Unit: 2 bedroom apartment. Seeking roommate to help with rent, cost of living struggle is real out here. $2200 will be split evenly- $1100 each (does not include bills that will be split evenly: PGE bill ~$85 per person monthly + internet $15 per person monthly). So in total, should be around $1200 per person. (will make exceptions for slightly lower rent for those in financial hardship or other special circumstances). Renters insurance is required. Will need to pay a deposit and proof of income/pass screening by apartment management. My lease is for 2 years, will discuss with management if seeking shorter lease. No pets. Ample street parking. Super easy access to 580, 80 , San pablo ave and Bart station.

About me: 33 y/o white female (she/her) physician assistant, just moved from Seattle in May for a job opportunity. I work Mon-Thurs, rarely work from home occasionally so for patient confidentiality, we'd have to be in separate rooms or work something out where you could step out while I make calls. I speak Spanish. Vegetarian. Was active with anti-colonialism/capitalism/racism protests in Seattle, have plans to get involved here. Hobbies: mtn biking, bouldering, hiking, yoga, running, nurturing my community, trying new things (taking surf lessons). Favorite author is Ruth Ozeki.
About Otis: 1 y/o short-hair cat, super friendly, does shed a bit so can't have cat allergy. Indoor, so uses a litter box in the apartment that I clean out regularly, does not have an odor.
About you: respectful, courteous, good communicator, keeps things reasonably tidy in shared spaces, not passive aggressive, no cigarette smoking, no excessive drinking/hard drug use. Able to pay rent on time. Leave the drama outside the apartment. Occasional visitors is fine, we will need to communicate plans for guests, frequent night guests not okay. Vaccinated, pro-masker. Gets along with cats. Meat eaters welcome, but would prefer you use your own cutting board/pans. Doesn't have pets. Won't let my cat out on the balcony alone or leave the front door open, he'll run away and devour all the little birdies in his path.
