We’re currently looking for a Part Time Care Companion in Denver, CO 80236
A lovely family in Fort Logan/Southwest Denver seeks a part time care companion for their 71-year-old mother for an immediate start. Care will be needed for the next 3–6 months, on Mondays and/or Tuesdays from 8:00 AM to 1:30 PM. The client experienced a stroke in February 2025 and has limited mobility on her right side. She uses a walker and is diabetic; the caregiver will need to check her blood sugar once per week. A friendly, medium-sized dog lives in the home and may bark occasionally — no pet care is required beyond basic feeding and refilling water as needed. The ideal caregiver is energetic, adventurous, and engaging, and will provide meaningful companionship while supporting the client’s independence.
