WA Housing

[Wawannabe]

Hi
New here and introduced myself in the lounge - see "How I found DU"
I am looking to move to WA this month. I have hit a few WALLS.

I am looking for a place to stay for at least a week but a month to month is better.
I have a dog -Zeus. 100lb husky/golden mix. Neutered socialized smart
I am employed now -contract ends when school out. I have yet to have an employer want to interview me despite looking for the last month --i think due to distance. I am fully employable with good credit, a vehicle, equity from real estate sale.
I have had my MO real estate lic. so, by law I had to pass an FBI fingerprint background check -2014. Excellent references. I will be bringing a 5'x8'uhaul my hummer and my dog.

I am clean, quitting smoking cigs mid forties, female.

If you know a friend with a room I would appreciate an email or number to text. Or a vacation rental is ok but I cant pay $100 night. I would pay up to $1000 for the month for a studio or small home. Consider up to $800 for a room.
I feel safer asking here than Craigslist ads etc. ... crosspost ideas anyone? This appears to be the only place to post for this topic but not much traffic...???
Thanks!!
