Description

I’m a PhD grad student in geography, trying to finish up my degree and I’m transferring to Ottawa to do it. I’m a traveler/wanderer, and enjoy biking, camping and paddling. I’ve lived in a lot of different places, and I’ve been lucky to live in many great roommates/shared houses and looking for something like that again. I have a 10 pound adult dog and will probably be focused on my writing most of the time though obviously needing breaks. Would prefer more urban neighborhood, but open to different options though I would need a decent commute time to Carleton and decent price for rent etc.

What our customers are saying

Just found my 2nd roommate here. Roomies makes it easy and less stressful. Great place to find a roommate.

I found the site to be clear of scams which is very much appreciated since there's so much garbage out there on the web.

Flawless design and user-friendly. I hope people really catch on to this app because it is well put together for people looking for affordable housing.

Roomies is my #1 go to whenever I want to list a room for rent because I always have a better experience with them than any of the other sites out there.
