Companion Care Needed For My Mother In Philadelphia

About the job

About who needs care: I'm looking for a few hours of help a week for my mother. She lives alone and has ME (aka Chronic Fatigue Syndrome). This means that she has limited energy and physical capacity and needs intermittent help with tasks like laundry, taking out trash/recycling, moving items around the house, and other miscellaneous tasks. Potentially also dog-walking, but that's flexible. Ideally this would be 3-5 hours a week on various days. About the care needs: An empathetic and patient approach would be really helpful. My mom's capacity to do tasks changes week to week, so an attitude of flexibility and good communication about her changing needs is also plus. Services needed include: meal preparation, errands / shopping, light housekeeping, and companionship.
