I also want families to know the professional care that they get and have in there with their loved one as I said I have everything in writing and furnish to anyone when I met you thanks, LISA.

Lisa and her group of ladies have done an excellent job caring for my wife 24/7 while I have to be out of town.  Not only have they managed to achieve things that my wife wouldn't let me help with in terms of personal hygiene, they have also had tremendous results healing a long-term wound that she keeps picking at whenever it got close to healing.  Neither I nor her doctors were able to heal this wound, previously.  If you need help with someone that has advanced dementia, don't hesitate contacting Lisa ... absolutely no regrets on my part.

After my dad got out of rehab, we wanted him close to family, so we had him come stay with us. We honestly didn’t know where to start and felt pretty overwhelmed trying to figure out his care.



Finding Lisa was such a relief. She got involved right away and helped us put 24/7 care in place almost immediately. That alone took a huge weight off our shoulders.



Lisa is very knowledgeable, especially with wound care, and we felt comfortable with her from the start. She even helped us get set up with everything we needed, bringing supplies like wipes, diapers, a wheelchair, and a walker, which made things so much easier during a stressful time.



The caregivers she has sent have all been so kind, polite, and helpful. They take care of everything my dad needs, from hygiene to meal prep and daily care, and they treat him with so much respect.



Lisa has truly gone above and beyond. She’s even stayed overnight when needed, and she’s been there for anything that comes up. It’s clear she really cares, and that means everything to us.



We just wanted the best care for my dad, and we’re so thankful we found her.

Lisa has been caring for my wife who has mild dementia and a schizoaffective disorder. Lisa is absolutely a "Godsent" to our family. She is warm, attentive, reliable and always goes out of her way to make my wife feel comfortable and safe. You won't find anyone better than Lisa.

We would strongly recommend Lisa as a caring and skilled provider. Lisa immediately bonded with the family and our wheelchair bound father in need of care.  She is skilled in all aspects of care and is a very thorough and thoughtful person.  She not only cared for him but also gave so many amazing recommendations and insight into how to better care for him moving forward.  We plan to use her often and can’t wait to hire her again!  

Lisa cared for our wheelchair bound father. She immediately connected with him and the family.  We would 100% recommend her.  Her skills were top notch but more so she was kind and caring and extremely knowledgeable.  She gave us great advice on how to make his life simpler and make him more independent.  After years of caring for him she taught us so much we wish we knew years ago. 

Lisa has been an incredible caregiver for my mother, who has Alzheimer's and requires special care. My mother responds wonderfully to her, which says everything. Lisa is patient, attentive, and a great communicator who keeps our family informed and at ease. We are so thankful to have her!

Lisa was immediately available at a critical juncture in the elderly care of a couple. Because of the challenging dynamics at the home of the couple, Lisa managed herself and team with compassion and patience.

Lisa was a LIFESAVER for our family when my mother-in-law was sick for over a month and we found out her cancer was back.  Since my husband and I live out of state and have young kids, we knew that we needed additional support since my father-in-law was not emotionally or physically able to properly care of her or have productive conversations with the medical staff. 

I found Lisa through Care.com and she went out of her way to come meet me in Jacksonville before my flight home and Lisa was also able to meet my mother-in-law at her in-patient rehab facility in Jacksonville. My mother-in-law felt instantly comforted when Lisa shared how she can support her through her medical appointments and home-care (i.e. including washing her hair) when she was physically strong enough to leave in-patient rehab to head home to start her chemo treatments. Lisa even noticed that my mother-in-law’s foot was swollen with water retention and jumped right into adjusting the bed position and propping pillows to help. Within 20 minutes, my mother-in-law’s foot looked less swollen and she was thankful for Lisa’s direction and help. 

After being in the hospitals / inpatient rehab facilities for over a month, my mother-in-law was told that her body was not strong enough to do chemo. So instead of hiring Lisa for 4 hours a day as we had initially planned when she started chemo treatments, we had to completely shift gears and hire Lisa for 24/7 care as my mother-in-law asked to spend her final days at home and not in the hospital. 

