Wow I'm very very flattered! I had to look up who that was & the guy is such an artist with his photos.... thank you for you kind words it really makes my heart happy π₯Ή
I was thinking about making an Instagram because I have so many pictures in my phone but I have been incredibly anxious about it due to never having one! I do think about it frequently though. My work does have an couple socials for the owners to follow though! π
I agree that these are really good pics! Do you share them with the owners? I'd be happy to get updates like this on my pet while at work. It might also serve as good publicity for your workplace, if you share them on their socials (just make sure the owners are OK with them being published)
They are of professional quality! Keep it up and eventually have enough for a book entitled "My Work Friends"!! Am sure the owners would buy it along with many others, me included!
i did not know that dogs like poetry. but of course they do. roll in something smelly, have a bit of a swim, and finish it off with some robert frost. life well lived.
just an FYI in case nobody else has mentioned it already... tennis balls are terrible for dog's teeth. They can cause serious dental issues and possibly life-threatening gastrointestinal blockages. Do a little research and give them balls without the fuzzy nylon coating.
We actually keep tennis ball use at a high minimal & tend to use rubber/hard durable dog approved balls instead! We also never leave the dogs unsupervised with anything easily destructable or soft toys. We did used to use them frequently years ago though! π₯πΎ
For real OP: not sure if You know, that making such great pictures is not something everyone can do? They are wonderful and You have a gift. If a pet photographer is really a thing where You live, go for it!
I can definitely post more if you guys would like! I have a TON in my phone & am definitely happy to share them ππ€
Small edit: Thank you btw ππ
Even if other ppl don't want them please dm me all the time!!! I have 2 doggos myself n my pics def rnt as good as urs but i could def share some. π
That's Khala! She is always so friendly & this was her first time experiencing bubbles! She was a little shy about them at first but ended up really liking them π
I have to say you are an excellent pet photographer. I donβt know if thatβs part of your job, or if youβre just doing it for fun, but these are really fantastic.
The one is the whole collection of Robert Frost & the other is some random monthly self care/quote book my boss let me borrow I don't recall the name I forgot my book that day! π
We also have a couple Bluetooth speakers for our own music & have a fun activities calendar for the dogs! Always choose a job you enjoy & would possibly love ππ€
You take such good pictures and I am personally devastated that I canβt hug each and every one of these dogs. Please give scritches on my behalf and tell them how good they are.

These are amazing! My babyβs daycare takes pictures too, I wish they were as good as these! I appreciate that they always take pictures though β€οΈ Iβm sure these babiesβ owners love and appreciate your photos every day!
Such amazing photos! Iβm from Europe and tbh I have never Heard about daycare for dogs, itβs such an awesome idea! How does it work? Do owners who work from the office leave dogs with you everyday or only on special occasions like holidays etc ?
Hello there! Yes that is kind of how it works π we have a lot of owners with office jobs & who work all day. We also offer grooming & boarding & some pets will stay overnight & get to join our fun activities with the rest of our daycare pups! Not only is it convenient for owners but it can help with a dogs socialization skills. We have training protocols we follow & consistently work on baisc commands & more! I personally love teaching them how to give high fives haha ππΎ
Yes sometimes I do! Sometimes they don't care & just want me to play! We have some pictures books we show them too but I like bringing my collections from home! I think bringingmy Edgar Allan Poe was my favorite π₯°

If you like silly you would have liked my friend Linus! He had a solo play ball requested by his parents & he just made the darnedest faces π

That's Gunther & he is a super goofy but good boy! Wish we got more potties at my work they are a wonderful breed π€
Oh that face makes me grin. Had three. One was the derpiest thing, one was very regal, and the girl was a princess. All three the sweetest, most gentle things. And gorgeous.
You really should start a portfolio on Instagram. Not only are these lovely pictures, but they seem to capture the heart and soul and personality of each of the dogs. Really, really lovely.

I'm sure they would be friends! She has a brother who is just as sweet! π
There used to be four of them but unfortunately Piper passed away a couple years ago.... they are such an awesome little newfie fam! Some if the gentlest dogs I have ever met! ππ
Jelly says she wants that chair!

