2-3 Female roommates – Washington, DC
Steinhaus: 2 Rooms for Rent as of August 1st in Brookland, DC
Hello! We are looking for 2-3 female, young adult roommates to join us starting August 1, in Brookland, DC. It’s a great location, just a 10-minute walk from CUA, Brookland Metro, Basilica and Dominican House, Trader Joe’s, Chipotle, Starbucks, and more. Just 2 blocks away from the Metropolitan Branch Trail (MBT). The apartment is a newly built 4-story row house, well-equipped, with new kitchen appliances, an outdoor deck, a two-car garage, lots of light, and a pretty view.
Two rooms are available:
Topfloor bedroom: $1070 + utilities. Large closet, two storage cubbies, and a shared bathroom.
Master bedroom: $1737 + utilities. Private bath + parking spot in the garage. In the past, this room has been shared and the rent split in half (for about $893[includes garage spot] & $843). It also comes with its own parking space in the garage. This room has two closets and a large double-sinked bathroom. If you have a friend you’d like to share with, this is perfect for you. Happy to accommodate one person if that’s what you prefer.
About us: we are two practicing Catholics and graduate students at CUA. We’re pretty busy with school, but enjoying being sociable and having friends over, etc.
Please reach out if you are interested or have questions!

Babysitting Exchange for Female Tenant- Hyattsville, MD
My husband Nathaniel and I are seeking a Catholic female tenant who can help with our home and children 10-12 hours a week in exchange for room and board.
Available for the academic year, either starting over summer or starting in late August 2026-May 2027.
We live in Hyattsville, Maryland, within walking distance to St. Jerome’s Catholic Church and a close commute for Catholic U.
We have four children, ages 9, 6, 4 and 1.5 years old. We are looking for a Catholic woman who can ideally provide childcare and help prepare or clean up from meals on an agreed upon schedule based on both of our needs.
The bedroom is a bright, recently renovated space in our basement with a semi-private bathroom (we do use it occasionally during the day). The rest of the living space (laundry, kitchen, etc.) is shared.
We can furnish the room or the tenant may bring her own items. All utilities and internet are included. Should availability change, we can negotiate a rate to pay some rent in order to lessen hours.
