About this person
49 year old single female looking for share accommodation in the North/East suburbs of Melbourne. I have 2 children, 17 & 15 but they both live permanently with their Dad. I have two 4.5 year old German Shepherds, brother and sister named Hunter & Bear and require a property that can house both.

Description of pets
Hunter and Bear are a unique duo who bring endless warmth and character into my everyday life. Though they are siblings from different litters—with Hunter being just three months older—their personalities couldn’t be more distinct. Hunter is the affectionate charmer, the “lover and look,” while Bear is ever the vigilant guardian with a natural protective streak. When I first introduce them to our home, it is clear that each have a role to play. Hunter’s gentle, loving nature makes him the first to shower you with a warm welcome, his eyes full of trust and playful curiosity. In stark contrast, Bear’s alert demeanor is unmistakable; the moment a stranger approaches, she stands guard, her posture radiating determination and care. Our evenings are a scene of cozy togetherness—both dogs join me indoors as we wind down from the day. Fully house-trained, they are perfectly at ease under the warmth of our shared space, making our home a haven of comfort and routine. While I'm at work, they enjoy the freedom of the outdoors, each taking their own watch over the yard, making sure that everything is just as it should be. One of the most endearing routines is their distinctive greeting for visitors. Before any new human is allowed close, Hunter and Bear perform their own little inspection ritual—a thorough sniffing session that quickly determines if you’re friend or foe. Once they’ve made their assessment, any visitor is rewarded with what feels like an immediate, lifelong friendship, sealed by their unmistakable way of letting you into their “pack.” Yet, despite the grand display of loyalty toward anyone who earns their trust, their unwavering allegiance remains focused on me.
There’s a playful irony in our home: during the day, Hunter’s affectionate demeanor and Bear’s vigilant guard duty signify the presence of two proud German Shepherds. But when I finally return home, all the protective posturing fades away. It’s as if the antics of the day are momentarily forgotten, and you’re reminded that they’re not just show-stopping guard dogs—they’re simply my companions, comfortable in the familiar rhythm of home life. Every day with Hunter and Bear is an adventure in contrasts—between their instincts and their affections, their roles as protector and friend. They remind me that even within a single family, diverse personalities not only coexist but enrich the tapestry of life in extraordinary ways.
