With the available now button, it should show roughly where and hours available for that day and that day only. The provider needs to log in again to update it daily. It'll weed out a lot of ladies though.

What I'm thinking is that she could log in, which would bump her to to top of the list automatically, and then she could hit the Available Now button which would show her in the Available Now list in her city for 15 minutes.
She would have a count down timer for that 15 minutes, and could click it at any time to reset the 15 minutes.
On the client side, your would click an Available Now button for your city and it would show only those profiles with an active Available Now session going.
Unfortunately, we wouldn't be able to allow additional text fields because they would need to be monitored for sexual terminology. But you'd think those providers who use the feature would make sure the info on their page is up to date.
Also, I can see there would be room for abuse by providers using software that clicks that button over and over indefinitely. So we'd have to figure out a way to deal with that..... but other than that, this sounds like a really great idea.
I'm actually on vacation this week (haha) so I'll work more on this when I get home.
Always,
