Companion Care in Los Angeles

Companion care in Los Angeles through Right at Home means a caregiver comes to your family member's home to help with everyday life: light housekeeping, good company, outings and reminders. Our offices are in Pasadena and West Covina/Covina, and Los Angeles is one of the cities we send caregivers to. You don't need to travel anywhere.

The first step is a free visit at home. Call (626) 678-8826 and we'll talk through what your parent or spouse needs.

How the first visit works for Los Angeles families

We come to you. Here is how it goes:

You callWe start by asking about your loved one's wishes and needs.
We visit the homeWe look at basic needs and the home environment. The visit is free, and it helps decide what care is needed.
We write a care planIt reflects your loved one's history, routines and preferences. We go through it with your family in detail and change it as you wish.
We match a caregiverMore on that below.

How soon the first visit can happen depends on scheduling, so ask when you call. To get started, see how to start care.

Finding a companion caregiver in Los Angeles you can trust

Letting someone into your parent's home is a big step. Every caregiver is bonded and insured and goes through background and reference checks. Read more about how we choose caregivers.

We match by interests, personality and the services needed, so the person who arrives is a considered fit rather than whoever is free. If your family isn't satisfied, one phone call gets a new caregiver matched.

Language can matter a great deal too. According to the Census Bureau's QuickFacts, 56.4% of people age 5 and older in the City of Los Angeles spoke a language other than English at home (2020-2024). If your parent is more comfortable in another language, mention it on your first call.

The office team behind your caregiver

A caregiver's visits are only part of the picture. Behind them is an office team, including Linda Gonzalez, our Billing & Payroll Specialist, and Christopher Wong, our VP of Operations.

That team works from our Pasadena and West Covina/Covina offices and supports the caregivers who come to homes in Los Angeles.

Cost and choosing an agency

Cost depends on your family's situation, so we talk it through after the free visit. Find the details on our cost page, and see paying for care for how families pay.

When you compare agencies, ask about caregiver screening, insurance, how matches are made and what happens if the fit is wrong. Our answers are above, and more are on the FAQ page. You can also see the other cities we serve on our service areas page.
