We live in the large ground floor apartment of a multi-floor home. Plenty of space for zoomies. There's a small set of stairs down to the large but unfenced back yard. We have a tether back there so your dog can chill with us and have a bit of freedom (though we would never leave them unattended). When your pet is with us, your rules are our rules. If you allow your pups on the furniture or bed, so do we. If you don't, then we don't. We'll do our utmost to follow any training protocols so that your pet doesn't come home with any bad habits or setbacks in their training. We do have a general rule that we never take dogs off-leash. We make an exception for fully enclosed spaces and dog parks, but only with your permission and once we've built trust and a relationship with your dog. Because we have neighbours above and below, we can't take dogs who have seperation anxiety or bark frequently. Regular everyday barking is fine (dogs are dogs and we know the mailman is the sum of all evil), but we might not be the best fit if your dog barks consistently. If your dog does have separation anxiety and can't be left alone we may be able to discuss ways to accomodate for it, or commit to constant care at an increased rate.
