As of now, our Italian Greyhound is mostly blind and hard of hearing. However, she loves to walk at least a mile a day, by my side, eats 3 meals a day of cut chicken and wet dog food. She can have treats and gets a bone when we're not home. She has 2 heating pads, on low all the time, and can easily navigate around the condo and into her favorite dog bed and chair. We are careful to be sure she can get down onto the hardwood floor safely. She often barks when she smells the chicken or to ask for help in getting down, if she's hesitant. She's affectionate once familiar with you, and responds well to a familiar voice and smell. She spends a lot of time sleeping, but has periods of puppy behavior rubbing on her textured chair and trying to bight the material. She prefers to ignore other dogs and children. very friendly with gentle adults, and is often confused for a puppy, due to her petite size. She sleeps with us at night. She uses pee pads very well indoors, and will often go on a grass patch in front of our door …

She prefers to ignore other dogs and children. very friendly with gentle adults, and is often confused for a puppy, due to her petite size. She sleeps with us at night. She uses pee pads very well indoors, and will often go on a grass patch in front of our door and on the balcony. She's an absolute joy.
She needs company most of the time, and we prefer not to leave her for more than 3 hours. This works well with someone who works remotely from home.
We also have a lovely easy going 4 ear old cat that is self sufficient and enjoys affection and caresses.

The area of Weehawken is peaceful with a beautiful waterfront promenade, excellent for walking, jogging, biking, scootering and rollerblading. Across the street there is a Whole Foods grocery store, as well as several restaurants, a Sheraton with water view, a small CVS pharmacy, a convenience store, a deli and coffee kiosk. We have Ruth Chris Steakhouse, Blu on the Hudson (great place), and a seafood restaurant ,the Charthouse, on the water.
One mile to the south along the boardwalk promenade is the town of Hoboken. It is full of restaurants, shops, hair salons, a vetinarian, all you might need, and it is full of charm.
To the north, is Port Imperial with more restaurants, upscale shopping, and a beautiful continuous boardwalk. There are several parks, tennis, ping-pong, soccer, softball, kickball and more. Our home is warm, inviting and comfortable. We love to sit on the balcony on a nice day with coffee or wine. Often you can see a beautiful sunrise and sunset. We are organized, tidy and clean. The fridge and pantry are easily used as well as ease of cooking.

Tourism and Leisure

There are festivals in the Spring and Summer, as well as farmers' markets. You can sail, kayak, paddle board, jet ski and take any number of cruises along the Hudson. A car is not necessary for transportation, as there is a ferry every 20 minutes to and from midtown Manhattan, across the river, as well as several busses to central Manhattan. The ferry dock is next to our building and the bus is across the street. We also have many rolling canvas bags to carry groceries if shopping and walking, and several ways to carry Darcy-our Italian Greyhound, if she becomes tired. These include a doggie stroller, doggie backpack, doggie sling, and a padded shoulder bag. Most restaurants allow dogs on the patio in the Spring and Summer. Manhattan has the famous Riverside Drive which runs the length of Manhattan on lanes for bikes, runners, walkers, etc, next to the river. Central Park is always a favorite destination as are Broadway-Times Square and museums. Live entertainment is available everywhere. "Summer on the Hudson" is an annual series of dance lesson/parties on the pier as well as yoga, birthday parties, etc. "Time Out NY" is a weekly publication with all …

Kim and Rachid were delightful. As seasoned travelers and pet-sitters, they settled in rapidly and established rapport with my pets. They sent me lovely pictures of my pets and shared their adventures in the city. They left a very tidy apartment - they even left fresh flowers!

Nous sommes ravis d'avoir confié notre chat et notre appartement à Kim et Rachid, que nous aurions beaucoup aimé rencontrer ! Ils donnent fréquemment des nouvelles et se sont parfaitement occupés de Mimi qui a bien été chouchouté pendant leur séjour. Nous les accueillerons avec grand plaisir si l'occasion se présente ! Merci :)
