I am seeking a roommate to fill an upcoming vacancy in my 2 bedroom Parkdale apartment.

I am a 33 year old cis-woman working for a psychotherapy training institution as an Admin & Marketing coordinator.

I am the leaseholder of this unit for the past 5 years, and am looking to replace my long-time roommate who is ready to move on.

In addition to myself, there is also a cuddly 14 year old Cocker Spaniel (dog) named Ted, and a very sweet cat named Linda. To be clear, there is no expectation for the tenant chosen to care for the animals in any way, but you must be okay with being around a dog and a cat (and the hair that comes with them).

I am looking for someone similar in age/lifestyle and would prefer to live with another female identifying or non-binary person (LGBTQIA+ friendly). I am not excluding cis-males from applying if they feel they would be a good fit.

Lifestyle/Habits

I work office hours Monday-Thursday at my job (I do not work from home), so I am typically gone from about 9AM - 6PM those days. I work in an office now, but was a server/bartender for about 13 years prior to this, so I understand that not everyone’s schedules meet the typical 9-5 lifestyle, and I can manage coordinating with someone on a different schedule.

I am neurodivergent (AuDHD), which affects my ‘social battery’, so after a work day I am pretty burnt out and reclusive - I tend to retreat to my room to unwind. I also tend to spend a lot of my weekends unwinding quietly at home with the pets, or doing projects around the house. I don’t have guests over frequently, and will always give notice before I do.

I am fairly tidy, and very clean. Typically one day of my weekend is spent doing a general clean of the entire apartment, along with a few deep clean/detailing tasks, so you can be sure you’re moving in somewhere clean and well maintained.

My hobbies and interests include basically anything creative (art, craft, music, DIY, photography etc), technology and cyber security and food & drink (dining, cooking, wine & cocktails). For the most part if you see me around the apartment, I will be cooking or working on some kind of creative project and listening to some music.

I treat my home as my sanctuary. I need to be able to feel I can be my authentic self when I am at home and I want my roommate to feel the same. Aside from a few necessary house rules that prevent damages or conflict, I am flexible, and respectful and understanding of others’ needs, expectations or quirks.
