Meal Preparation & Housekeeping – Assist with cooking, cleaning, and general household upkeep. Shared Interests and Connection – I enjoy knitting, reading, watching TV, tabletop role-playing games (especially Dungeons & Dragons), music (all kinds!), and keyboards. Ideally, you share some of these interests or are open to learning about them. Qualities We Value: Cat Lover – Roy Rodgers is family, so you must enjoy spending time with cats. Open Mind toward Neurodivergence and LGBTQ – A willingness to understand neurodiversity and support an LGBTQ friendly household.
