We all know pets make the workplace a happier and more productive place. A new survey has found that 65 percent of American pet parents believe that having pets in the workplace would benefit company culture. That same survey revealed that not only are pets beneficial to morale, but may help with recruitment and employee retention. While not every company has caught up to this idea, more and more offices are becoming pet-friendly in an effort to increase workplace morale and diffuse stress. Once again, Wellness® Natural Pet Food has put together a list of the most pet-friendly offices that go above and beyond to make their employees' furry friends feel comfortable and are setting the bar for what a pet-friendly office can be. So if you want to bring your pet to work, consider applying to one of these companies.
