How is social companionship different from care?
Social companionship focuses on genuine connection, conversation, and emotional support. It's about providing meaningful companionship rather than hands-on care.

Visits can be arranged as frequently as you'd like—weekly, twice weekly, or more often. We're flexible and responsive to your needs.
How long are visits?
Visits typically last 1-2 hours, but can be adjusted to suit your preferences and needs.
What if I don't feel comfortable with my companion?
We want you to feel comfortable and enjoy your companionship. If for any reason the match isn't right, we'll find a better companion for you.
Can my companion help with practical tasks?
