Yes — we offer part-time, full-time, and contract schedules across mornings, evenings, and weekends. Many of our caregivers are parents, students, or people with other responsibilities outside of work. We match your availability to client needs as closely as possible, and we respect that your time matters too. Flexible scheduling is one of the most consistent things our caregivers say they value about working here.

How do I apply for a caregiver job at Cottage Home Care?

You can apply online through the Careers page at cottagehomecare.com/careers, or through LinkedIn and Indeed. You can also call your local Cottage Home Care office directly.
