Need a roof over my head! Help!

Hi there! 52 year old female here with medium sized sweet doggy girl (about 40 lbs) whom is spayed, well trained, and clean. I actually have dog references for her for anyone that may want to consider. My partner decided to end the relationship this past August taking his share of income with him, and left me in a beautiful house that I cannot afford now. So it has to be sold ASAP and i have literally no where to go. In the last 3 years alone, i have lost a husband, my father, my mother, grandmother, granddaughter, and my other 13 year old dog. I have very stable monthly income but can only afford about $500 per month right now for housing until I start working again here soon. I have been interviewing actively and am pretty confident I will get something soon. Then I will be able to afford to pay more than the $500. I don't necessarily need a room/place that is furnished already because I have my own bed and etc to furnish a whole bedroom if necessary. Or I can put my things all in storage too. I'm flexible either way with that. I'm intelligent, funny, very kind and caring but I also keep to myself mostly. I know how to "read the room" and be respectful of other people's time and space. I was raised right and with respect and manners. I am also reliable and responsible and keep things clean.