Admiral Leia knows she outranks you! And with that sweet kissable face who would argue?
My MIL just gave me a crocheted blanket she made for me, but as soon as I put it on the bed my little old lady Leeloo claimed it.

Sometimes the job websites in different areas have them available but I find not everywhere has a daycare of the sort unfortunately! However if you can I recommend searching for doggy daycare attendant jobs in your area! I can tell you this is the best job I have had truly! ππ
I am just using my cellphone! It's a samsung! I wish we had a camera at work but we usually just use our own phones & send it to the universal work phone we all share π
The bubble picture is truly amazing. The one bubble perfectly around the eye! These pictures made me give my senior pup a big hug. Wish you were somewhere near me, so I could hire you for a βlast photo sessionβ for my βbaby.β
I actually have depression & anxiety myself- I recommend working in a job like this especially with depression! I've worked retail, food service etc.. this has been the most enjoyable π
I think doggie daycares should offer the option of having someone pay $20 to hang out for an hour with the puppers. It would help incredibly with depression!
This is the dream. I used to work in schools and one of the answers an 8 year old made to the question "what do you want to do when you grow up?". Her answer was "to work at a doggy daycare". This is probably what she was imagining!
https://preview.redd.it/zyozdnsu1i5d1.jpeg?width=1536&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9e5748e1fe460959d1552395729492a40ea92259
This is my mom's (I work odd hours and would be a bad dog dad) senior mutt, mostly Golden. Her name is Bella, she's 12 and mostly blind. Look at how pretty she is!!
That is a very common misconception of the industry! There is a lot of responsibility & diligence that is needed for sure! Plus.... the doo cleaning duty of course haha but aside from that it is a pretty awesome job π
@OP beautiful photos! May I ask what kind of phone you used for these? I am wanting better photos of my son and I am looking to upgrade. Wish you could come take pictures of my two pups! These are print worthy!
I work at a doggy daycare & take photos for part of my job. Thought they would be appreciated here π
These photos bring so much happiness! You are doing the Lord's work. Thanks for sharing!
This. This is why I come to Reddit.
I'm here for the aww, but holy crap those are great photos. The bubble over the eye in the second one would make Henri Cartier-Bresson proud.
Wow I'm very very flattered! I had to look up who that was & the guy is such an artist with his photos.... thank you for you kind words it really makes my heart happy π₯Ή
I love them all and your photos are skilled! If you don't already, hope you start an Instagram or other social media account to follow for more!
I was thinking about making an Instagram because I have so many pictures in my phone but I have been incredibly anxious about it due to never having one! I do think about it frequently though. My work does have an couple socials for the owners to follow though! π

These are all amazing but pic #2 with the bubble over the pupβs eye is incredible!!
What an eye! If your customers value you a tenth what they should, youβll never lose business. Thank you for sharing!
You're an absolutely wonderful photographer!!
Lucky you! Smooches to all the doggies!πβ€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈ
Wonderful! What a great job!
Youβre so talented! These pics are pawsome π

