Every door in my house looks like this due to past owner pets and a bit of my own cats helping the damage along. It's been a project on the list for years and now i'm finally getting to it.

I, of course, started with looking at new doors. But my doors are a non-standard size as far as I can tell (29.75in x 79.25in) so I think I would have to get the cut custom to fit?

I then looked into things like peel and stick wallpaper and the like but I don't know if that will look good, or lay properly flat since it's so damaged and, of course, my cats just need one swipe to damage it yet again.

Then I looked into the wood filler, which I didn't know was a thing until I saw a comment on a door repair video. But I'm not sure if that will work here?

So that's all that I've researched but I'm unsure as to what the best approach is, any help would be appreciated. I would really like to make as little waste and spend as little money as possible, while still have staying power to the repair. How would you go about it? Any tips/tricks?

Thanks for the help!
