CareMatch Marketplace
A trusted helper for the everyday — matched to your loved one.
Groceries, rides, tidying, meals, company. Pick a verified local helper by name and face, book by the hour, and keep the same friendly person week after week.
Why families choose the marketplace
Booking help at home shouldn't feel like hiring a stranger. It should feel like meeting someone your neighbor already trusts.
You choose the person
Read real profiles, see rates, watch a short intro video, and pick the helper who feels right.
Verified before day one
ID confirmed, background checked, references called, and re-checked every month they stay on the platform.
Book by the hour, no contracts
One visit or every Tuesday morning — you decide. Reschedule or cancel free up to 24 hours before.
Consistency you can feel
We prioritize the same helper week after week, so trust builds and the home stays predictable.
What a CareMatch helper can do
Every helper picks the tasks they're best at. Some focus on errands and rides. Some love cooking and cleaning. Many do a warm mix. You'll see exactly what each person offers — and their rate — before you book.
Grocery & errands
Weekly shopping, curbside pickup, groceries unpacked and put away — even the heavy stuff.
Rides & appointments
A friendly driver to the doctor, pharmacy, salon, or bank — and a waiting hand at the curb.
House cleaning & laundry
Weekly tidying, seasonal deep cleans, fresh linens, and floors that feel like home again.
Friendly visits
Conversation over coffee, a walk around the block, cards on the porch — company that shows up.
Meal prep
Shop the list, cook the favorites, portion for the week, and leave the kitchen better than they found it.
Medication reminders
A gentle, non-clinical prompt at the right time — plus a quick text home to say all's well.
Handyman & yard
Lightbulbs, smoke alarms, sticky drawers, and lawn edges — small fixes that keep the home safe.
Tech help
Setting up FaceTime with the grandkids, Wi-Fi that finally works, and phones that stop misbehaving.
Pet care
Walks, feedings, vet trips, and grooming — because the dog is family, too.
A little help, right where you need it
For Grandma who lives alone
A Tuesday morning cleaning, a Thursday afternoon grocery run, and a Sunday walk — always with the same familiar face.
For the daughter three states away
Real-time updates when your mom's helper arrives, a quick note after every visit, and a phone we always answer.
For Dad who's just home from the hospital
A few weeks of extra hands: laundry, meals, and rides to follow-ups — while he gets his strength back.

Questions families ask
- How is CareMatch different from a big-name care app?
- You see the exact person before you book — not just a category. Every provider is verified continuously, not just once at sign-up. And a real person answers our phone, day or night.
- What if the first match isn't right?
- Say the word and we'll match you with someone else — no fees, no awkward conversations. Fit matters, and we'd rather you find the right person than the first person.
- Do providers bring their own supplies?
- Most cleaning and cooking helpers use what's already in the home (older adults usually prefer their familiar products). You can also request eco-friendly or unscented options when booking.
- Can I add family members to see visits and messages?
- Yes. Invite a spouse, sibling, or adult child to your family dashboard — they'll see visit confirmations, updates from the helper, and messages, always with your loved one's permission.
A note on what marketplace helpers do. Marketplace helpers focus on non-medical help — companionship, cleaning, meals, rides, and errands. For hands-on personal care like bathing and transfers, see CareMatch Partners. For skilled nursing or therapy, see CareMatch Healthcare.
