1) Some breeds of dog are less dependent on human, and thus require less attention. Do your research and find out the best breed that fits your lifestyle.
2) Dogs are very expensive: food, toys, vet fees, grooming fee, dog sitters, puppy training, beauty products, crate, etc. An average healthy dog would cost dogowner about $800 a year, excluding emergencies. Puppies cost even more.
However compared with the pleasure you get from owning a dog, all seems inexpensive.
