Searching in Elizabeth, NJ
My at-home-only service dog, Goose, and I are quiet, neat roommates. He’s a senior sack of potatoes, and I love a quiet night in. He’s a migraine alert dog, but he’s only ‘on duty’ at night since I can tell they’re coming on when I’m awake. In our free time, I love to bake, quilt, garden, read, and watch documentaries of all sorts while Goose likes spending his days basking in the sun or having a frolic in the yard. Goose is good with other dogs, but gets a little too rambunctious around cats and little things like rabbits or guinea pigs. He’s never cared about birds (one landed on him while he was napping and he didn’t move an inch) or fish, so I don’t think that would hold us up, and I’ve never had the chance to expose him to reptiles, so I can’t say on that count.
I do work hybrid – very few calls and mostly just working on documents – so I would need a reasonable level of quiet (not silence, just no blasting music or throwing a daytime party without warning so I can go somewhere else) two to three days a week. I’m also super open to people in established relationships or just dating the gambit as long as communication is open about when people will be coming in, am happy to accommodate most dietary restrictions (barring celiac. Sorry, I just eat too much gluten. I’m happy to accommodate a gluten allergy or sensitivity though, since different utensils and cookware isn’t necessary) and medical conditions for any shared items or storage, and have plenty of experience with splitting responsibilities with roommates which should help us establish a smooth routine!
