Your profile picture

This is your business card in the search results. Choose a clear, friendly photo in which your face is clearly visible (without sunglasses) and you are smiling.

Choose a clear profile picture of yourself

Show only yourself as the main character: you are the one taking care of the pet. Other photos in your ad may include roommates or animals.

Appearance

Smile, make eye contact with the camera and dress appropriately. Selfies are OK, provided they are at eye level and not too cluttered in the background.

Avoid inappropriate photos

Fun drinks/party photos don't belong on your Petbnb profile. Go for images that exude professionalism and reliability.

Be yourself!

Sincere and spontaneous works best. A warm smile and a natural setting win out over too posed.

Quick post-processing may (brightness, contrast, straightening). Don't overdo it: keep it natural.

Photos of your home

Show where animals stay: clean, light and safe. Show resting area(s), feeding area and (if present) garden/fence. This gives owners immediate confidence.

Tidy and clean environment

Clear away visible cords/small objects and avoid cluttered backgrounds. This will draw attention to pet comfort and safety.

Provide a mix of images: clear portraits of yourself, you interacting with animals, plus overview of the lodge environment. Minimum 3 photos is required - more = better.

Pet photos

Show your experience and love for animals. Photos at eye level, relaxed moments and happy snouts convince the most.

Light

Natural light always wins. Photograph near a window or outside. Avoid flash (unnatural and sometimes exciting to animals).

Natural poses

Capture spontaneity: playing, cuddling, sniffing. That shows your dealings with different animals.

Portrait mode for depth

Use portrait mode on your smartphone for subtle background blur and focus on the subject.

Tips for photographing pets

  • Get to eye level: kneel or sit/lie down for an intimate perspective.
  • Use reward/toy: That's how you get that look right into the lens.
  • Shoot in burst: take several photos in quick succession.
  • Be patient: wait for the natural, relaxed moment.

A picture says more than a thousand words

With bright light, tidy settings and spontaneous interactions, you show that animals are in loving, caring hands with you. This is how you convince owners - even before you meet them.
