About the job

I am primarily looking for transportation help, taking me to and from daily appointments, including physical therapy, doctor's appointments, grocery store, etc... I would also like some help with some house keeping and home organization, and possibly some light meal prep. I have a partial spinal cord injury caused by a lesion in my spine known as an Intramedullary Spinal Cavernoma. I have made some great progress and am now able to get around with forearm crutches. I am still unable to drive. I also have balance issues and tend to fall occasionally. I am looking for someone who has a cheerful and positive outlook on life, this is important because gratitude and thankfulness have been central to my recovery. I am also looking for someone who is self motivated and highly organized. Park in our driveway. We have two dogs, a black lab and a terrier. Our black lab is a lot. He's an enthusiastic bundle of joy, but can be a lot to take at times. We also have an old cat, who mostly stays out of sight.
