Oil painting safe for pets? and some basic questions

Hello! I planned on starting oil painting, but I live in 2 room apartment: one bedroom and one living room. I also live with my free-roam bunny. Is there any way to do oil painting in a way that is safe for her? From what I understand you usually need a medium (oil of some sort, for example, linseed oil) and something to clean the brushes (usually turpentine). Is there any way to make it work so that I will not have even a chance to cause her any harm? The trick is, I have one more room one level above, but it can function as a storage space at best, where the painting could dry.
And of course, any tips, along the lines of “what I wish I knew before I started oil painting” are always welcome! usually the most basic stuff during the preparation phase, or when you try to store your paintings are very important, especially when you are a beginner like me and probably will make tons of mistakes that could easily have been avoided with some guidance!
