Hi, My Name is Mat, I live in Manhattan right around Union Square. I am a musician and travel quite often. I need a tidy, dependable, apartment sitter to take care of my place while I'm away. I travel often, trips can range from 3 weeks, to 3 months a time. Duties are: taking care of plants, fish, and bringing in the mail. I prefer a non live-in while I'm away situation and therefore pay for your work, but I'm willing to consider the option. If so, definitely no smoking, use of drugs, etc... the usual annoyances... References required. Thanks, Mat
