Reading the original article again, I didn't realize that the owners were actually sitting in Calgary the whole time. They basically rented out their home and went to live with their parents just a little bit of cash.
I can totally see people enjoying using the service themselves but I'd have to be REALLY strapped for cash to let people in my house like that. Hell, I'm not sure I'd go back to staying over my parents place for the money alone - forget the renters.
