Could you spend weekday afternoons with Raymond? (Houston)

I look after my father and work nights. I'm looking for someone patient to sit with Raymond on weekday afternoons.

I'm Joyce, and I look after my father at home in Houston. Raymond has poor mobility after a hip operation and should not be alone for long stretches. I work nights, and the gap on weekday afternoons is the hardest part of my week. What I need is someone calm and reliable to be in the house from about 1pm until 5pm. Mostly that means company, a cup of tea, lunch and a short walk if the weather is kind. No lifting and no medical care. Raymond loves her grandchildren and will talk your ear off about it. I'm home before dark and will always leave the phone numbers of the doctor and a neighbor. I'd like to meet you first with Raymond present, and I'm happy to give a reference from our doctor's office. If you have done care work before, wonderful, but kindness matters more. Thank you for reading, and for even thinking about it.