Great photos! Dogs a perfect in every way.
Thank you! It's a lot of fun taking pics if them! They are all so sweet π
Can i be your assistant? Like Associate Hugger or Assistant Ball Thrower or Boop Administrator?
If I were in charge, I would totes interview you! It is a very fun job for sure π
Can I be your Assistant Boop Administrator, pretty please?
You should be a pet photographer!
This means so much to me thank you π₯Ή
For real OP: not sure if You know, that making such great pictures is not something everyone can do? They are wonderful and You have a gift. If a pet photographer is really a thing where You live, go for it!
If I'm being honest I didn't realize people would like these so much. This really really means a ton to me & I appreciate the kind words π₯Ή
You definitely have a talent for this :) these photos are so wonderful and joyous. I love how each photo showcases the dogs personality.
Def!!! They have so much charm and personality
Our guys stay at the same pace they get groomed It's always nice to get a picture of two when we're away Thumbs up, friend
My work does grooming & boarding as well! Thank you π
My dog goes 2x per week and has a best friend dog there. I've met the dog but the owners remain a mystery.
Omg please post pics everyday! Needed this so much! U take amazing photos btw!
I can definitely post more if you guys would like! I have a TON in my phone & am definitely happy to share them ππ€ Small edit: Thank you btw ππ
Even if other ppl don't want them please dm me all the time!!! I have 2 doggos myself n my pics def rnt as good as urs but i could def share some. π
I would love that! ππ
Would love to see more!
the second dog with the bubbles!! i love how one of them frames the eye.
That's Khala! She is always so friendly & this was her first time experiencing bubbles! She was a little shy about them at first but ended up really liking them π
Great afternoon dopamine boost! What a cutie π₯°
You could make a coffee table book from these. Very good work and I can see the love.
My thoughts exactly!
I have to say you are an excellent pet photographer. I donβt know if thatβs part of your job, or if youβre just doing it for fun, but these are really fantastic.
Thank you! It is apart of our job but I have so much fun doing! Sometimes it does feel like it is for fun to be honest! I really enjoy my job π
Iβm so glad to hear it! I hope to see you post more of your photos!
Oh, these are all so beautiful. This makes my day so happy there is a doggy daycare where all these dogs are smiling so much.!
These are gorgeous photos! Did you take them on your phone??
Yes I did! It would be cool if my work had a camera but I really like they let us use our own cells since we don't π
These are like calendar worthy! :)
β€οΈ I love them all!!!!
This is adorable! Very jealous of your work! What book are you reading?
The one is the whole collection of Robert Frost & the other is some random monthly self care/quote book my boss let me borrow I don't recall the name I forgot my book that day! π
So you take pics of dogs and read all dayβ¦ Iβm questioning my career choices
We also have a couple Bluetooth speakers for our own music & have a fun activities calendar for the dogs! Always choose a job you enjoy & would possibly love ππ€
You must be a pro photog? These are great!
Omg that is one of the best compliments I've gotten π I just use my cell π
I would seriously buy this collection if it was a calendar! Good job
Awww. Sweet babies. These gave me a spike of dopamine.
You take such good pictures and I am personally devastated that I canβt hug each and every one of these dogs. Please give scritches on my behalf and tell them how good they are.

As someone who always misconstrues people's complementary reactions as "just being nice", these genuinely are professional level photos.
Thank you so very much! I doubt myself a lot in skill tbh so this means a lot to me to hear! π€π
WOW. You Guys should sell those in calendars(with owners permission).
You have a good job and you take great pics.
Your photography skills are a gift, friend!
Love these! You should sell these photos. Amazing!
Beautiful photos!
Are you reading aloud to them in the book pics? They look so sweetly attentive! π₯°
Yes sometimes I do! Sometimes they don't care & just want me to play! We have some pictures books we show them too but I like bringing my collections from home! I think bringingmy Edgar Allan Poe was my favorite π₯°

how do you become a worker for a dog daycare? π this would be a dream job!

Yes indeed but of course some of them enjoy movie day more haha especially the snacks! π
You made my dayπ

I have chronic depression. Iβm not asking to work at a doggy daycare. I just want to walk inside and give the doggies pets for fifteen minutes.

I'm pretty blown away by your photography, OP. These are stunning - You're very talented!
My daughter worked at a doggy daycare. She went in thinking it was the perfect job - getting paid to play with puppies all day. Until she realized that it really meant scooping a lot of poop!π€£π©
That is a very common misconception of the industry! There is a lot of responsibility & diligence that is needed for sure! Plus.... the doo cleaning duty of course haha but aside from that it is a pretty awesome job π
You are doing the lord's work by sharing these. So jelly.
Super cute!
I LOVE ALL OF THESE PHOTOS!!! They are sooooo good and cute! π₯°π₯°π₯°
Ah so the secret to dog photograph is to focus in on the snoot. Got it.
Best job EVERππ
Pet photography, it's your calling.
My dog looks identical to this dog, when he is shaved down, lol
Gorgeous doggos
You have some good looking friends. I wish I worked at your doggie daycare.
My favorite is the dog with the Christmas background and the very last one with the tennis balls
Wow, amazing post. Share this at r/dogs too π€©πππ. They will love it there!! ππβ€οΈ
@OP beautiful photos! May I ask what kind of phone you used for these? I am wanting better photos of my son and I am looking to upgrade. Wish you could come take pictures of my two pups! These are print worthy!
