Description
Hi I’m Mario, I work full time as an assistant superintendent for a private construction company. My job sites are always within the 5 boroughs of NY usually Brooklyn or Queens. On my free time I like to go to the theaters, play soccer, or play poker with friends. I adopted Gloria a few months ago, she is a mixed breed dog about a year and a half old. She has a great personality and tries to play with any dog we encounter on our walks, even tries to play with the neighborhood outdoor cats but they always run away. My 1 bedroom apartment includes in unit Washer dryer, dishwasher, bathtub and small balcony from the bedroom. The building has a small gymnasium, next to a small lounge. Exiting the lounge there is a 3rd floor open roof patio with a gas grill for anyone to use. The rooftop has a great NYC view and also has a gas grill ready to be used!
A shake shack and Chipotle restaurant just opened 10’ away from the building. The subway station is also 10’ away from the building entrance and can take you to the city in 25mins!

Accommodation
I have 2 living room sofa beds available.
I go grocery shopping once a week but there is a supermarket across the street.
Workawayers can also cook and use anything in the kitchen I already have available however they like.
optional: For long stays I would suggest splitting the grocery shopping bill with the workawayers and we can alternate cooking throughout the week.
What else ...
Locally there are plenty of shops and restaurants to browse within walking distance. I would suggest taking a 25-45 minute subway ride into the different areas of nyc that they would like to explore.

Mario is very cool and kind, and he's got lots to talk about and teach you if you're open to it! The work was super easy too: Gloria is the friendliest pup ever and we bonded immediately, so it… read more
She was super helpful, and exactly what I was looking for in a workawayer to help me around the house and she would still go above and beyond asking if there was anything else she could help me with. My dog Gloria will miss her walks and friendly smile. Would have booked Jen for a year if it was possible!
