Take Your Dog To Work Day

Take Your Pet To Work Week

June 16, 2021 by Jennifer Houghton Leave a Comment

No matter whether you are back in the office or still working from home, you can participate in Take Your Pet To Work Week June 21st through 25th.

Created in 1999 by Pet Sitters International (PSI) to highlight dog companionship and to encourage adoptions, Take Your Dog To Work Day has grown. What was once a single Friday event just for dogs has expanded to a weeklong event that includes cats.

Monday, June 21st, get out your hashtags and kitties and #takeyourcattoworkday. PSI will share their favorites photos from the submissions they receive. [Read more…] about Take Your Pet To Work Week

Celebrating Take Your Dog to Work Day

June 9, 2018 by Lynn Gricus Leave a Comment

Friday, June 21st is Take Your Dog to Work Day in the United States. Sixty-three percent of pet owners surveyed consider their pets to be a part of their family, so it’s no wonder why Americans are embracing this new trend! In addition to allowing service and therapy dogs at workplaces, companies such as Google, Amazon, and Etsy already allow employees to bring their companion dogs to work. Here are some guidelines to consider whether you are a pet-friendly employer or a dog-loving employee.

Make sure no one objects. Pets can be a distraction, however welcome. After all, who can resist petting that cute face and wagging tail? Be aware that coworkers may be allergic to dogs in general or to your dog’s particular breed. Also, be sensitive to cultural objections to certain animals present in the workplace.

PSI’s Take Your Dog to Work Day

June 21, 2017 by Gail Brasie Leave a Comment

Pets + Offices = Take Your Dog To Work Day.

Friday, June 23, is the 19th annual Pet Sitters International’s Take Your Dog To Work Day®. A growing number of workplaces are participating in this fun “holiday” and allowing their employees to bring their fluffy family members to work with them for the day. According to the PSI website the goals of Take Your Dog to Work Day are to raise awareness for homeless pets and to encourage those dogless folks to consider adopting a pup of their own.

Taking your dog to work with you for a day can be a delightful treat for both of you—you know he won’t miss you while you’re away and he’ll get a whole bunch of new experiences while at work with you. He may even make some new doggy and people friends too! And Take Your Dog to Work Day can be great fun for your coworkers; honestly, wouldn’t our jobs all be more fun if there were dogs around?
