Could you build this?
Partial The Chrome extension shell, cursor following and reminders are buildable, but turning a photo into a realistic animated sprite needs image-to-animation models and a solid art pipeline.
What it would actually take: A real version requires a segmentation model to isolate the pet, plus a generative or rigging pipeline to produce sprite frames for walking, napping and idle states. Animation quality depends on ML and art expertise. Packaging it as a Chrome extension is the easy part.
