Dockling - Turn your pet photo into a pixel pet that lives in your dock

by
Upload a photo of your pet, partner, or anyone. Dockling turns it into a pixel pet that lives in your Mac dock, menu bar, or notch. It walks across your screen, naps when you're idle, and reacts when you click. Built-in Pomodoro with focus streaks, quick note taker, and a daily heatmap so it doubles as a tiny productivity sidekick. 25+ pre-made packs (cats, dogs, pandas, frogs, axolotls) or generate your own. $2.99 once. No subscription, no account, all local.

Hey Hunters 👋 I'm Sadi, the maker of Dockling. This started as a dumb side project. My dock was a row of grey rectangles and I wanted my dog there instead. One weekend later I had a pixel version of him walking across the dock, and I couldn't stop showing people. Dockling lets you upload a photo of any pet (or person) and turns it into a pixel pet that lives in your dock, menu bar, or notch. It walks, naps, reacts to clicks, and doubles as a Pomodoro timer with streaks and quick notes. So it's not just decoration, it actually earns the screen real estate. A few things I'm proud of: • 25+ packs you can also get (cats, dogs, pandas, frogs, axolotls…) • Custom pet generation from a photo. Try it free on the site before buying • $2.99 once. No subscription, no account, runs fully local • Built solo with love I'd love your feedback, especially on the custom pet generator. Drop a photo of your pet on dockling.space and tell me what the pixel version got right (or hilariously wrong). What pet would you put in your dock?
