Pet Trading Card Maker
MakeACard turns photos of dogs, cats, and any pet into custom Pokemon-style trading cards using AI. Upload a pet photo, and Gemini AI generates original card artwork, a creative name, type assignment, and abilities that match your pet's breed, color, and personality.
Your pet deserves a card. Not a generic template with their face pasted on - real AI-generated artwork that captures what makes them unique. Dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, hamsters - if you have a photo, you have a card.
Three Steps. 30 Seconds.
No design skills needed. No prompt engineering. Upload a photo and the AI handles everything.
Upload a Pet Photo
Choose a clear, well-lit photo of your dog, cat, or any pet. Close-up face shots and full-body poses both work well. Make sure the pet is the main subject.
AI Creates Your Pet's Card
Gemini AI recognizes your pet's breed and features, then generates original Pokemon-style artwork, a creative card name, type, abilities, and stats tailored to your pet. Takes 20-30 seconds.
Collect & Share
Your pet's card gets a random rarity roll (Common to Secret Rare). Download at 300 DPI for printing, share on social media, or add it to your collection.
What Makes This Card Type Special
Breed-Aware AI
Gemini AI recognizes dog breeds, cat breeds, and other animal types. A golden retriever gets different treatment than a husky - different card art style, abilities, and type assignment. The AI reads breed-specific features.
Personality-Driven Abilities
A lazy cat might get "Nap Strike" (heals 30 HP). An energetic puppy could get "Zoomies" (40 damage to all opponents). The AI picks up on pose, expression, and context to generate abilities that feel authentic to your pet.
Works With Any Animal
Dogs and cats produce the best results (they're the most common training data), but the AI handles birds, fish, reptiles, hamsters, rabbits, horses, and more. Even unconventional pets like tarantulas and ferrets generate interesting cards.
Shareable & Gift-Ready
Pet cards are the most shared card type on MakeACard. Download at print resolution (300 DPI), share directly to social media, or print as a gift for fellow pet owners. Standard 2.5" × 3.5" fits card sleeves.
Full Rarity System
Your pet has the same shot at Secret Rare (3%) as any other photo. Imagine your cat with animated holographic shimmer and rainbow borders - that's a 3% chance every time you generate.
“Pet owners increasingly treat their animals as full family members. They want personalized products that celebrate their pets' unique personalities.”
Every Card Gets a Rarity Roll
Just like opening a real booster pack. The rarity is randomly assigned at generation time. Higher rarities mean better stats and holographic visual effects.
