A volunteer-based project providing free veterinary care for the

VET SOS began offering services to homeless people and their pets in 2001, using a $1000 start-up grant. Since then, all medical supplies and operating expenses are donated. VET SOS would like to expand its services but needs your help in order to do that.

Rogers photoVET SOS volunteer photographer Mark Rogers has been voted the #1 San Francisco Bay Area Pet Photographer for 2008 on the SF Chronicle/SFGate.com BayList.

About Mark

Mark Rogers is a professional pet photographer living in San Francisco. He specializes in candid, often humorous, photographs of dogs, cats, bunnies and pretty much any other sort of animal considered a pet. He moved to the Bay Area in the late ’90s from the east coast when his job brought him, his wife and then six-year old German Shepherd out west. A lifelong shutterbug and animal lover Mark started the path toward his pet photography career when he began volunteering for Give a Dog a Bone, an environmental enrichment program for protective custody dogs at the San Francisco Animal Shelter.

When his portraits of those dogs started receiving notice he began taking on private clients as a side job but soon realized he’d found what he truly loved to do and turned it into a full time gig several years ago Mark is now a board member for Give a Dog a Bone and he also volunteers his time and photography for other animal welfare groups such as VetSOS and the San Francisco SPCA. His work has appeared in the award-winning San Francisco SPCA magazine, Our Animals, and has been published in a number of books. His most recent photos can always be seen on his blog, Smile Like a Dog, which he contributes to on a regular basis. (courtesy of SFGate/BayList)
