You could use a product called PC Anywhere.

Brandon, how will that work if the IP of the computer he is trying to connect to, constantly changes?

Something like this perhaps?

My home PC uses a dynamic ip, but it doesn't change that much. Maybe onces every year. So when it does I just write down the new IP address. Other wise it looks like you can set it up for dynamic ip's.

From the website:

With a Dynamic IP address, usually only the last octet (last 3 digits) of the number ever changes. pcAnywhere can browse through a range of IP addresses. Using the steps outlined below, you can have pcAnywhere browse through a range of IP addresses and then select the correct computer to connect to or, make use of a Domain Naming Service.

I don't know how big your office is so this may not be an option.

What I do is logon to a Citrix server and access the Remote Desktop via the Citrix Server. As long as you leave your work pc on and loged in it works great.
