About The Perfect Caregiver For Me

Built on Real Experience
in Senior Care

Finding the right caregiver is one of the most personal decisions a family or care home owner will make. Our team built this service from the inside — we've lived the operational side of senior care, and we know what's at stake when the fit isn't right.

"The goal is not just to find a caregiver. The goal is to find the right one for that specific home, family, or resident."

The Perfect Caregiver For Me was created because our founder, Shay Mixon, lived the problem firsthand. With years of experience in residential senior care operations, caregiver recruiting, and home care placement, we understand what families and care home owners are really up against.

This is a personal service — not a call center, not a portal. Shay reviews every intake, our team screens every caregiver, and we stay involved through the first week of every placement.

FAQ

Common Questions

No. The Perfect Caregiver For Me is a screening, matching, and placement service. We source and introduce candidates — the client makes the final hiring decision and pays the caregiver directly. We are not the caregiver's legal employer.
If the caregiver leaves or isn't a reasonable fit within the first 7 days, we make a good-faith effort to provide one replacement candidate at no additional charge — provided the caregiver was paid as agreed and home expectations were clearly communicated.
Yes, a placement fee applies. Contact us directly — by phone, text, or email — and we'll walk you through the details based on your specific placement needs. The placement fee is separate from the caregiver's compensation, which you negotiate and pay directly to the caregiver.
Yes. Background checks are part of our screening process. However, licensed care homes in Texas are independently required to run their own checks before a caregiver begins work — our check is a screening step, not a substitute for your compliance obligation.
Live-in caregivers typically earn $2,000–$4,000/month depending on number of residents, care level, and experience required. Weekend and relief caregivers typically run $250–$300/day. Actual pay is negotiated directly between client and caregiver.
Yes. We maintain a pool of screened candidates available on short notice. For urgent needs, call or text 346-306-2566 directly for the fastest response.
