About the occupants
Hi I'm Robert and I share the house with Nath. The house atmosphere is chilled, there's a mutual respect for each other's space and privacy and we both pitch in with keeping the place clean and tidy. I spend a few nights a week at my girlfriends house and I'm studying aged care.

We are happy to share a meal but we mostly do our own thing. Rob is an awesome cook, gardener and vegan. Nath's an alright cook and will eat whatever is put in front of him.
Rob's into running, reading and is a passionate animal rights and welfare activist, who digs walking his dog with his girlfriend and her dog. Both dogs are very friendly and cat friendly.
Nath works in Warehousing and is into cycling but is too uncoordinated to run. Nath spends most of his spare time painting and going to the gym, drinking coffee and is passionate about human rights and equality.

Rpb - Rob is a peaceful and caring guy. Enjoys hanging with his girlfriend and their dogs, gardening, running, animal welfare advocacy and lobbying for animal rights.

Nath - Nath is friendly and kind. Enjoys art, cooking and eating, cycling, music and drinking coffee.
Compatible people
We are looking for a housemate who is respectful and considerate. Someone who cares about and is kind to animals and is generally easy going. Reliability paying rent and bills is a must, so regular employment is necessary. Good and peaceful communication to sort out issues is also a must. We are down to earth guys who respect people of all backgrounds and we are looking for a like minded person.
Description of pets
Mutley an 8 year old mixed breed who loves everyone and everything and Lexie is an older cat who spends most of her time in the backyard or shed. They both get along and often have Sasha, my girlfriend's dog over for a play visit. They are quiet and clean and a joy to live with. We are open to welcoming another dog into the household as long as they get along with the current dog and cat residents.
