About Rhonda

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I helped my elderly father for eight years, shopping for him, taking him to various doctor's appointments and other places he needed to be driven to and also assisted him when he was walking as he was unable to do so on his own. I also helped my husband for many years while he was sick with cancer. I took him to numerous doctors' appointments and to the hospital. I often had to get his medication from the drug store. I am patient with the elderly as I realize that they move at a slower pace. I also assisted numerous women who needed companionship, light cleaning, shopping, etc. I own a car and have a clean driver's license. I have had my driver's license for 46 years. I love animals and owned an Australian Cattle dog until his passing from disease at age 11. I now own a sweet shepherd/beagle mix. I feel that animals deserve the best life that we can provide for them. They should be treated with love and kindness. I also have two grown children and would love to care for children again.

Rhonda has been a blessing to me. She is currently working for me 3 days a week for 3 hours a day. My husband passed away this past September & we lost our only child at age 40 in 2006. I was in a state of critical trauma & then suffered grief. I had no energy to do anything. I hired Rhonda two weeks ago. Since Rhonda also lost her husband, she knew exactly where I was coming from. She is compassionate, honest & extremely reliable. Since I did not renew my license during this awful time, Rhonda takes me driving to wherever I want to go. She actually energizes me that I am able to do the important work that has to be accomplished. When I become discouraged, Rhonda is there to tell me that she also experienced the same. I will be employing Rhonda probably up to mid January & if all is not accomplished, she will be with me for as long as it takes. Kathy W.
