Get Started
Our Housemates are individuals who genuinely seek companionship with their Host. Many of them don't have family in the area and are excited about the opportunity to integrate into their Host’s household.
We intentionally limit the assistance hours of assistance our Housemates provide. This strategy makes the role attractive and high-paying, helping us attract the best fit for your home. It’s not just about the quantity of hours; it’s about finding someone who resonates with your intellectual curiosity, interests, or hobbies, fostering a deep and meaningful bond.
Our diverse pool of Housemates includes professionals and mature students from all age groups and various backgrounds, such as graduates from universities like Duke, UT Austin, and Austin Community College. They range from retirees to teachers, nursing students, and Tesla engineers, all in search of a safe housing environment, a well-paying part-time job, and the chance to do meaningful work.
To get a clearer idea of who you might be matched with, we invite you to read profiles of some of our Housemates currently living with Hosts near Austin. Please note that certain details are withheld for privacy.

Companionship
While there are numerous care options available, very few address the issue of loneliness or offer the continuous companionship that comes from sharing one's living space. We strive to pair you with a Housemate who has a compatible personality for meaningful companionship.
Minimize Coordination Time
You no longer have to find and hire people for the tasks you want help with. Your Housemate lives with you and does all the hours of support themselves.
