Get in Touch
I wanted to send a note about how impressed I was with "our caregiver". My expectations were low based on past experiences with hired caregivers, and now I can never go back because "the companion" was personable, helpful, and knowledgeable. I could not have gotten through this kerfuffle without her. (Transit sent the wrong vehicle, and "the caregiver" was amazing in helping me straighten it out). She stayed later than anticipated to make sure my sister got home safely, and I couldn't be more grateful. We don't need a companion very frequently (maybe once or twice a year), but I am 100% Team Better Together YYC. Sister of client
We are very appreciative of 'our caregiver' caring for our dad and we can't say enough good things about her. 'Our caregiver' is always helping with the little things as well and keeps us abreast of better ways to look after him. Dad always enjoys her visits.

Thank you so very much. We are very appreciative of all that you and the companions do 💝Today was very different day for my mom. What a difference a day makes. She was much more settled and at ease. I appreciate the service you provide; it was truly a success!

'Love, laughter, caring touch, music and friendship. These are her basics and she would want me to give you her heartfelt and cheerful thanks. She would also want me to give you a big bouquet of flowers. 🙂🌻 In her life now, I see people walking down the hall hand in hand with her. I hear her laugh and smile and say ‘I love you!’

You provide great support, that is generous and kind to my mother, and make things convenient, saving me time and money. We both appreciate the services you provide.
