About the occupants
I'm a 49 year old, Sydney born and raised gay man.

I'm sane, sorted and my professional background is in marketing and all things digital. I currently work from home with some days in the office.

My interests include renovation, design, tech, music, concerts, movies, great TV and the footy (NRL). I generally like trying new experiences and helping others where I can but I'm also a bit of a home body.

I also have 2 super cool little sausage dogs that everyone who meets loves them.
Compatible people
I'm looking for a friendly and considerate person with a positive attitude to life. If you're after a drama-free home and don't mind doing your bit to keep the home clean and tidy, then we're on the same page. I think it's great to have a friendship within the home, but also respect each others space and privacy. You'll also need to be pet friendly, respectful of neighbours and a nice person (as I am too).

Please message with a completed profile (no blank profiles).
Description of pets
I have 2 miniature dachshunds (sausage dogs) called Woody (12 yo) and Leeloo (11 yo). They're house trained and have a doggy door that lets them spend time inside the house and outside in the backyard. They sleep a lot and are less active as they're older dogs. Woody is super friendly and loves pats and Leeloo loves attention of any kind.
