I have 3 cats and 2 dogs. Sleep with the cats nightly, clean their litterpans, etc etc. If you keep your home reasonably clean, and your dogs are not free-roaming (as in eating garbage, dead vermin, etc) you will be absolutely fine.
The only time you need to really AVOID pets is if you are extremely compromised, as you get with immunoablative chemo and the like. I had to keep the pets out of my living area after I had my reboot but I still pet them with my hand only and then washed up. I literally had zero immune system for 2 weeks and never had a problem. As soon as my counts were normalized I went back to all my "evil ways." LOL
Just use your noggin and you'll be fine!
