About Us

Hi, welcome to DORMY! I’m Neil Cooney — a proud alum of both the University of Waterloo, Lakehead University and Western University. My wife, Lena is a graduate of Wilfred Laurier University and Western. Back when we were students, we saw firsthand how stressful it can be to find a safe, reliable place to live, especially when seeking housing remotely. Years later, as student landlords ourselves, we realized students and landlords both needed something better: a trusted way to connect.

That’s why I started DORMY. My mission is simple: to make housing stress-free for students while helping landlords find tenants they can count on. Every property listed with SureHouse is personally vetted by me to ensure it meets the highest standards for student living — safe, affordable, and reliable.

DORMY isn’t just about listings — it’s about building a network of trusted landlords and student-focused properties that raise the bar for student housing across Cambridge, Kitchener, Waterloo, Guelph, and Brantford. With DORMY, you can be confident you’re not just renting a house — you’re choosing a place you can trust.
