Pet Portraits by Angie Ketelhut - Nationwide
Pets are such lovable characters. Faithful and so very happy to see us every time we walk in the door. They bring so much joy to our days and lives. Our furry friends also have a mischievous side to their personalities at times, which is very endearing and precious. Growing up with a love for furry friends, (dogs, cats, guinea pigs, etc) it seemed only natural they would become the muses for my paintings. Growing up, I befriended many furry friends in my neighborhood and would spend hours playing and taking care of them. Art has always been a huge part of my life and has been a healing outlet. I graduated from Minnesota State University, Moorhead with a BFA in Illustration. Combining my love for pets and art brings me much joy with an objective to spread happiness to others. I am located just outside Seattle, WA. I paint custom portraits for people and pets in the U.S. and abroad as well. Portraits are hand-painted on canvas with professional acrylics. I work from photos and descriptions of the pet. The canvases are gallery wrapped, making the paintings ready to hang on the wall. Each one of my paintings is one of a kind and sure to bring a smile. Prices begin at $125 and up. More examples of my work at artbyangie.com

🌟 About Angie Ketelhut
Angie is a pet portrait artist based in Seattle, Washington, serving clients locally in King County and nationwide through PetWorks, one of the leading platforms for finding pet portrait artists across the United States. With a passion for capturing the personality, energy, and spirit of animal companions, Angie creates handcrafted portraits that go far beyond what a photograph can offer, each one a genuine one-of-a-kind work of art, made from your favorite photo and tailored to your exact vision.
Working with Angie: What to Expect
Commissioning a portrait with Angie is a personal, collaborative experience from start to finish. It begins with a conversation — you'll share your favorite photos of your pet, discuss the style and medium that appeals to you, and talk through any specific ideas or requests you have in mind.
Angie takes the time to understand not just what your pet looks like, but who they are — their character, their quirks, and the qualities that make them yours.
From there, Angie gets to work. Most pet portrait artists on PetWorks share progress photos along the way, giving you the opportunity to provide feedback and request adjustments before the portrait is complete. Once you're happy with the result, your finished portrait is shipped directly to you or delivered as a digital file — depending on the medium and your preference. Most portraits are completed within 2–6 weeks, though timelines vary by medium, complexity, and the artist's current schedule. Always confirm turnaround with Angie before booking, especially if you're working toward a gift deadline.

Tips for a Great Portrait
Getting the most out of your commission starts with good reference photos. Clear, well-lit shots taken at your pet's eye level work best. Natural light is your friend, and flash-heavy photos tend to flatten features and wash out color. Capture a few different expressions and angles if you can: a close-up of the face, a relaxed resting shot, and a playful or characteristic pose gives your pet portrait artist the most to work with.
Beyond photos, the more you can share about your pet's personality the better. Is your dog goofy and energetic, or calm and dignified? Does your cat have a signature expression? The small details you share help Angie bring genuine character to the portrait rather than simply reproducing a likeness. If you have a specific style, background, or size in mind, mention it upfront — most pet portrait artists welcome creative direction and will work with you to bring your vision to life.
As a general guide, pet portrait artist commissions in the US typically range from $75–$200 for small portraits, $200–$500 for medium, and $500–$1,200 or more for large or multi-pet works. Browse Angie's pricing packages above for specific rates.
