HOME SEEKER: Anywhere in greater Tucson area 

 

Senior woman with caregiving experience seeks a non-smoking, quiet home share arrangement. I would prefer to be in an all-electric home, off a main road, in a quiet neighborhood with parking. A guesthouse or two rooms with possible storage and a bathroom would be ideal. I am environmentally sensitive and wellness-oriented, so prefer nontoxic cleaning products and avoidance of pesticides. I am looking for a home sharing experience that includes basic caregiving in exchange for a negotiable financial arrangement, and can also offer homemade meals from scratch (esp. special diets), light cleaning, laundry and occasional transportation. 

My educational background is a BA in Sociology and a Master’s degree in Counseling. I am well-traveled, positive, somewhat of a foodie, and have many interests including reading, cooking/baking, health and wellness, art and beading, camping, nature, and working out. I would love to share a home and have a warm relationship with a like-minded person.

HOME SEEKER: Preference for Quiet Neighborhood and South of the Catalina Foothills 

​

Hi, there, Senior Home Providers. I'm a friendly, female Home Seeker who just became part of the senior cohort. My low maintenance dog (meaning she's well-trained, hypo-allergenic, non-shedding sheep-a-doodle who does dumb dog tricks) and I are ready to come keep you company as a compatible homemate and provide aging support (including but not limited to driving about town, shopping, gardening, pet care, household assistance, health support etc.). 

I work from home as a writer and I record audiobooks so I'm around the house a lot, but I keep to myself most of the time. While I prefer a space of my own like a casita, I'm fine with a sizeable bedroom where I can set up my small recording studio. I am happy to spend social time with you (such as mealtimes), tho’ I do need some quiet time every day. Please do not ask me to discuss politics and I probably won't discuss religion either. I stand fairly neutral on most subjects. As a writer, I can discuss quite a wide variety of topics. I am well-travelled, fairly well-read, and have eclectic tastes. Because of neutral standings, I can get along with almost anyone - unless you are a person who ABSOLUTELY MUST discuss politics.

Fairly active, somewhat nerdy, senior female. Worked with scientists and engineers, but now I’m retired.

​

Home Seeker: Eastside Preference

​

I am an active senior, female nature-lover working part time as a teacher with primary leisure activities of book club, the gym, church activities and spending time with close friends. 

​

I am looking for a home sharing arrangement (or a casita) in the Catalina Foothills or on Tucson’s east side. If home sharing, a private bedroom (preferably unfurnished) and bath with shared common area would be ideal. I prefer kitchen privileges with occasional shared cooking and meals and would appreciate cupboard space for food, a small amount of cookware/dishes, part of the refrigerator/ freezer and a place to park my car.

I enjoy mornings with quiet time outdoors and can contribute gardening time and other household assistance to the home provider. Pets are ok too.
I do enjoy conversation but am not looking for constant talk. My former work experience includes administration of assisted living homes and a Montessori School. A quiet, peaceful, tidy environment is important to me; I would not be comfortable with a TV or music playing constantly or loudly.

I am currently in a home sharing situation which has been very harmonious.  The home provider’s circumstances have changed and I am looking for new arrangements.

References are available upon request.
