FAQs for finding live-in caregivers near you

The support that live-in caregivers offer can vary depending on the needs of your senior loved one. For example, some individuals simply need companionship, safety supervision, and assistance with daily activities. Others require more help with hygiene and medical needs such as being reminded to take their medicine. live-in caregivers can also help with transportation needs, cooking, running errands, and light housework.

Most live-in caregivers assist their senior clients with their daily tasks while also providing them with socialization and emotional support. Typically, live-in caregivers help their clients get around the house safely, take care of tasks they struggle with, and provide transportation for appointments or errands. Some live-in caregivers have medical experience and others don’t, so it’s important to think carefully about the type of care your loved one needs before hiring a live-in caregiver so you can find the right fit.

The average rate for hiring a live-in caregiver on Care.com as of August, 2025 is $20.69 per hour. How much each individual caregiver charges can vary and many factors such as your location, the caregiver's level of experience, and the responsibilities they need to take on can all impact the live-in caregiver’s hourly rate.

Care.com makes figuring out how to find a live-in caregiver easy. All you have to do is sort through profiles of live-in caregivers near you to learn more about each caregiver’s level of experience and what types of responsibilities they are happy to take on. You can even read reviews from other families they worked with in the past. You can also look for profiles that display a CareCheck badge, which will list the date their background check was run.

No, live-in caregivers usually don’t pay rent to live-in their client’s home. Both parties can benefit from this arrangement as the caregiver doesn’t have to pay for a place to live and the family has easier access to the care they need. Some caregivers may even charge a lower hourly rate if they have access to free room and board.
