Employee Appreciation Days
You value your employees and have been searching for the perfect way to show them you appreciate all of the hard work they do. Employees are the heart and soul of your business, and retaining good employees key to success. (LINK to In-Office pillar page) With burnout rising and job turnover at an all time high, it is important you find meaningful ways to show team members you see their talents and desire to keep them growing with your company. Let Puppy Love provide wonderful wellness activities to show your employees that you care about their health and wellbeing while you appreciate the immense work they do for your company.
At Puppy Love, we provide an easy, safe and fun space for employees to engage with rescue puppies. Pups play and hang out with humans to provide a comforting experience and support for those experiencing stress in their personal or work life. This leads to healthier employees who will associate that support with their workplace.
Puppies are also a social activity! Employees can bond with their coworkers while cuddling a pup and discovering the cute little things each pup does. Many people have memories of an important dog in their life, and a Puppy Love experience can help initiate conversations about those dogs, which leads to strengthening employee bonding and relationships.
Research shows that positive feedback from company executives causes employees to feel more appreciated than when they only receive compliments and acknowledgments from their managers. However, with the rising popularity of remote and hybrid options, it is sometimes difficult to get employees from multiple levels engaged in the same event at the same time. Puppies are a reason for people to come into work, and they provide a space for organic connections and compliments to occur.

Benefits Of
A Puppy Love Experience
Reduce Employee Absenteeism
Who doesnāt want to come to the office when there are puppies? Nothing makes the workplace more attractive than knowing there are adorable furry creatures to frolic with.
Increase Positive Work Relationships
For employees who have never met or who donāt know each other well ā or even those who do, puppies are an amazing conversation starter and bonding experience.
Increase Employee Attention
Daily work saturation can get overwhelming. A few minutes of Puppy Loveā¢ organically clears minds and boosts serotonin, leading to a positive attitude re-adjustment.
Improve Employee Productivity
When employees feel appreciated, all good things come ā including the desire to work and do well for the company.
Bring Smiles Throughout the Day
The photo opps and buzz factor around a Puppy Loveā¢ experience are unparalleled. Smiles will abound as photos are shared and the afterglow continues all through the day!

We all know the feeling of stress at work ā looming deadlines, performance reviews, etc. A few minutes playing with puppies makes all that melt away and allows employees to lower their anxiety levels.
Wellness Activities in Silicon Valley / Bay Area
By hosting wellness activities, you are demonstrating empathy and compassion toward all of your employees which validates that you see them as individuals and people who show up each day and give you their best.
Finally, a Puppy Love experience is not directly proportional to any specific industry or type of work. It is a meaningful way of fostering love and support for all of your employees at once. This event requires no additional staffing, and it’s easy to arrange for a manager working a busy schedule. Our staff takes care of the rest! Not everyone can have an employee solely responsible for employee appreciation, so hire our puppies instead! They’ll happily give puppy kisses and leave your employees with smiles for days.
Employees that feel unhappy and undervalued where they spend the majority of their time are more likely to quit — even without having another job lined up. To build company loyalty and longevity amongst employees, it’s important you focus on activities or gifts that make them feel appreciated. Providing a Puppy Love experience engages them with puppies which in turn reduces cortisol levels and allows for more employee bonding and connecting. By investing in an event that creates positive memories at work employees are more likely to associate good feelings about their employer and continue to be productive in jobs where they feel they’re appreciated.
