Gabby G was an excellent sitter for my mom who has dementia and was in rehab after breaking her hip. She took the time to fill out reports and enriched my mom’s life by spending quality time with her. She made sure that my mom’s needs were being met at the rehab facility. Bright Star was a very good and reliable service.

We've been very fortunate to have Michael N and Grace B as my Dad's caregivers. These two are the dream team. They go above and beyond to make sure my Dad is well cared for, and they keep me really informed. You couldn't ask for better care

Very pleased with this company. They are always available to answer any questions I may have. Dorothy is my Dad's caregiver and she is great. She is a very caring person and my Dad really likes having her here. She takes very good care of him. We are so grateful to have her.
