[Note: I am taking a break from in-home care at this time so as not to stress out my senior gal] My dogs mostly like to keep to themselves, so do best sharing space with dogs who don't mind the company but don't need furry playmates. I never let dogs off leash unless explicitly given permission by the owner, and I don't have a yard but live in a safe and walkable neighborhood and can take them out frequently if staying with me. At your home, I will always respect any house rules you have. On walks, I'm careful to pay attention to my surroundings and I am comfortable handling dogs who are reactive to other dogs and animals.
