Visiting Angels is truly a place that cares about providing quality care to those in need! All of the caregivers they employ are true quality and genuinely care about their clients. I have had nothing but good experiences with this agency and their caregivers. Plus the office staff is extremely helpful at all times of the day!

They sent an inexperienced person. She burned thw cover onto our new stove on day 1, didnt complete tasks. They asked if we would try again and for one day things went well but then now she didnt clean or move anything to mop. My wife had to clean and fix the beds. Two weeks and almost 1400 dollars!!!! This is horrendous!

We have utilized Visiting Angels for several years to provide my father who is currently 91 with assistance at home. We have had a few different care givers during that time and I am most grateful for the efforts made to find a good match as a caregiver. Our current caregiver is truly our angel and it is a blessing to have her assistance.
