All pet owners know that when you live with a dog or cat, they take over your home fast. No, we're not just talking about all the hair embedded into the couch cushions (although seriously, how is there always so much?!). We're talking about all the smaller but still impressive ways animals integrate themselves into our spaces, from the cabinets devoted to food bowls and treat bags to the closets full of sweaters, booties, and unnecessary-yet-totally-adorable PJs.
And then, of course, there's the art emblazoned with your pet's face, because nothing says "member of the family" like custom pet portraits showcasing your furry friends in all their lovable glory.
