I work full time as a teacher on week days. I grew up in a family with a cat and dog. I now have one dog and 2 cats of my own, who are much loved by my daughter and myself. I'm home over weekends. My property is high fenced with locked gate and is located on a safe, quiet street. I can check in on pets daily (over shorter periods) - just as long as it is within a reasonable travel distance from my home....