Lisa became the primary caretaker for my mother-in-law at the apartment, helping with food, water, medicine, coordinating with hospice, etc. She gave frequent updates to my husband and I while we were out-of-state, and also assisted during the times that we were able to come down to help be there in-person, including helping us find someone to help deliver a wheelchair, shower seat, hospital grade bed, etc. for my mother-in-law to use at the apartment. 

Lisa helped our family through a very difficult period, and we are so thankful that she has the knowledge and patience to help with elderly care, especially for the final stages. My father-in-law was so grateful for Lisa and said having her to help with my mother-in-law allowed him to focus on just being with my mother-in-law and grieve. 

Lisa has such a pure heart and builds connections fast given her easy nature. Even when emotions ran high with family members, she was always calm, despite getting very little sleep during the 4 1/2 days that my mother-in-law was home under hospice care. She worked great with the hospice team as well, and they were thankful for her knowledge and attention to detail in documenting times of medications. 

If you need help with your loved ones, especially if you live out-of-state from them, you will lucky to have Lisa as part of your support system!  

Wow! 
I don’t know where to start Lisa is a wonderful understanding down to earth trustworthy women .

I cannot say enough good things about Lisa and her incredible team and the care they provided to my grandfather during one of the most difficult and emotional times in our family’s life. My grandfather was on hospice, required a feeding tube, and needed total care. His needs were complex, constant, and deeply personal—and Lisa and her workers handled every aspect with exceptional professionalism, compassion, and dignity.

From the very beginning, it was clear that Lisa and her staff were not just doing a job; they genuinely cared about my grandfather as a person. They treated him with patience, respect, and kindness at all times, even when the care was physically demanding or emotionally heavy. Total care is not easy, yet they never made him feel like a burden. Instead, they ensured he was always clean, comfortable, and positioned properly, paying close attention to even the smallest details that affected his comfort and well-being.

Managing his feeding tube and hospice-related needs required skill and vigilance, and Lisa’s team was outstanding in this area. They handled his tube feedings carefully and responsibly, followed proper procedures, and remained attentive to any changes in his condition. Their knowledge and experience gave our family peace of mind, knowing he was in capable hands and being monitored closely. If there were concerns, they communicated clearly and promptly, always keeping us informed and involved.

What truly set Lisa and her workers apart was the compassion they showed not only to my grandfather, but to our entire family. They understood how emotionally overwhelming this time was for us and offered reassurance, kindness, and support when we needed it most. They treated my grandfather with dignity in every interaction—speaking to him gently, explaining what they were doing, and ensuring he was never rushed or handled carelessly.

Even during the most challenging moments, Lisa and her team remained calm, attentive, and respectful. They created a sense of trust and comfort that is incredibly rare and invaluable when caring for someone at the end of life. Knowing that my grandfather was surrounded by people who truly cared for him allowed us, as a family, to focus on spending meaningful time with him instead of constantly worrying about his care.

I will always be grateful for the dedication, empathy, and professionalism Lisa and her workers showed during my grandfather’s hospice journey. They went above and beyond in every way, and their care made a profound difference in his quality of life and in our family’s experience during an incredibly difficult time. I wholeheartedly recommend Lisa and her team to anyone seeking compassionate, reliable, and truly exceptional care for their loved one.

Lisa was an absolute blessing to our family. She cared for my elderly father for eight months during an incredibly difficult chapter of his life, right through his passing, and I can honestly say we could not have asked for better care. She was dependable, gentle, and consistently professional, but more than that—she treated my dad with genuine love, dignity, and respect every single day.

Lisa quickly became someone we trusted completely. She communicated clearly, was always on time, and never hesitated to go the extra mile—whether that meant staying a little longer, coordinating with hospice and medical staff, or just sitting with my dad so he was never alone. She noticed the small things, anticipated his needs, and kept him as comfortable and calm as possible.

In those final days, Lisa supported not just my father, but our whole family. She guided us through moments that were emotionally overwhelming with kindness and steadiness, and her presence made a heartbreaking time more bearable. I would recommend Lisa and Lisa Cares without hesitation to any family looking for truly compassionate, reliable, and heartfelt care for their loved one.
