House Sitter Job in Meadville, Mississippi

I'm hoping I can connect with a kind, reliable person can start immediately! Urgent and unexpected situation. I am a freelance travel writer and I recently moved to the Meadville area. I hired a local college age guy who had a flyer at the nearby country store to pet sit for 2 to 3 weeks while I'm on an assignment in Florida. I paid him the him the first week in advance because he needed money for school expenses and he quit on me today, only 3 days into the job, by text, saying that he has too many personal problems and school obligations. I need somebody at the earliest possible convenience that they can find meaning today would be wonderful. I'm really hoping to meet a good person who wants and needs this work and will be reliable and also caring towards my animals when I am gone. I feel that I pay well and I do travel a lot so I could keep the right person quite busy and it could turn out to be a lovely business relationship.
