Modern Studio in Historic Downtown Jersey City-minutes from Manhattan
Introduction
I am a retired teacher who loves to travel and spend time with my family. I moved to Jersey City from Texas almost a year ago and love how walkable it is here. My two grown daughters live in Manhattan and Jersey City. They will be available to help troubleshoot if any problems arise while you are here. I have two small dogs and a cat. My pets mean the world to me and I am happy that they can stay at home where they are most comfortable! One of my dogs is a recently adopted rescue, and while she is now fully house-trained and leash trained she will need a little extra patience. *I WOULD PREFER SITTERS TO BE FULLY VACCINATED FOR COVID.
Show more...Home & location
I live in a studio apartment in Jersey City. I have a Murphy bed which helps make the most out of the space. There is a fully functioning kitchen and even a desk area if you need to work from home. A washer and dryer are also in my unit. My apartment is in an excellent location! I walk everywhere! There are several coffee shops and places to eat minutes from the apartment. The PATH station is a short walk away at Newark and Grove. Take it to the World Trade Center to see the 911 Memorial as well as explore the Financial District of Manhattan. From the WTC walk to Fulton Station and you can catch a subway to anywhere in NYC. You can also walk to the ferry, in the Paulus Hook neighborhood. It is only $7 to ride over the Manhattan. The Newark Avenue Pedestrian Plaza is an easy 11 minute walk and has lots of dining and shopping opportunities.

*Walk Betsy and Peaches at least 3 times per day. I walk them in the morning when we wake up. I usually take her again around 1 or 2:00, then an evening walk before bedtime. The times can be adjusted and you can add more walks if you want. They love walking in the city! If you are going out for the day to explore the city, just put a pad down for them in the bathroom. *Feed dog and cat twice per day *Give fresh water once per day *Clean litter box daily *Clean up after any pet accidents *Water plants as directed. I will let you know if I need you to water them during your stay. All the pets sleep with me at night. No crates!

Beautiful house and all the pets are very sweet. Betsy is such a lover, always wanting to give you kisses, Elliott is very calm and sweet, Mr. Perkins is relaxed, but loves a good head scratch. Pool was beautiful, unfortunately it was too cold for me to take advantage of it. We had fun snuggling on the couch and playing ball.

Dolores has a beautiful new home and pool. I wish it had been warm enough to swim! Her babies are so easy to care for. Betsy is the sweetest, most loving, entertaining little thing. Jeff wanted to take her with us and hope Dolores wouldn't notice. lol Don't hesitate to apply for a sit with Dolores.

Dolores is a wonderful host. She has a Beautiful, impeccably clean, secure home in a very nice neighborhood. Her furry friends are very friendly and easy to care for. Betsy is immediately your friend for life. Elliot gets a burst of energy when encouraged by Betsy. And Mr. Perkins enjoys the show. I’d highly recommend this sit if you get the opportunity. You won’t be disappointed.

Phillip did a wonderful job taking care of my pets and my apartment. I received daily updates and pictures. It was so nice to be able to enjoy my vacation without worrying about anything at home!
