Pets are valuable members of our families. They add a different dimension of curiosity, development and growth but most of all, they add a whole lot of love.
Why not share the bond you have with your pet, regardless of what species they are, and go beyond a family portrait that’ll sit on your desk or windowsill? Models Direct is thinking of images on a website or even in an Instagram reel! The possibilities are endless as to how you and your potential pet model could create forever memories, but not in the conventional way.
More out-of-the-box ideas include:
Photoshoots for catalogue modelling
Live on-the-ground promotional work
TV shoots and/or film work for commercial modelling
Who would want that, anyway? Our UK-based modelling agency is all about bringing our clients and pet models closer together, which could include their owners and the family unit they belong to – yes, that’s you!
Models Direct offers diverse opportunities for our pet models and boy, have we got a thrilling lineup for you to check out right here. See what our star pets (that’s what we officially call our cute bunch of animals in this division) have been up to with our agency:
Park Holidays selected The Coombs family and their little pooch to star in their company’s promotional photoshoot.
“Myself, my partner, my two sons; Horatio, aged 5 and Lennox, aged 3, my Mum, and her little Westie dog, experienced being photographed at Pevesney Bay Holiday Park! I was nervous before the day because sometimes my boys can be boisterous, crazy and/or shy. Thankfully, they were very well-behaved. This was due to the camera crew being patient, kind and fun.
It was a wonderful day. The camera crew were very friendly and welcoming. They captured us as a family playing on the beach, walking from the beach, dining on the veranda and playing in the park. My young boys thought they were on holiday, they didn’t feel intimidated by the cameras. My youngest became tired and hungry during the last shoot of the day, so missed out on the swimming pool. But, my eldest stayed with Daddy and created some great pictures of being thrown high in the air and landing underwater!

We were spoiled with food and drink choices at the clubhouse restaurant and the weather was sunny with a cool breeze. We all left with tanned, red faces! At the top of our day, our boys were able to stay on-site to attend the disco. Horatio won the disco dance competition! If our boys are entertained and happy, then it makes us parents thoroughly ecstatic! I really hope we get to see some of the finished shots! Very grateful for this wonderful opportunity from Models Direct. Thank you very much x”
Gorgeous Labrador Bo with Nickie (FGZZ-7799) starred in Pet Lab Co campaign. Here’s what they had to say about the day:
“An amazing day, thank you Models Direct and especially Charlie who reassured me and was always easy to get hold of for any questions. A fantastic day for myself and my lovely lab who enjoyed all the fuss and attention. The assignment was full of fun and lovely people who made us both feel so relaxed. One of my best days out this year! Nickie”
Coco & Eve hired our sweet bunny Elliott (XDWD-3477) for their campaign work. We got a lovely review from their owner:

“This was our first photo shoot for our bunny. It was amazing! Models Direct are a wonderful company to work for. Staff are very helpful, giving great advice and always take the time to listen as well.”
So whether you have a bunny, kitty or hedgehog – clients will consider using them for cuteness overload and instant mood boosters for their campaigns. Consider applying them to be a star pet model with Models Direct!
