We have a larger fenced yard and 2 young kids with lots of energy to play with your dogs outside and in. We’ve watched lots of friends dogs for them over the years and we’ve loved the experience. Our house is small enough so that we can keep an eye on dogs all the time and we’re very attentive to their needs. We follow any number of feeding schedules that need to be adhered to. We’re happy to take dogs on walks and so forth. In the past the dogs we’ve watched have always slept in the house either in our bed or in the family room. We don’t allow dogs on furniture, but if the do jump up a few times it’s not a big deal, we’re patient with dogs but still are strict with our rules. We don’t have dog toys, doggy beds or kennels.
