About Inwood
What pet sitting in Inwood actually looks like
Inwood is Manhattan's northernmost neighborhood, beyond Washington Heights, anchored by Inwood Hill Park (196 acres of forest, salt marsh, and the last natural forest in Manhattan). Dyckman Street is the commercial spine, with Dominican restaurants and grocery stores. Pre-war Art Deco co-ops and walk-ups.
Inwood sitters are predominantly Dominican-American family-oriented with high yard availability (rare for Manhattan; some single-family homes near the park have outdoor space). The breed mix favors medium-large breeds: Labradors, Aussies, rescue mixes. Pricing the cheapest in Manhattan.
