Housing in D.C. for soon-to-be Stanford grad student!

Hi everyone!

I will be finishing my masters program at Stanford this upcoming spring (june) and I will be starting at a government job in DC. I am a first-generation, latina student who is looking for affordable housing and/or offering my part-time housesitting/petsitting/babysitting services in exchange for housing. Starting in government with a very underpaid job is hard and I am looking to find a housing opportunity that can fit my situation for the start of my career in gov't please.

If you know anyone who could possibly fit this description that is within the stanford network, please feel free to reach out. I can provide references from past landlords!

Thank you so much!
