Freelancing is wonderful, it really is. You work on the jobs you want to work on, get paid the rate you want to be paid and work the hours you want to work.
However, there is one great big downside that nearly all freelancers mention when asked: it’s lonely.
It’s why, if you go into any given coffee shop during the average working day you’ll see freelancers tapping away on their laptops, just to be around other people. Of course, there are other ways to ease solitude without spending £10 a day on flat whites and toasties.
The most popular option? Get a pet.
Having a pet in the workplace is nothing new. In fact, many traditional workplaces now allow employees to bring in their furry friends. Google, Amazon and Nestlé all welcome pets, with Nestlé even having designated dog-friendly meeting rooms and a pet-friendly garden called Central Bark.
So, it’s no surprise that the self-employed, with their increased flexibility and work-from-home ethos would want pets in their workplace too.
It’s up to you to decide if a pet is the right freelance companion for you and it’s never a decision to be taken lightly – always ensure you can properly look after your pet before you commit.
