James Arnold, Franchise Owner
James Arnold purchased this office in July of 2013 from Bob and Alison Fanelli, who have been franchise owners with Home Instead Senior Care since Sept 2002.
James came in to a well established office, serving nearly 100 seniors in the greater Montgomery and Chester counties.
Before coming to Home Instead Senior Care, James proved to be successful as a Merry Maids franchise owner. He was also an owner/operator of Comphert Homes Land Development.
James wanted to give back to the community and felt strongly that helping seniors live their lives as independently as possible in their later years was the way to go.
He looks forward to continuing in the footsteps of his predecessors and making this office a staple in the community.

Denise Hildenbrand, Co-Owner
Denise's background is in business management and dentistry. Her love for senior care began in 2014 when she left her lifelong career to join her brother as General Manager of his Home Instead franchise. She realized quickly this was her one true passion and purchased a franchise of her own in the latter part of 2014. In Denise's free time she enjoys family, cooking, and gardening.
