Description
We are a couple with two kids and two hypoallergenic dogs looking for a sabbatical home exchange in France for 2027-2028. We live in Toronto, Canada, in a very beautiful area by Lake Ontario called 'the Beaches' (or the 'Beach', depending on who you ask). We work at the hospital downtown and have academic appointments at the University of Toronto. We would love to ideally exchange with another family in France.

House Sitting
I am looking for help while I am away
I would like help with mail and deliveries
We will have a relative take any mail that still arrives but would need someone to place mail in a box for her to collect at prearranged intervals.
I would like help with plants or garden
We have a front and back garden as well as house plants. It's mostly watering the house plants that would be needed.

What We Are Looking for
Pet
I am bringing my pet
Smoking
I prefer smoking not allowed in the home
Allergies
Allergies are a concern
Car
I would like a car if possible
Comments: We have a cat allergy so unfortunately can't exchange with families who have cats. We have a car that we can exchange with the house and it would be convenient if that was a possibility with the exchange on both sides.

Comments: We are ideally looking for a family who desires a home exchange during the academic/school year 2027/28. We are planning to move to France (with our dogs, which are non-shedding and hypoallergenic), preferably near the Swiss border.
