The doctors cautioned me about being around pets. In their opinion, it would be best not to have pets around. Our BMT coordinator knew that for most people that is not an option. I stayed with my in-laws who have 2 small cockapoos. As long as they were jumping on me and licking me and they were up to date on their shots and got bathed regularly, they were fine to be around. I would not let your pet sleep in the bed with you or sleep in the bed when you are not around.
