Sean McCarren has been a UPS driver for 17 years now. According to him, one of the best parts of his job is meeting dogs along his route each day.

"I wish we could just hang out with the families and their dogs all day, but it's just not feasible," McCarren told Buzzfeed News.

He and other UPS drivers often will stop on their work breaks to play with the pups who greet them at their trucks.

Five years ago he created a Facebook group called UPS Dogs so that other UPS drivers could post the pictures of the pooches they meet along their routes.

Here's the first UPS dog selfie he took on one of his routes.

Now that other UPS drivers across the country send him their own photos to post on the page, the group has grown to over 200,000 followers.

The dogs come in all sizes, both big ...

… and small.

Just look at all these good boys and girls.

But not all animal fans of UPS drivers are dogs. Cats and a few goats have made their way on to the UPS Dogs page, too.

While the Facebook page is not affiliated officially with UPS, the company fully supports the good-hearted message of the group.

"Yes, we are aware of that site," a spokesperson told BuzzFeed News. "It's a good example of the relationships our employees build with their customers, two- or four-legged!"

I would be lying if I said I wasn't thinking about quitting my job to become a UPS driver so I could make friends with these dogs every day.

So, who's with me?
