I have an 8 year old Shiba Inu that enjoys having an extra friend around the apartment. I do work full-time but am home a minimum of every 8 hours. There are lots of nice spots to walk around my apartment, so your dog will get as much (or as little) exercise as you'd like. I can also communicate as much or as little as you require during your dog's stay. Especially on the weekends, my dog and I enjoy being outside. My apartment building is dog friendly, and there are lots of other playmate around. I'm fine with a dog that doesn't need to be crated, but can accommodate whatever you prefer. Your dog is free to roam at my place if you'd like.
