets. Now having had one drawn of my own dog I can't thank Caroline enough, the portrait is fantastic and represents a true likeness.
Caroline is a talented, professional artist and I would highly recommend the pet portrait service.

The best around

Caroline is absolutely fantastic at what she does. I have had three portraits done now, and each and every one had brought a lump to my throat. They were so good and so realistic. Caroline helps with ideas, including format, backgrounds etc and provides so much support when you’re trying to decide what to get. She kept in touch with me throughout and provided progress reports. An absolute talent. I wouldn’t go anywhere else. Thank you so much Caroline!

Caroline was a joy to work with on a portrait of our black lab Jonah. We'd sent over a number of pics and she advised on which was best with some mockups to help us choose. The final picture was stunning and captured our lab to perfection. (Not an easy job with a black lab). Received the picture very well wrapped. All in all, a quick, easy and satisfying process. Thanks Caroline
