Testimonials From Families I’ve Helped

« Recently, I sought the help of one of your advisors: Mrs. Catherine Dubuc! She was such a great help, a great listener, and showed wonderful empathy. She answered my questions and reassured me, because when we go through a difficult situation with our parents, we lose our bearings and greatly need this kind of support! I would recommend her without any hesitation. Thank you so much! » 

– Renée M.

« Hello, I wanted to take a moment to thank Catherine for her exceptional support during the search for a residence for my mother, Monique, who lives in Quebec and will be moving to Laval. From the start, Catherine was very understanding of the fact that we needed to visit once without my mother and then go back with her. She quickly understood our needs and responded very promptly to our requests. Her instructions were always very clear, which made the process easier. She was present during the visits and also at the lease signing. Her contagious good mood made this project a truly positive experience. I would recommend Catherine to my friends without hesitation. Thank you for everything. »

Through her availability, professionalism, gentleness, and calm demeanor, she gave us the confidence to make an informed decision for my aunt’s well-being.

“I would like to thank you for the wonderful work you did in finding an RPA for my 96-year-old mother. A big THANK YOU to Catherine Dubuc for her professionalism, dynamism, rigor, and perseverance. Thanks to Catherine, we found a residence in record time. My mother had been in the hospital for more than two months, and it was clear she could no longer return to her condominium. In less than two weeks, Catherine presented us with three residences, and we ultimately chose Borea by Groupe Maurice.”

– N. Felton

“By chance, I crossed paths with Catherine at a red light on the road and called her to share our situation. An angel sent from heaven!!

Thank you life for putting the sweet and wonderful Catherine on my path that morning.”

We are all very satisfied with the residence we chose and the personalized service we received from Catherine.”

“Hello, After a surprise hospitalization (as many are), my mother could no longer live alone safely. Appui-Laval informed me about VISAVIE, housing advisors. What a precious help! The emotional weight of this intense and difficult situation was greatly relieved when we were paired with CATHERINE DUBUC: an angel who came to our rescue! Very professional and, above all, empathetic, after asking a few questions to assess our needs, she took charge of scheduling appointments at three residences not far from my home and accompanied me during the visits. Always very attentive, patient, and organized, I felt in good hands. Mom signed her lease yesterday. 😀 What an essential service, truly! Bravo and especially thank you, Catherine! Forever grateful.”

– Carole G.

“I would like to highlight the exemplary work of Ms. Catherine Dubuc, who supported me in a situation that was truly difficult for me. I had to find a place for my father very quickly, within a 7-day deadline, and especially near my mother who was already in a residence. Catherine was always there and attentive to my needs. Trust this woman who knows how to make us feel confident and who accompanies us until the very end.”

– Josée W.

“Dear Catherine, a little note to express all my gratitude for accompanying me so well through this important transition in my life, which is happening at a somewhat overwhelming pace! But don’t worry about me… I feel ready! Your presence and that of Stéphanie have reassured me greatly, and you can be certain that if anyone in my circle were to undertake a similar process, I would recommend they call you without hesitation. I hope I will have the chance to see you again one of these days! … during another visit to Les Verrières, who knows? A big, big thank you for everything!”
