Moving from the US to Asia. Need help!

Hi, I have been working as a Design Verification Engineer at Apple in California for the past six years, and I am in a situation where I need to make a difficult decision and move somewhere closer to India by the end of this year. I have an approved I-140, so I can return to the U.S. in the future if needed.

I am married and do not have children. The main reason for moving closer to India is my parents' age. I don't want to move to India itself because I have a five-year-old dog who is timid and gets scared even around large or loud dogs at the dog park.

I am considering Singapore or another nearby country with an easy visa process for both us and our parents. A travel time of less than 10 hours to India is also a requirement, as we plan to travel there frequently.

My team at Apple is willing to transfer me to Tokyo, but I would continue working with the same team, which means I would have to work across different time zones.

I am looking for recommendations from people in the same industry. Which dog-friendly country would you choose in my situation as a DV Engineer?
