RCA MA – quiet, tidy + trained dog (Battersea)
About me
I’m looking forward to starting my MA at the RCA and finding a comfortable place to call home.
I’m 63, a non-smoker, and about to begin a one-year MA in Design Products at the Royal College of Art this September.
I’m friendly, respectful and easy to live with, and I value a calm, clean and considerate home. I’ve lived in shared spaces before and understand the importance of being tidy, reliable and mindful of others.
I’ll be living with my (fem) New Zealand Huntaway dog, who is very well behaved, calm indoors, and used to living in a home environment. She’s fully house-trained, not destructive, and I’m very responsible as an owner.
I’m sociable but not a party person—happy to chat over a cup of tea, but also very comfortable doing my own thing. My focus this year will be on my studies, so I’m looking for a stable, relaxed environment.
🏡 What I’m looking for
Ideally Battersea / SW London (close to RCA)
A dog-friendly household or landlord
A quiet, respectful home
Clean, well-kept shared spaces
Long-term let (around 12 months)
👤 What I offer as a flatmate
Clean, tidy and organised
Non-smoker
Considerate and low-noise
Reliable with rent and bills
Responsible dog owner
Mature and easy-going
🐾 About my dog Ted - New Zealand Huntaway
Very well behaved and calm indoors
Fully house-trained
Not destructive
Used to living in shared environments
Regularly exercised and well cared for
Doesn’t bark much / good with people / good with other dogs.
She will never be left alone.
I’m looking for a comfortable and well-kept home while I study full-time at the RCA. I’d be very happy to chat or meet - on my own or with my dog - to see if it’s a good fit.
