I can’t speak highly enough of Home Instead and their staff. The entire experience from the time we had our first consultation, to the process of finding the most compatible caregiver right up to the time we had to cancel the services. The staff was friendly and efficient and were not only knowledgeable but also took the time to address all our questions and concerns leaving my mom feeling confident in the care she would receive. For anyone considering home care I would look no further than Home Instead. Thank you Home Instead for your services and companionship!!

We have had an exceptional experience with Home Instead while caring for my 93-year-old mother. Their caregivers have been truly wonderful — not only helping with daily hygiene and household tasks, but also providing the emotional support and companionship that make such a meaningful difference in her quality of life. They ensure my mom takes her medications regularly and safely, and they approach every task with patience, kindness, and professionalism. What stands out the most is the respect and dignity they show her at all times. They treat her as a person first, not just a patient. It brings our family great comfort knowing she is being cared for by people who genuinely care about her well-being. Home Instead has exceeded our expectations, and we are deeply grateful for the compassionate support they provide every day. I would highly recommend their services to anyone looking for trustworthy, respectful care for a loved one.

Our family has had a very positive experience with Home Instead. Co-owner Darryl brings a tremendous amount of knowledge and experience regarding the later stages of life. He has been incredibly helpful in guiding us through decisions about our mother’s care, allaying many of our concerns and offering practical, thoughtful advice along the way. The caregivers themselves are knowledgeable, kind, and genuinely caring. They show real affection for our mother, which gives us great comfort. It’s clear they approach their work with both professionalism and compassion. We also really appreciate the support staff, who do an excellent job keeping us informed and making sure communication is clear. Thanks to the support of the Home Instead team, our mother has been able to continue living in her independent retirement residence while receiving the care she needs. That continuity has meant a great deal to our family. We are very grateful for their support.

Our family is deeply grateful for the care and support we received from Home Instead over the past year and a half while caring for our mom, Ardemis, who is living with dementia and Alzheimer’s. From the very beginning, everyone we interacted with,was kind, responsive, and truly compassionate. During what can be a very emotional and challenging journey for a family, their support meant so much to us. We are especially thankful for Lola, who cared for our mom. She first started coming once a week for a few hours, and as our mom’s condition progressed, she began visiting on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Lola is truly exceptional. She is patient, gentle, and incredibly caring. Even on the more difficult days that come with dementia, she always treated Ardemis with dignity, kindness, and respect. Because of this support, we were able to keep our mom at home longer and know she was being cared for with compassion. Ardemis now lives at Macassa Lodge, and we remain very thankful for the care and comfort Lola and the Home Instead team provided to both our mom and our entire family. Their work truly makes a difference in people’s lives, and we would wholeheartedly recommend Home Instead to anyone looking for compassionate and dependable care for their loved ones. 🌷

Home Instead is absolutely amazing!! They were able to set up around the clock in home care on very short notice over a weekend for my father in law. It was a very stressful time and they were wonderful to deal with. They provided exceptional care and were very dependable. They were always willing to make accommodations for meals and bathroom preferences. A special thanks to Mary Ruth who is an angel and the primary caregiver to my father in law in the last weeks of his life. We are forever grateful to her and all of the other staff.

Thank you to the Home Instead team in Markham. They are remarkable, caring, and intuitive. From my very first apprehensive phone call, Jake Mitten, Leanne Sealey, Maddy Mitten, proved that Home Instead takes great care and pride in matching my loved one with a wonderful caregiver, Jenny. She recognized the needs of my sister, catered to her specific interests and tailored a program for personal care. Jenny went above and beyond to provide care and companionship. Thank you to the entire team!

I hired Home Instead for post-surgery support in Mississauga and had an excellent experience! From the first phone call with Paul, to my conversations with Belinda to organize care, to the very kind and professional support I received from Nancy, Shweta, and Kelly after my surgery — they truly went above and beyond with communication and care. My surgeon’s clinic was also very impressed. Great humans who clearly have strong support and training from Home Instead. I highly recommend their services!

Home Instead was instrumental in helping us manage the care of our 98 year old Aunt. They were available immediately in an emergency situation, and cared for her with kindness and compassion for many months. It made leaving her much easier, knowing she was so well cared for. We would highly recommend Brittany and her Team!

My brother and I can not say enough positive things about Home Instead. From initial call all the way through they have been amazing, supportive, caring and kind. The caregivers are compassionate and genuinely care for our parents as though they were their own loved ones. The difference it has made in our parents life can not be overstated. I would not hesitate to recommend Home Instead and in fact I have.
