About the occupants
Hi I'm Josh, I'm 31 years old and have recently moved to Newcastle for work - I'm a heritage consultant working full time. I work normal business hours. I play soccer and train a few times a week and occasionally go for a surf. I try and walk my dog Milly most days. I enjoy relaxing after work and the occasional drink.
Compatible people
I am looking for someone/a couple who is relaxed and easy going, who doesn't mind the occasional dinner or drink at home or out so a sociable person with an active lifestyle would be best. I do have a dog so I guess you would have to like dogs and not be allergic. Someone who is clean and tidy is a plus. Friends/family are always welcome.
Description of pets
Milly is a large Maremma (Italian sheepdog) (45kg). She is placid and will sleep most of the day likes a quick run/play most days. She doesn't bark and loves a pat. She spends the day outside when I'm at work but will be inside during the evenings.
