The Role of Pets in Dating
- Featuring pets in your dating profile boosts your appeal and attracts fellow animal lovers.
- Highlight your pet in a way that emphasizes your personality.
- Make your profile irresistible. Start your profile review now. Let our AI and Dating Coaches guide you.
We continue our series about what our data showed, after reviewing thousands of male profiles.
This week, we go into the pets subject. Many people have that cute cat, the crazy dog they love or many other pets.
Even Tinder advised to show our dog in their article about Tinder photos.
I love data, therefore I really loved this article.
However, it is biased a LOT.
The first thing to prove it, this research on 5000 persons, says completely different:
- Tinder says having a dog increases likes by 5%.
- 29% in the latter research.
Why so different? They are missing the correct variables to study. Having a dog can be something really awesomefor your profile of course. But you can also fall to appear try hard, clumsy or even weird.
What did we learn watching all those photos?

Don't post a pic of your dog alone
Want more visibility?
ROAST's AI Photoshoot generates your best photos for greater visibility.
Your pet is cute, but you are more interesting than it!
The biggest mistake we see in many profiles: a picture of your pet **alone.**This may be suited for Instagram (and i'm not even sure, given the care of some clichés). But not on a dating app!
We don't have many pictures to give a girl a desire to swipe us right.
Not many because Tinder limits it.
But mostly because girls won't spend 30sec on each profile!
I would spend maximum 5sec, and swipe 3-5 pictures before deciding what to do.
Why would you spend 1 (or sometimes up to 3-4) photo(s) on your pet alone?
Will the girl date your pet?
A side error is doing the same with potential valuablethings:
-
A nice car.
-
A beautiful villa.
-
A swimming pool.
-
A nice background during travel.
If we don't see you, it is 10x less interesting.

Want more visibility?
ROAST's AI Photoshoot generates your best photos for greater visibility.
Another common mistake we see, is doing a cheap photo of the pet, usually inside.
A photo in the living room can be nice, but like any other photo on Tinder, you can do way better on the background.
Think about that: Tinder is about standing out, compared to others.
Make the effort! It is super worth it.

Don't know how to take pics?
Struggling with capturing great pictures? We've got you covered. Let our AI generate the best photos for your dating success.
You want to be the main attraction of your picture.
Not your pet.
Therefore, many poses are very cheap.
Usually they are the ones when you go down to your pet. Basically when the pet is posing and you are trying to stand in the picture.
Animals are often very photogenic.
Same as the background: make the effort, make it stand in YOUR picture.
Pets are a great way to make you shine. But mostly when they are not blatantly used on a staged picture.
Try to get an action shot. A cool background. Good pose, both of you standing proud.
Have you ever wondered why Dating apps are working for your friends but not you?
It's hard to know what makes a dating profile attractive, and even harder to take the perfect pictures.
With our AI Photoshoot, you'll confidently showcase your best angles and amplify your dates!
The right way to carry your dog
Don't know how to take pics?
Struggling with capturing great pictures? We've got you covered. Let our AI generate the best photos for your dating success.
The special one.
We saw MANY people that have a trend to carry their pet.
It could be an OK pose. But usually it makes you feel uncomfortable. You will not be as relaxed as if your arms are free.
And that is not good as you want to be fully relaxed when posing.
Of course, you can still use your pet to make you shine. You two can find a way of doing a perfect shot as a duo.
However, this one may be more the exception than the norm!
