I'm single and work - (at an office and also at home).

I had two dogs - two cats - and two birds. And - really "my plate was full."
I especially felt that one of my cats didn't get enough attention from me.

I am very fortunate because my neighbors on both sides love all my pets and give them treats and play with them also. In fact, they almost adopted the one cat I mentioned above. It spent a lot of time at their houses being petted and taking naps.

So - I would have to say - that there is a limit to the number I can have and spend a lot of individual time with.

Unfortunately, I lost both my cats last year - and, really miss them a lot.

So - now, I have two birds (no trouble at all) - and two dogs - which both get a lot of attention.

I think if you have more people in your family - you can have more pets.
