About this assignment
My ideal house sitter adores cats, is communicative, doesn't mind watering plants (roof garden and indoor) and washing dishes (no dishwasher), is respectful, and leaves things as clean as they found them.
What responsibilities are required of the house sitter
Taking care of our sweet cat, Freddy (whom we also call Buddy). He is such a loving gentleman. :) Also watering our roof garden daily (it's beautiful up there!) and the houseplants every couple of days, and taking down recycling and trash, as needed.
What are the good features of the property and location
Comfy, quiet, safe, convenient, beautiful roof view… Our place is a three minute walk to the express A train, which takes you to midtown Manhattan in 20 minutes. The neighborhood is safe, and has a very residential feel to it, while also having considerable choice in restaurants (Uptown Garrison, Le Cheile, Saggios, Tampopo Kitchen, Tampopo Ramen, and Kismat are favorites), parks (Ft Tryon is a must see) and even the Met Cloisters museum!
What does the house sitter need to consider before applying for this assignment
This is a very quiet building. My neighbors are very friendly and I know many of them after living here for over 15 years. My apartment is a great refuge after a long day wandering the city. It is best suited for one or two low-key people who are mindful of following co-op building rules, including quiet hours between 10pm and 8am. I think you will find your stay here very comfy and will fall in love with our special little Buddy!
Can I bring my own pets?
No, sorry.

Spent a great week at Julia and Ameena's apartment taking care of sweet cat Freddy, who could not have been easier to care for. Uptown apartment, very close to the express train so getting around was easy. Interesting neighborhood that I had not explored before with lots of ethnic restaurants. And Julia was so understanding and helpful when I ran into an issue with the keys. Very grateful for her help. Thanks!

Lovely cat & Incredible place
My stay at Julia’s home was simply amazing. Communication with Julia was very easy, she was helpful and generous. Freddy, the cat, (I already miss him) was the loveliest pet I’ve ever met. He loves to be pet, to sleep on your lap and to follow you everywhere you go ! The flat is also pretty nice, well located, close to the A train, and the rooftop view is just mesmerising ! It was nice to have a little garden while being in New York City. Thanks again for everything !
