My partner and I have a small 1950s bungalow on Burnaby's South Slope (Royal Oak and Marine area), on a quiet street with nice neighbours. The Royal Oak Skytrain is a 20-minute walk uphill (good exercise!) and the bus line runs along Marine, about a 5-minute walk away. We are a non-smoking household. We have a small elderly Lakeland terrier that is too set in his ways now to adapt to a kennel, and he needs some company in familiar surroundings while we're taking our dream trip to Havana. Other than walking the dog (and his walks are brief) and watering my lucky bamboo, there is nothing else you need do. We have a large TV in a cosy den, dishwasher, washer and dryer, etc. Thank you for your consideration!
