Kieren

URGENT!

Hi! I’m Kieren. I’m looking for a pet-friendly rental around Brisbane. Ideally less then 30 mins from Mount gravatt or near a train station, but not to worried!
Im 23, working as a barista and bartender, and start full-time studies next year. In a dream, I’d love a small studio, unit, or granny flat. But I’m also looking for a room, as long as it can accommodate my two beloved outdoor dogs. Kleo (4yrs) & Kora (6yrs) are staffys, desexed, very friendly, and mean the world to me. I know finding a place with pets isn’t easy, but I’m committed to making it work. They’re trained to stay outdoors, but Kleo can jump a 5.5 foot fence. Secure fencing would be ideal, as she only does this in new/unfamiliar places when she’s searching for me. Once she’s comfortable, she no longer tries to jump☺️

A bit more about my situation:

• I'm currently paying $180 p/w for my own room and bathroom but understand that's cheap. I'm prepared to pay up to $350 p/w, although $250 & below would be ideal:)
• As a student on Centrelink benefits, I'll be receiving regular payments that ensure rent is covered each week, even if my job situation changes.
• I’ve been renting with friends for 2 years, but I’ve unfortunately my time has come, and need to find a home 🏠
• I don’t have traditional rental references, but I’m responsible, reliable, and can provide references from my current and former employers.
• I do have a car, so parking would be a bonus!

A bit about me!
I moved from NSW to QLD two years ago, and have been working in hospitality since I was 16. I love what I do, and next year I’m hoping to study fashion design, combining my love for creativity and style. I’m a non-smoker, I'm single, and while I enjoy going out for a drink occasionally, I don't drink at home. I’m outdoorsy and love spending time with my dogs, but I’m also a bit of a homebody. I’m respectful, kind, and I value having a quiet space to recharge.
I also feel obliged to mention that I'm part of the
LGBTQ+ community. So Im looking for an environment where this is met with respect and understanding!😁

Things are not working out for me in my current living situation. Im needing a place ASAP. If anyone has any leads or suggestions, l'd be very grateful. Thank you for considering!

I value respect, kindness, and responsibility. I’m a reliable and considerate person who takes pride in being clean, organised, and respectful of others’ space. I like a positive environment where everyone feels comfortable. I’m also independent, prefer to keep to myself when at home, and enjoy having a personal space to recharge. However, I’m always willing to help with chores or lend a hand when needed.

I prefer arranging my own food but am happy to share occasionally if it works out for everyone. I’m not vegetarian or vegan, so I eat a range of foods, but I’m respectful of others’ dietary preferences. I also only have my own bedroom furnishings, but also always happy to help if needed.

I have two friendly female dogs: a 6-year-old Staffy named Kora and a 4-year-old Staffy x Bull Terrier named Kleo. Kora is very gentle and has an old soul, while Kleo is young at heart, sweet, but a bit excitable. She requires a backyard with a fence at least 5.5 feet high to keep her safely contained. In new environments, she may feel anxious and try to find me, leading to her jumping fences:/ But once she settles in and recognises her new home, she stops trying to escape:)

Both dogs have been around young children since they were puppies and are very well-trained with kids. They also get along well with other dogs, though they do best with larger breeds, as they can play a little rough due to their Staffy nature. They are both good with cats, and have lived with many in the past!

At home, Kleo may occasionally bark at passing dogs or unfamiliar noises once she’s comfortable, but she quiets down quickly when asked. Overall, both Kleo and Kora are wonderful, well-behaved dogs that any dog lover would love!
