When my wife Victoria and I were considering starting our own company we talked about the "organizational culture" of the company as much as we did about what type of business we wanted to start. Since both of us had extensive experience in Senior Living Communities, we were confident that a Senior Home Care business was a perfect match for us.
If you cannot stay at home due to cost or nursing needs, then consider staying in a Longhouse! We offer vibrant Adult Family Homes that provide dementia-focused care and care for other chronic conditions. Longhouse Adult Family Homes have round the clock awake staff, two person transfers, intensive nursing support and more.
They provide New and Used good clean Durable Medical Equipment and Mobility Equipment for a suggested donation. Husky Senior Care's mission is to help seniors stay at home. Here is a great resource for adaptive clothing. Get clothing that works for you instead of against you. Remove the obstacles to staying at home! Welcome to Buck & Buck, Your Home for Adaptive Clothing.

The need for in-home caregivers has really gone up since the pandemic. With higher demand, it is definitely more challenging than usual to find good, reliable, decent, caring help for your loved ones. The hiring process has been scary and frustrating for me, since it is extremely expensive to pay for care. There isn't a reliable guidebook on how to find great care for your loved ones, I had to learn by doing and suffering through bad caregivers. What I learned is there are at least 2 business models/2 types of agencies: one that contracts out the work (like the uber model) and do

I can’t say enough great things about Husky Care! If I could give them 10 stars I would. The wonderful women who worked with us when our sister was in hospice were so kind and caring and went out of their way to help us with whatever we needed for her care. Kudos to Juliana and Sarah- all whom were so professional, listened well and were well coordinated to give our sister Sally the best care in her last days. Losing a loved one is so difficult but what a comfort they were to us! We could not have asked for better staff.. They were all truly a blessing!

Husky Senior Care was very helpful and understanding. My Aunt had reached a point where she no longer could manage on her own and HSC provided a good quality of life for her. We had researched other options and companies but found HSC to be the best fit. The quality of care, professionalism of the caregivers and the overall assistance for both of us was stellar. They were always available by phone or email and always let us know before any changes were made to my Aunt's routine. They arrived on time each day and stayed until my Aunt was settled in the evening, even if that met staying a little

The mission of Husky Senior Care is to help seniors (and their families) age at home successfully. If your loved one wants to stay in their home, Husky Senior Care is designed to support them. They are amazing at implementing this mission.
Our father (a 94 year old retired UW professor) suffered from progressive dementia, and wanted to live out his life in ‘his old home’. Our family of three sibling’s along with two private caregivers had managed to keep Dad safe and fulfilled for several years. By the third year, the load was growing beyond our ability and energies.

My mother has been using Husky Senior Care for about two years. She and I have been very happy with the service. My mother looks to her Husky care giver for help with basic house keeping, grocery shopping, cooking, and other everyday tasks. Maybe as important, her Husky care giver provides welcome companionship on the two days a week that she is there. I’ve seen their relationship blossom. It’s great that my mom now has a new friend as well as somebody fo help with the household chores. Her helpers have been very reliable too. They are almost always there on time and very rarely call in sick

I can't say enough good things about Husky senior care. I'm especially grateful to Kris, our care manager. Kris and her great caregivers helped my family get through the last few very difficult years. My husband was diagnosed with brain cancer four years ago and became paralyzed after the surgery and needed 24/7 care. I needed professional care during the day so I could go to work. I tried a couple other home care companies but unfortunately that didn't work out for various reasons. A hospital social worker recommended Husky. Jennifer came over for the first visit. I was very impressed

I cannot say enough good things about Husky senior care. After having a less than stellar experience with a different care company last year, I was hesitant to hire a new company to help care for my grandparents. Last month both of my grandparents were placed on hospice care, and as their primary caregiver I needed respite care 5 hours a day to be able to work still. From start to finish, Husky has been great. Our care manager and the 2 caregivers we had were extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and went above and beyond anything I expected. I appreciate the efforts to ensure safety, as well as the

