Have you cared for close family members, relatives, or other loved ones? Join a team that teaches you skills to become a professional caregiver (CarePro). We’ll involve you in activities and training that will continue to help you develop your skills, or provide refresher training, if you already have caregiver experience. And, you’ll build wonderful relationships with our clients and provide valuable services within your community as well.

We work with CarePros and clients to most appropriately match you with clients, as shifts are scheduled. Our goal is to establish recurring schedules for our CarePros, if that’s important to you. And, we also have the ability to work with those who need more flexibility in their shift schedules. **We are hiring for both day and night shifts!**
Our pay scale is very competitive within the home care industry and there may be opportunities for advancement. Current CarePro Pay Rates range up to $14.00 per hour for weekday shifts ($15.00 for weekends) based on a CarePro’s Skills Tier -- described further below.
