Penthouse Pets: Pet of the Month & Pet of the Year

Last reviewed by a human: 2026-10-05

A Penthouse Pet is a woman the adult magazine names as its Pet of the Month, with one Pet of the Year chosen from each year’s twelve — these are the 46 documented on this registry, every placement sourced to Penthouse’s own pages.

Who are the Penthouse Pets?

Penthouse is the adult magazine that names one Pet of the Month every month and, once a year, one Pet of the Year. This page documents 46 creators on this registry with a Penthouse Pet title, drawn from the 118 Pets in Penthouse’s own online archive (one per month, January 2017 through October 2026). Each placement is sourced to Penthouse’s own pages and listed newest Pet of the Month first. Five Pet of the Year winners have pages here (Gina Valentina 2018, Gianna Dior 2019, Kenzie Anne 2021, Tahlia Paris 2023, Renee Olstead 2024), and so do all six finalists in the 2025 Pet of the Year playoff. This is our researched coverage of the Pets on this registry, not Penthouse’s full archive — a name missing here means we haven’t documented her yet, never that she wasn’t a Pet.

The documented roster · 46

This page lists the Penthouse Pets documented on this registry, not Penthouse’s full archive: Penthouse’s online Pets archive lists 118 Pets from January 2017 through October 2026, and 46 have a page here. A name missing here means we haven’t documented her yet. Months follow the heading on each Pet’s own Penthouse page, newest Pet of the Month first; Penthouse’s pages carry a few typos of their own, and where a page heading and the archive’s strict month-by-month order disagree we follow the archive. The 2023 finalist mentions come from AVN’s report of April 18, 2023, and three selections were also reported by trade press (AVN on May 2, 2022; XBIZ on May 2 and June 3, 2024). Pet of the Year labels are Penthouse’s own; the one-year offset is explained below. VerifiedHer is not affiliated with Penthouse (Penthouse World Media, LLC), AVN, or XBIZ.

Quick answers

What is a Penthouse Pet?

A Penthouse Pet is a woman Penthouse, the adult magazine, names as its Pet of the Month. Each Pet gets a profile page on penthouse.com headed “Penthouse Pet of the Month” with the month and year, and Penthouse’s online Pets archive lists 118 Pets, one for every month from January 2017 through October 2026. Once a year Penthouse also names one of its Pets the Pet of the Year.

How are Penthouse Pets chosen?

Penthouse names each month’s Pet itself; XBIZ and AVN coverage of the announcements quotes Penthouse’s own editors and executives on each choice. Pet of the Year is chosen from the twelve Pets of the previous year. Recent contests have used public voting — for the 2025 title, a vote from December 7 to December 21, 2025, then a playoff among the top six from December 28, 2025 to January 4, 2026 — while Penthouse’s own page for the 2021 title describes a team selection with no public vote.

Why is the 2024 Pet of the Year a Pet from 2023?

Penthouse labels a contest “Pet of the Year N” when it is chosen from the Pets of year N-1, so Renee Olstead, the January 2023 Pet of the Month, is Penthouse’s 2024 Pet of the Year; the same one-year offset holds for Tahlia Paris (February 2022, the 2023 title) and Gianna Dior (September 2018, the 2019 title). This page prints Penthouse’s own labels.

Who is the current Penthouse Pet of the Month?

As of our October 5, 2026 review, Penthouse’s own Pets archive lists madiiitay, printed in lowercase on Penthouse’s page, as the October 2026 Pet of the Month; she does not have a page here yet. The most recent Pet with a page on this list is Lulu Romanova, the September 2026 Pet of the Month, whose own page is still rated Unproven.

Who has won Penthouse Pet of the Year?

Penthouse’s own pages name these winners: Layla Sin (2015), Kenna James (2016), Jenna Sativa (2017, named in Penthouse’s own release), Gina Valentina (2018), Gianna Dior (2019), Lacy Lennon (2020), Kenzie Anne (2021), Amber Marie (2022), Tahlia Paris (2023) and Renee Olstead (2024). Five of them have pages here: Gina Valentina, Gianna Dior, Kenzie Anne, Tahlia Paris and Renee Olstead. For 2025, Penthouse’s own pages show six playoff finalists, all with pages here (Kassie Lee, Elly Clutch, Caryn Beaumont, Adrianna Eves, Autumn Ren and Krystal Harper), but we have not found a Penthouse-authored winner announcement; Kassie Lee has said in a post on her own account that she was named the 2025 winner, which we treat as her own account of it until Penthouse confirms.

Are the Penthouse Pets on this page real people?

Forty-five of the 46 pages on this list carry a Real verdict, each resting on the documented evidence set out on her own page. The remaining one, Lulu Romanova, is rated Unproven so far: Penthouse's page names her, and her own X bio claims the title, but Penthouse prints no handle that ties the two together. A Pet title is a documented fact about a name in Penthouse's archive, not a verdict by itself, which is why every name links through to the full evidence page.

Why do some names here differ from the name Penthouse printed?

Penthouse prints a few names differently from the names on their pages here: it printed Violet Summers for April 2020 (Penthouse’s own June 2025 interview says she now works as Violet Brandani), Gracewearslace for Gracie Dzeja, MSPUIYI for Ms. Puiyi and LaSirena69 for La Sirena 69. Penthouse’s December 2022 Pet named Amber Rose is a different person from the media personality Amber Rose, who has her own page here and is not on this list.

Is Penthouse Pet of the Year the same as an AVN or XBIZ award?

No. Pet of the Year is Penthouse’s own title, not an AVN or XBIZ award. AVN and XBIZ have reported on Penthouse’s Pet announcements, and Penthouse planned the 2025 reveal for AVN’s Adult Entertainment Expo in Las Vegas in January 2026.
