Hello! I currently work from home and am able to attend to puppies throughout the day and night. I tend to leave the backdoor open so the puppies can go in and out of the doggy door on the screened porch. The downstairs of my house is very dog friendly (vinyl floor throughout) but everyone ends up hanging out with me in the living room or office. I have two dogs that live here (Luna and Sunny) with me and my daughter. I have hosted up to 4 dogs at a time and while it seems chaotic, my daughter and I love it. The dogs usually end up sleeping on the floor in my bedroom but I also have a long hallway that I can block off and a dining room that I turn into a relaxing doggy area.
