A rental experience that cares about you

We are Canada’s first person-to-person platform that connects Hosts with spare bedrooms to compatible Guests.

Our mission is to provide affordable housing and opportunities for connection through the many spare bedrooms that are otherwise empty.

Feel good about renting.

Testimonials

I was concerned sharing a home at first, but after experiencing living with a wonderful family I would never live in student residence again. We share meals and connect like a family, it's a wonderful feeling.

Charmaine – Happipad Guest

Happipad has completely changed my experience with renting. All of the guests who have lived with me have been amazing.

Linda – Happipad Host

My children connected with my guest right away and loved to play with her. This gave me more time for myself and a role model for my daughter.

Wendy – Happipad Host

As an international student I was very worried about adjusting to a new community. After moving in with my host I felt like I was right at home. This has been by far my best student housing experience.
