I live on a farm where there is plenty of room to run and play. I can take pets out on a leash or let them run, if they are familiar with commands. I am okay with pets on furniture and sleeping on the bed, if needed. I do not have an inside kennel, so if that is needed you'll have to bring your own. I have a small dog of my own, but have also had and cared for larger dogs (as large as a Saint Bernard).
