Basenji sitter in NYC

Basenji Talk
  • I am looking for someone to stay with my 2 Basenji's in my apartment while I am traveling September 7th thru 14th.
    We live uptown Manhattan, just below the Cloisters, and my boys are 10 + 11.5 years, very friendly and easy to be with.
    They need 3 walks a day (around the amazing Fort Tryon Park, across the street for our house), can be left during daytime
    for 8-9-ish hours, eat once a day at night and need no medication. We live one block from the A-train for easy access to downtown.

  • Hi: I too am looking for a sitter in the NYC/New Jersey area – if you found someone, would you be willing to share that info? Thanks!

    @planetsaver said in Basenji for me or not ?: Will be a problem to leave him alone, let's say 10 days / month an average of 9 hours a day. Also I do not want to have to much trouble with the neighbours, but I understand he can make some noise sometimes, maybe he can be trained to stay alone and not to bark that much. Why would you even think about training a hunting hound to stay home alone ? I would never let my Basenjis alone for more than 4 hours, and even that is very rare. 3 hours is absolute maximum. Like @tanza, I have sold puppies into apartment environments as long as all other boxes ticked positive. Someone there all the time, proper attention to training, not just leaving the dog alone, especially not as a puppy. btw, he won't bark at all. As you would know if you had really researched the breed. He will cry and scream but not bark ! No. At least you are asking questions but I really think you should find another breed.

    I doubt it would work but we are about 4 hours away in Snowmass and would consider it if there is any way you could make the trip here. We are from Michigan and are planning a trip to Detroit in October and are working on figuring out a dog sitter for that trip. We have a one-year female. It would be great to trade-out but I think are we are probably too far away from each other.
