Small dog lover here! My boyfriend and I have had our little Yorkie, Zoey, since 2012. She is only 4.5lbs and she suffers from anxiety so we have experience with that. I'm a NICU nurse and I am currently in between jobs so I have plenty of time to spend with your dog. We do let our dog sleep on our bed so if that's what you prefer, we can accommodate that. Our dog is allowed on our couch while we watch TV but again I will do whatever you prefer. Also, we do use a crate for when we leave the home for short periods of time, so we do ask that you bring one so that your dog feels safe as well! We have a nice fenced in yard to play in.
