Looking for rat sitter!

Hi! For anyone unaware: This is a part of Texas that was originally one of the rat capitals (and not in the good way) so I'm struggling to find a pet sitter. This is the first time I'll be leaving for more than a day out of state due to surgical complications that I need long term care for (1 month recovery for severe carpel tunnel). I am unable to take my rats on the plane nor does my caretaker have the ability to care for the rats (2) because he has 2 pet kittens.

I can't drop them off at a pet store for relocation/rehoming because I cannot drive the 2 hours to Dallas to my friend who does own rats. I do not own a car and it is illegal for me to drive plus the amtrak already said no rats even if they're in a carrier & I pay the cat fee sad face.

Rats, even domestic, are not considered pets here. I moved with them from NY via friends car and uh, I didn't expect them to live 4 years as they were feeders I got while on a bender 😅 (Ever woken up with no memory and suddenly animals in your hive? I'm recovered now but geez- that was Insane. Shout out to my rats for forcing me to stay clean!)

I mainly just need someone to feed / clean them as their cage is rated for 4 rats according the calculator. I was planning on budgeting around $70 a week but I'm not sure if that's enough for the following: 1x daily check in for food / water (15m-30m) 2x a week cleanings (30m each so 1 h a week)

Living wage here is $15.50 per hour but standard wage is $8-$10.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Possibly moving to Texarkana

As the title says. My husband is retiring next year in June after 21 years in the Air Force and he keeps saying Texarkana is on his mind as a possibility. We're looking for a small to mid size town. He's worked logistics his entire career and has a Master's degree. Is the job market okay? How is crime there? Are the schools decent? We have a high schooler and a middle schooler. Any areas around Texarkana that are good? We don't mind commutes up to like 30 mins or so.

I read previous posts, but they are all older and I was hoping for anything updated. So sorry for the excessive questions. We've just always lived where the military told us to and we kind of just adapted to it. Everywhere we've lived the schools were abysmal (like Las Vegas, and Clovis NM were just AWFUL) Now, we have a choice and it's so stressful. TIA for any info!!

Best campground in the area?

Hey reddit, I'm heading to texarkana to work at the Red River Army base in 2 weeks. I'll be there for quite a while. 1.5 years minimum. Probably longer because there's tons of USACE jobs in that base going out for bid in the near future.

I'll be living in my travel trailer. I see that there are a pretty good number of campgrounds in the area....

Which one(s) have you been to? Which ones do you like? Which ones did you hate?

Also, who has the best BBQ in town?

Thanks!

How is Special education in the schools

We are considering a move to the area and the education environment is highly important for us. We have a 10-year-old high functioning autistic child (level 2). Would be interested in hearing from other parents with special needs students how their experience with the schools have been.
