What the job actually is
You spend time with an older adult in their own home, and help the day go smoothly. In practice that looks like:
- Caring companionship — conversation, cards, a walk, a favourite show
- Meal preparation — cooking something they actually like
- Help around the house — light housekeeping, laundry, dishes
- Errands & shopping — groceries, picking things up
- Pet care — meals and walks for a much-loved dog or cat
- Overnight presence — simply being there so nobody is alone
Mostly, it is showing up when you said you would, and being good company.
And what it is not
This is non-medical companion and homemaker work only. Our Florida registration does not permit hands-on care, so our caregivers never help with bathing, dressing, toileting, feeding, or lifting and transferring someone. We don’t provide nursing or medical care, and caregivers don’t drive clients in their own vehicles.
If hands-on care is the work you want, that is real and badly needed work — it simply isn’t what our registration covers. Say so and we’ll gladly point you toward agencies that do it.
What we look for
Experience with seniors is welcome, but genuinely not required. What we can’t teach is reliability and warmth. If you turn up when you said you would, treat people with dignity, and would look after a client the way you’d want your own grandmother looked after, we can teach you the rest.
What we offer
- W-2 employment — a real job, never 1099 contractor paperwork
- Competitive hourly pay, discussed openly at your interview
- Flexible shifts built around your life — part-time or more
- An owner who answers the phone. Kristina does the scheduling herself.
What’s required
- 18 or over, and legally authorised to work in the United States
- Reliable transport to get yourself to and from shifts
- A Level 2 background screening through the AHCA Care Provider Clearinghouse before your first shift. It is fingerprint-based, done at a Livescan location, and usually costs about $50–$100. We’ll walk you through it.
We ask nothing on this form about your age, health, family, background, or Social Security number. If we move forward, the screening above is handled properly and privately — never through a web form.
