Use a portrait frame and include the face, body, and paws where possible. Avoid crops that cut through the pet’s head or torso.

Five clear steps
Nothing important hides between upload and download.
Generation time can vary with demand, so we email you instead of making you watch a spinner.
- 01
Upload one clear pet photo
Choose a well-lit portrait image where one pet’s face and body are visible. You must own the photo or have permission to use it.
- 02
Choose a performance and format
Preview the available performances, then choose a 6-second Single Shimmy, a continuous 12-second Extended Shimmy, or the complete 16-second Full Rant. Matching music or voiceover is included.
- 03
Review, then pay once
The final review shows your exact one-time price before you continue to Stripe. There is no trial, subscription, automatic renewal, or recurring charge.
- 04
We generate and finish the result
AI adapts the chosen movement to your pet. We check the file and sync the matching music or voiceover. A failed or corrupted result never counts as delivery.
- 05
Open your private result link
We email a secure link when the video is ready. Download and save it before the 30-day media deletion window ends.
A photo that gives AI a fair chance
Clear beats professional.
You do not need a studio portrait. You do need a single, recognisable subject with enough visual information to animate.
Choose even light
Natural or soft indoor light helps preserve markings, fur texture, and facial details.
Keep the frame simple
One pet and an uncluttered background reduce ambiguity. Avoid hands covering the animal or heavy motion blur.
Use the detailed checklist: the pet photo guide explains portrait cropping, lighting, file requirements, and why one unobstructed animal is easier for motion transfer.
After checkout
A checked result, a support path, and an expiry date.
Private delivery
Your order email receives a secure result link. It is not published to a public gallery by default.
Download locally
Save the finished video, including its matching audio, to your own device. PetShimmy does not keep it as permanent cloud storage.
30-day deletion
Source photos and generated media are scheduled for automatic deletion after 30 days. Once processing finishes, you can delete them earlier from the private result page; contact support for urgent in-flight deletion.
Delivery safeguard: technical failures do not count as delivery. If we cannot complete the purchased service, see the refund policy for the available remedies.
AI limitation: PetShimmy aims for a broadly recognizable pet performing the selected dance. Timing, poses, expressions, paws, limbs, fur, background details, and anatomy can vary or become stylized. Read the AI and quality methodology for the current model and review process.
Ready when the photo is
Give your pet the floor.
Choose one clear photo and a 6-second Single Shimmy, continuous 12-second Extended Shimmy, or complete 16-second Full Rant. Your exact one-time total appears at final review.
