In-Home Companion Services for Elders
About our Companion Care
Companion care is a non-medical assistance designed to provide emotional support, social interaction, and help with daily living activities to older adults. Unlike medical care, companion care focuses on improving the quality of life by offering companionship and practical help with everyday tasks, such as:
- Social Interaction: Engaging in conversation, playing games, or participating in hobbies.
- Errands and Transportation: Assistance with grocery shopping, doctor’s appointments, or recreational outings.
- Light Household Help: Tasks like meal preparation, light cleaning, and laundry.
- Emotional Support: Providing a listening ear and companionship to reduce feelings of loneliness or isolation.

A Letter From Our Founder
"I (Jordan Owens) stand by my word that I will never place a caregiver in your home that I would not trust to care for my own mother (and I really love my mother). Sincerely, I will sooner come in person to care for you or your loved one before lowering the standard of care. Therefore, I personally speak with every client before connecting them with a certified caregiver."
