My name is Ria — originally from London — and I live locally in the Hollywood Hills with my dog Thumper, who truly is a gentle giant.
We’ve been staying with dear friends, but they have just sold their home with a quick close, so we are now hoping to find our next place within the next 6 days.
If anyone happens to know of an ADU, guest house, studio, or even a room in the right household, we would be incredibly grateful to hear about it.
🐾 About Thumper Thumper is a Cane Corso who, from a distance, sometimes looks like he may have been beamed up from the underworld… but up close you’ll see the softest, kindest eyes and the sweetest nature imaginable.
• 🏠 Fully house trained & calm indoors� • 🐕 Genuinely wonderful with other dogs & people
He is beautifully trained and stays almost entirely glued to my side. If there’s a balcony, he’ll happily sit and “guard” not only your home but the neighboring ones too — essentially full-time security. Think ADT… but furrier and more intuitive.
🌿 About Me I’ve been compared to Monica from Friends when it comes to cleanliness and organization. I’m lethal with a cordless Dyson and surprisingly effective with a leaf blower!
🌱 I love gardening, being outside, organizing spaces, and taking good care of wherever I live.
🏡 I own my own property in London and manage three additional family rental homes there, so I understand both sides of renting and owning.
As a tenant, I treat a home as if it were my own — with care, respect, and pride — and I’m always flexible should an owner ever need their space back.
🔎 Ideally Looking For • 🏠 ADU, guest house, or studio with its own entrance�• 🌿 Balcony or small outdoor space (Thumper would be thrilled)�• 📍 Hollywood Hills area (currently off upper Nichols Canyon)�• 🧺 Washer/dryer access would be wonderful but not essential
🤍 Also Happy To • 🍳 Help with cooking, cleaning, laundry, gardening, or organizing�• 🏡 Consider a room in the right household if it’s a good mutual fit�• 🤝 Open to arrangements that could be mutually helpful
Easygoing, respectful of others’ space, and genuinely easy to live with.
If you or someone you know may have something suitable, we would truly love to hear from you. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this.
