Sending visit updates and photos through our app
Following each client’s detailed care instructions
Bringing in mail or packages
Adjusting lights, blinds, or trash/recycling when requested
Administering medication when within your experience and comfort level

Service Types

Drop-ins: 30 / 45 / 60 minutes (1–3x daily)
Extended daytime visits: 2-8 hours
Overnights: 10-hour stays

Pay & Perks

Weekly direct deposit
Bonus opportunities (holidays, short notice, strong feedback)
100% of tips go to you

Apply

Apply through our quick, mobile-friendly application.

Notes:

Apply to one location only
