A personalized pet song is an original song about your own dog, cat or other animal, for a living pet or one who has passed, and you can make one on Songiftly by describing their personality, habits and favorite moments together.
Pets have outsized personalities: the cat who judges every guest, the dog who treats the mail carrier as a daily emergency. Those quirks make for some of the funniest, most specific songs there are.
If your pet has died, a song can hold the memories gently instead. Some people play it while looking through old photos, or share it with family who loved them too.
What to put in the song
Their personality
Bossy, shy, food-obsessed, dramatic. Describe them like a character and the lyrics will follow.
Daily rituals
The morning wake-up, the walk route, the spot on the couch. Routines are often what you remember most.
How they came home
Adopted from a shelter, found under a car, picked from a litter. Their arrival story makes a good first verse.
What they mean to you
Company through a move, a lonely year, a growing family. Say what they've carried you through.
Not sure how to start?
Copy one of these into your story and finish the sentence.
- The day we brought you home, you…
- Every morning at six, you…
- You're scared of the vacuum, but never of…
- I still look for you by the door when…
Example chorus
“Example chorus for Biscuit”
Biscuit, chasing shadows down the hall
Muddy paws and a squeaky ball
You steal my socks and my favorite chair
But home is anywhere you're there
Tips for a song they'll love
Pick the mood for the moment
Funny or joyful fits a pet who is still with you. Tender or nostalgic suits a pet who has passed.
Try the kids style
If children love the pet too, the kids style keeps it bouncy and easy to sing along to.
Use every nickname
Most pets have five names. Include the silly ones and they may end up in the lyrics.
Choose a point of view
Sing to the pet, about them, or from the whole family. Say which in your story so the lyrics stay consistent.
Styles that suit it
Mood: Funny or Tender & reflective. Or pick “Choose for me” and we'll match the style to the occasion.

Can I make a song for a pet that has died?+
Yes. Write about your favorite memories and what you miss, then choose a tender or nostalgic mood with an acoustic or folk style. It can be a comforting way to remember them.
Does it have to be a dog or a cat?+
No. Rabbits, horses, birds, lizards and fish can all have songs. Mention what kind of animal they are so the lyrics fit.
Will the song sing my pet's name?+
Yes, the name you give is sung in the chorus. If the name is unusual, listen closely, and use one of your 2 free re-records if a take doesn't sound right.
Is a pet song a good gift for someone else?+
It can be a thoughtful gift for a friend who just adopted, or one grieving a pet. If you don't know the animal well, ask a family member for a few habits and stories.
