Abdelkader can care for
Availability
I usually work park time at a record store, and I sit on my laptop doing other things. I also take two 2-hour walks a day and workout 4x a week. So, I have a lot of free time and I usually don’t go around for more than 3-4 hours a day. My work is pretty stationary and I am actively walking outside, so pets will usually always have a place in my routine!

About Abdelkader F.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I already deal with delicate items at my record store, so I know how to place and shelf items that are important to avoid any damage from pets. I really do emphasize that, because I know how frustrating it’d be to have any issues with your pets breaking stuff and not having any action being done by a sitter. Unfortunately I cannot board pets in my home because I live with roommates who are allergic :(
Information Abdelkader F. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know in what ways I can accommodate for your dog the best I can! I have administered oral medications and cared for some senior/elderly dogs and cats before. I also took care of infant 4–8-week-old puppies and kittens. If there are things I cannot do, I would be willing to learn! However, if you prefer someone with more experience with that particular accommodation, I understand, and I'll let you know beforehand if another caretaker would be more suitable. However, I don't believe in "difficult" pets, and it is my job to adapt to any situation that may arise :)
A typical day
I know all types of parks and green and wide areas in the UES, LES, and UWS! I can run, play, and do all sorts of things that big, small, and any type of energetic dog could want to do. I walk for usually 2-3 hours a day, so I know the safest route to get to parks, and I am familiar with good routes on the East or West side rivers, Central Park, and all sorts of parks in the places above. I can go to dog parks, or just walk in serene areas if your dog is antisocial and would prefer a more subtle vibe.

Pet care experience
I’m a highly energetic, passionate, and empathetic person when it comes to animals and people in the world. I make everything work to provide the best customer service to all pets and owners. People in 2021 spent $109.8b a year on their dogs, and I understand animals are family members and deserve the highest standard of care. I am a Psychology minor with an emphasis on infant and behavioral psychology. I have dog/cat sat for friends for a few years now, along with having my own stray-adopted cat back home. I have also taken care of my infant niece, and my elderly parents for a few years now. I understand you put your utmost care and trust into your pets, and I empathize to the importance of that. Be assured that you can leave your pets in caring hands and not have to worry or feel any pressure or ridicule from someone who will respect your pets <3

Top notch amazing sitter. He gave me peace of mind about my cat while I've been in the hospital.
Super personable & responsible guy! Took excellent care of my cat and was extremely responsive throughout the process. Would book him again!
Thanks as always for taking great care!
