About the roomies
ABOUT MIKE • The Professional: Mike is a reliable, full-time professional working stable, structured hours. He takes pride in running a highly organized, secure, and financially mature household. • The Lifestyle: He loves a peaceful, clean environment to wind down after a busy shift. Mike is exceptionally quiet, respects personal boundaries, and treats the flat as a true sanctuary to relax in. He is looking for a long-term flatshare dynamic where flatmates can have a friendly chat in the shared spaces while fully respecting each other’s private space and downtime. • Meet Frankie! Mike shares the flat with his 5-year-old Labrador, Frankie. Frankie is a beautifully behaved, incredibly friendly, and very quiet companion. He does shed hair, so Mike is vigilant about hoovering to minimise the impact this has. Because Frankie is an integral part of the home, it is an absolute mandate that anyone moving in welcomes having a friendly dog around the space.
