$300/week•26 year old woman
Hey! I’m Shainah, 26, a personal trainer working in Port Melbourne. I’m an early riser and love my routine, some may say a creature of habit. My weekdays are usually spent in the gym or out and about with my dog Franklin, and I like to keep home as a tidy, peaceful space to unwind. I’m clean, respectful of shared spaces, and you can count on me for an end of day debrief. On weekends you’ll usually find me at the beach, out for a run, or catching up with friends. I’m social but also enjoy my downtime, so I’m looking for housemates who appreciate a calm, easy-going vibe. I am not in a rush to find my next home, just putting the feelers out there to see whats around or if anyone will be in a similar position early next year and keen to join forces! As mentioned, I do have a 4 legged companion that will be joining me - Frank is a 6 year old Mini Dachshund that is surprisingly well trained considering the reputation most have. He sunbakes the day away, and I usually get him out for atleast 1-2 walks each day. Other than a yap here and there he is absolutely no trouble and has not caused any issues with prior housemates (he has good references outside of my biased opinion I promise).

Hi, I’m Jay.! I’m looking for a place with friendly, easy-going people. I’m social and enjoy hanging out, but I also respect personal space and keep things tidy. A bit about me: I work full time in hospitality. I like going to the gym, running, grabbing a beer with mates. I’m pretty easy-going and always up for a chat. I’d love to live with people who are relaxed, social, and keen for a laugh, but who also appreciate a clean, comfortable place to call home.

Hey 👋🏼 Irish dog father of two brothers, Murph & Mally, 10 months old and they are house trained and love a cuddle. I’m looking for a working professional to team up with on a house with a garden.

Would love someone who’s similar in these areas. (Please no messy people 😅) Looking for a 6-12 month team up to start with.

28-year-old Colombian physiotherapist and current Operations Manager for a maintenance company. I work full-time Monday to Friday (8:30 am–4:00 pm) and usually work from home at least two days a week. I also study online on Wednesdays and Thursdays from 6:00 pm–9:00 pm. After work, I normally go to the gym from 6:30 pm–8:30 pm. On top of that, I’m a soccer player - I train twice a week and play games every weekend. I’ve been in Australia for almost three years and have plenty of experience living in share houses, so I know how important respect, communication, and keeping spaces clean are. I’m tidy, organised, a non-smoker, and although I’m a bit shy, I enjoy good chats while cooking or having dinner. I’m in Melbourne for work and looking for a quiet, respectful, and CLEAN place to live. Tidiness is non-negotiable for me. I’d also love to live with cats or dogs since I’m a big animal lover. If you’re someone who values a clean and peaceful environment, feel free to get in touch!

Hello! I'm Josh, and I am a History Teacher from Northern Ireland. I’ve lived in Melbourne for two years now. You’ll catch me in the classroom during school terms or travelling as much as possible during school breaks. I'd like to think I'm easy-going, and I love meeting new people. I enjoy a good bit of running and some time in the gym, some good coffee, and the odd beer. Massive book work-worm too! I’m up for cooking together, movie nights, and of course some deep conversations after a few pints - but I’m a firm believer that everyone needs some down time by themselves. A perfect weekend for me would include anything outdoors (hiking, running, or just exploring). I'm well practiced in sharing houses and keeping them clean :-) I'd say I'm pretty active and sociable, but my job is often quite demanding so I'm also very driven in that sense. Someone who matches my kind of energy would be a great housemate! Josh :-)
