Consider incorporating pet-friendly exercises like stretches or short walks into your routine. Remember, a happy and engaged pet is less likely to be disruptive.
Working from home with a pet can be a rewarding experience, requiring some adjustments and creative solutions. By implementing these tips and fostering a positive work-pet environment, you can achieve a harmonious balance for both you and your furry companion.