I'm a health care professional in hospice, and a huge part of my job is helping patients and families obtain quality and affordable private caregivers to supplement the care that the family is providing for their loved one. Husky, a smaller and caring agency, recently came into a very challenging situation with a frail very elderly couple, and despite their resistance to accepting outside care, Husky has completely won them over.
Unlike some other care agencies that i've worked with,Husky not only comes in and provides a free consult with a care manager, they CONTINUE to have the managers

We have had 'Husky Senior Care' provide caregivers for my husband for the last 2+ years. We've had primarily two caregivers over this period of time, with the exception of a brief interim turnover issue-- (which did require re-training individuals ). Thankfully, this was resolved relatively easily with the help of the Care Manager, and owner Matt. The main two primary caregivers have been exceptional, and provide transportation to various appointments, meal preparation, and light housekeeping on a regular basis, (including dog walks). We are definitely pleased with Husky Sr. Care

As upset as I am right now, you would think I'd give negative stars, but being an honest person, I want to acknowledge that we have had several very sweet caregivers. Unfortunately that is the crux of the problem.
My parents, 90 & 93, have been clients of Husky off and on for a few years. We loved using a local company and appreciated that Matt came out himself initially to meet and talk about Husky. The problem has been that Husky has a hard time keeping a consistent workforce and there have been multiple changes in the caregiver assigned to take care of our parents. This is especially

I sustained a bone bruise (partial fracture) to my ankle and my husband works long days and I have no family in the area who can help me out with daily activities. After months of a long rehabilitation process, I was feeling overwhelmed, and I reluctantly reached out for help.
Matt himself, the business owner, answered the phone at the business, which I was impressed by. He treated me with the kindness, compassion and attentiveness that he would have if I was his own family member.

Husky Senior Care served my Brother, who was cared for in his home with ALS for more than 4 years. Husky Care provided us with live in 24 hour care throughout this horrible disease until the moment of his death. Throughout the 4 years, Matt and his staff were available for us and Matt especially was always involved when needed. If I needed something, I could always call or email him and he always had time to listen and respond no matter if it was after hours or on weekends. I did not have to talk with an "after hours" person, I was able to call Matt who was keenly aware of our needs and my brothers

My mom is able to stay in her own home but receive extra care a few hours a week, thanks to Husky Senior Care. The rates are reasonable and my mother is flourishing. They help her bathe, do laundry and light cleaning, and take her to doctor appointments. Normally I am at work when she needs this help, so it has been a huge relief to find Husky Senior Care. I highly recommend them for families that have a loved one that is getting frail but wants to continue to live at home.

I choose husky senior care to take care of my mom because they were close to her house. The owner of the business is a very caring person as is his wife who works in the company and provides care. I had a bad experience though the care person left my mom alone in the midle of the night my mom could no longer assist herself out of bed so she was totaly dependent on me during the day and and the care provider at night well the care provider just left her alone and locked the door so if there would have been a fire she would have been stuck in the house....

I cannot say enough good things about Husky Senior Care. My mother was living in an independent apartment in a retirement community. She suddenly took ill and need additional care. Matt came the next day and set up care. My mother then had to move to the health care facility. Husky health care was so flexible with my mothers needs. When she moved back to her apartment they were there again providing care. Her care giver Michelle was unbelievable. Positive, fun, engaging, helpful, proactive with care... my mom loved her.

Husky Senior Care provided outstanding service when our family faced an unexpected emergency. When my stepmother returned from a stay in short term rehab., my dad fully expected things to revert to "normal". Unfortunately, that wasn't the case and on the first day home we both struggled mightily to make a wheelchair to bed transfer. It soon became apparent that my dad could not make transfers on his own.

My elderly mother and step father stayed with us in Seattle for five weeks during the holidays. They had a daily caregiver in their Arizona home, and I thought I could manage on my own. I realized within a day the task of helping them wash, dress and stay clean could be daunting and time consuming--particularly when a grumpy 84 year old man is in the picture.
I got a referral list from Greenwood Senior Center, and I chose Husky because they were close and offered less than four hour minimums. Did ever luck out.
Within one day Matt showed up (dressed in a suit...in Seattle) to fill out paperwork
