Ill bite.
urlpatterns = [
path("pet/<slug:slug>/", views.PetDetailView.as_view(), name =
"pet_profile"),
path("owner/<slug:slug>/", views.PetOwnerDetailView.as_view(), name =
"owner_profile"),
path("pet/photoupload/", views.PetPhotoUploadView.as_view(), name =
"photo_upload"),
]
You if you are going to url /pet/photoupload/ that is going to call the
first one and process "photoupload" as the slug.
Move the photoupload above the the wildcard <slug> entry.
