After 20 years of working, raising kids, and living in Wisconsin, they have returned to their home state  of Minnesota!

“We are excited to be serving clients in the Ottertail County area! We can assist the senior in your life with companionship, homemaker tasks, hands on personal care, and many other home care services. We place a high priority on matching our CAREGivers with the client. We believe that relationships based on trust must be established. The bond that develops is one that fosters independence, promotes well-being, and supports the senior's needs with dignity. We are your eyes and your ears. And we do it all with the utmost of care and compassion. We will offer a free in-home consultation with you and your loved ones to arrange for the most appropriate care.”

Josh and Kim both enjoy spending time with their kids Duncan and Kate, black lab Emmy, and their extended families. You can also find us doing many outside activities from hunting and fishing to hiking and biking.”
