This home was very pet-friendly and we loved everything about this home. Original hardwood flooring and bathroom tile. If you like character homes, this is it. The host, Martine, was very quick to respond to our questions and made checking in and out, a breeze. Thank you for making our stay, comfortable

Thank you so much for your stay and treating my home like yours! I'm glad you found our character home up to your expectations and comfortable!
The house was so cozy and fully stocked with all I needed. The neighbourhood is so quiet and super walkable if you're bringing your dog. The location is amazing - close to grocery stores, great coffee shops and restaurants, parks, and even a wonderful little book store. Coco, who lives downstairs, was so helpful and accommodating. I really loved my stay here!
dog friendly.The ONLY downside was there were a lot of steps up to the front door.It was truly a character house and we really enjoyed our stay and would stay there again. It was super convenient to the Pacific Coliseum (we walked there) and easy to get an uber to get anywhere.Comfy beds. large master bedroom and good size second bedroom. full kitchen. having the enclosed front porch cut down on all the traffic noise out front - slept really well.
We really enjoyed staying in your lovely house! It would have been nice to know in advance that there’s a tenant living downstairs - but she was great, and didn’t mind our music-making.
Enjoyed our stay very much. Clean, quiet charming home with very comfy beds and plenty of space to stretch out.
Owner and her neighbor were welcoming and very helpful and accommodating.
Very nice and clean. Well appointed with lots of ammenities. Beds were comfortable. Host was very quick to follow up and friendly. The house is in a quiet neighborhood and a short walk to several nice restaurants and shops. 10 minute drive to Rogers arena. If you have kids there is a nice park nearby.Lots of people out walking their dogs at not. The neighborhood felt very safe.The back yard is indeed fully fenced and secure for pets. Lots of street parking and a spot in the back alley for one car.
The interior of the older house has lovely wood flooring. My car was safe in the (optional) off-street parking. I felt comfortable & safe in the house & in the area. A caretaker lived nearby in case I needed help with anything. The location is an older residential area--not downtown--but was close to downtown. Access to everywhere I wanted to visit was easy. There was some initial confusion in accessing the property; this was quickly resolved by a responsive host. I would stay here again.
