I have been a companion for the elderly since 2012. My caring attitude with the elderly makes their day comfortable and enjoyable. I become their friend. I love to hear their stories and they LOVE to hear mine. Every client of mine have always been amazed by me, when in fact it is I that is amazed by them. We become friends some become family as well as their children and I develop a close friendship. I will care for your parent or elderly family member, friend like they are my own parent. My 92 yr. old mother lives with me as well. I have compassion for children,(I raised 4 boys) animals(4) and the elderly. What is so important for everyone to understand is an elderly person doesn't want to think about what they cant do, they want to enjoy what they can do. Whether its a movie, a book, TV show, cards, going to lunch, church or the doctor. whether they want to take a nap or go to the grocery store, see a friend our job is to make sure they are able to.

I've known Lisa for almost 40 years. I have watched her raise her family basically single handed and all 4 of her young men have turned out to be wonderfully respectful successful men. Lisa has helped me with my children as well while I was experiencing challenges as well. my children adore her as well like a 2nd mom. Lisa Her love for animals is beyond anyone I've ever experienced before. Her ability to handle an extremely busy schedule is remarkable and very admirable!! Lisa always puts other people's needs in front of her own. She's extremely honest and from what I have seen and heard the elderly that she cares for love her. I can't imagine a better person you can trust to take care of your loved ones including your pets, than Lisa.
