Celebrating the Rocca Sisters: A National Sisters Day Tribute

In the spirit of National Sisters Day, let’s take a moment to celebrate the bond shared by Cathy and Tanya Rocca, who have turned their sibling connection into a thriving business partnership. Raised in St. John, N.B., alongside their brother Patrick, Cathy and Tanya grew up immersed in the world of real estate and construction, thanks to their father, Pat Rocca, a prominent figure in the Canadian development industry.

While they each pursued different academic paths—Cathy with a Commerce Degree from McMaster University and Tanya with a degree in Hospitality Management from York University and Humber College—their shared passion for real estate eventually brought them together professionally. In 2008, they founded The Rocca Sisters Team at Royal LePage Burloak Real Estate Services in Burlington, Ontario. Over the past decade, their firm has flourished, ranking among the top Royal LePage teams in Canada.

Cathy and Tanya’s success is rooted in more than just their professional expertise; it’s deeply intertwined with their personal bond. As Cathy notes, “We are first and foremost sisters, best friends, and partners.” Living on the same street and raising their families side by side, the sisters have built a life and career that supports their values of trust, integrity, and mutual respect. They also find joy in giving back to their community, actively supporting local charitable organizations.

Their story is a testament to the strength of sisterhood and the power of shared dreams. As Cathy and Tanya continue to navigate the real estate world together, they embody the essence of what National Sisters Day is all about: celebrating the special bond that sisters share.

In a world where family and business often intersect, the Rocca sisters prove that with a little bit of love, respect, and a lot of hard work, you can achieve great things—together.

Let’s raise a toast to all the sisters who inspire and support each other, both in life and in business.

Happy National Sisters Day!
