Karen’s Bio

I have little paid professional experience being a caregiver but I helped my mom a lot during some time when she was 40-55+ including being her secretary for her small businesses.
I lived with my grandparents for a year and got a lot of experience from that. I also spent a lot of time with my grandma in law in California when I lived with my husbands family.
I am very patient and can help with a lot.
I am able to run errands, help with pets, plants, housekeeping, driving, and help with other basic needs that companions usually do.

Experiences and Responsibilities: feeding, helping them when they get up or move around home, remind them to use walker, engage in conversation, help them engage in hands on activites, watch them play video games, help them cook and meal prep, get them and serve them water/drinks/ food, help them with household chores, help with Physical Therapy

I've been driving since I was 16 so I am very careful when driving and I'm saving up to get dash cam.

I'm a responsible, patient and caring person who loves helping others.

I don't do drugs, other than marijuana (mostly edibles, not smoking). I do not drink and I don't enjoy partying or clubbing so there won't be days where I call sick from a hangover.

I currently work as a companion for an elderly person and I'm not available Wed,Sat & Sun. It's a bit of a drive when there's traffic. That's why I'm looking for a job near me and pay that is weekly. Pay rate can be less depending on location!
I speak spanish, english and enjoy video games, blogging, kpop, and spending time with my husband and my cat.
