Recent alum looking for housesitting opportunity
Hello! I am a recent alum of the College (class of 2025) and am planning to be in town for a visit in late Feb/early March (still unsure of exact timeframe; tickets have not been booked). I wanted to put out feelers to see if anybody in the community is in need of housesitting or petsitting at that time. I would be more than happy to provide services for FREE in exchange for having a place to stay. I can send house/petsitting references if need be and am happy to jump on a phone or zoom call if you’d like to get acquainted more. Thank you for your consideration!

For Sale: Queen Bed Frame
Queen bed frame from Wayfair. It’s metal and the color is “antique white.” It’s made to look old. We also have the split queen box spring to go with it. It was in a guest room and still looks great. $100 or best offer. It is disassembled, but we don’t have a vehicle big enough to transport it, so you would need to be able to transport it yourself. We live about a mile from campus. If interested, please send me an email. Here is the link on Wayfair https://www.wayfair.com/furniture/pdp/three-posts-ackerman-low-profile-standard-bed-w003432246.html?piid=1177316942%2C1177316941
