Duties include mobility support, meal prep, med reminders, daily vitals, hygiene, and dressing help, morning/evening routines, companionship, light housekeeping, and care for her sweet small dog.

This is a warm, happy, respectful household, and we value open communication. The schedule may vary but is typically Tues, Wed, Thurs, and /or Fri. 3 p.m. -7:30 a.m. , and 9 a.m. -4 p.m. every other Sunday. Pay is $18/hour, with overtime ($27/hour) for over 40 hours per week.
