I lost my 7.5 year old Boxer to a brain aneurysm last week, there were definitely days when we were being lazy and didn't want to walk him, but hey, it's good to walk for yourself as well!

We were very fortunate with our dog in that he was never crated, he had full run of the house and *almost* never got into anything. We were very gradual in adjusting him to being alone and it worked great, however YMMV.
