A Modern Custom Pet Memorial Necklace with Their Photo Engraved
A daily reminder of the love that never fades.
Some bonds are too strong to let go of. This pet memorial necklace is a sleek, minimalist way to keep your companion with you every day. A 1.8cm square pendant is laser-engraved with a portrait made from your own photo, and the back can carry your pet’s name, dates or a short message. It looks like fine jewelry rather than a traditional memorial.
Made to order in 316 titanium steel, this custom square pet portrait necklace suits a dog, a cat, or any animal you love, and comes in silver, gold or rose gold. It is a solid engraved pendant, so it does not open to hold ashes. If you want that, see the urn version linked below.

Pet Memorial Necklace Questions, Answered
Can this necklace hold my pet’s ashes?
No. This square design is a solid engraved piece made to carry your pet’s portrait. For a pendant that opens to hold a pinch of ashes or fur, see our custom pet urn necklace.
What kind of photo works best for the engraving?
A clear, well-lit photo where your pet’s face looks toward the camera. Upload it on this page before checkout. We send a design proof for your approval before we begin.
Can I engrave something on the back?
Yes. The front carries your pet’s portrait, and the back can be engraved with a name, dates or a short message. Enter it on this page when you order, and you will see it on your proof.
Will the engraving fade over time?
The portrait is laser-engraved into the metal rather than printed on the surface, so it is made to hold up to everyday wear. To keep the finish looking its best, avoid swimming, hot tubs and harsh chemicals, and wipe it with a soft cloth.
How big is the pendant and how long is the chain?
The pendant is a 1.8cm square. The box chain is 50cm with a 5cm extender, so you can wear it at about 50cm to 55cm.
Can I see the design before it is engraved?
Yes. We email a digital proof within 2 business days of your order, and we only start engraving once you approve it.
How long does delivery take?
After you approve the proof, we need 3-5 business days to make your necklace. Delivery times then vary by region: US/Canada & Europe 10-20 business days, Australia/NZ 10-20, Middle East 10-18, other regions 15-25. Shipping is free.

“I wanted something I could wear every day to work that didn’t look like a traditional urn. This square necklace is gorgeous. The rose gold is perfect, and the engraving of my Abyssinian cat is incredibly lifelike. The wooden box it came in was a beautiful touch.”
