House Sitter in Kansas City, Missouri

I am a caffeine-loving bibliophile who tends to be a home body but also likes to travel and experience living in different areas. I'm looking for opportunities to stay in exciting areas as well as opportunities for solitude in nature. Not a dog fan, but LOVE cats and would be willing to consider caring for other small mammals, maybe birds or reptiles depending on the level of care needed. You won't have to worry about me throwing parties at your house- I might have a friend or two over for tea, that's about it. I'm willing to go pretty much anywhere in the US (or maybe even farther) if the opportunity seems right.
