Luckily for employees working from home, there are plenty of other perks, too.

SelfMade is a New York City-based marketing agency, working to support companies to build amazing brands and improve their marketing efficiencies.

The Farmer’s Dog

Farmer’s Dog is a subscription-based dog food company that crafts fresh food customized for each dog’s nutritional needs and ships it straight to your doorstep.

The company encourages fostering, opening up their dog-friendly space to fostered dogs who are eligible for their generous dog food discounts.

“Dogs are as much a part of our team as the humans,” Eric at The Farmer’s Dog tells us. “They have free reign of the office, are there with us for every celebration/milestone/outing, and interrupt almost every meeting by pawing at the door to be let in/out, but we wouldn’t have it any other way.” The dogs pull their weight, too, serving as members of their canine focus group to pilot new recipes, products, and cool experiences.

  • Time off for new pet parents
  • Pet bereavement leave
  • Heavily discounted dog foods
  • Group dog walks
