Caregiver - Immediate Work Available!

Caregiving That Works for You – Choose Your Role!

Tandem Care is hiring passionate, reliable caregivers for two types of roles. Whether you want variety and full days or longer one-on-one visits with more control, we have a position for you.

Read both options below and tell us which fits you best when you apply. If you're open to either, just say so—we’ll help guide you!

1. Targeted Care (Team-Based Model)

Pay: $20–$22/hr + full benefits (medical, dental, vision, PTO, bonuses)

This role is for caregivers who want to stay active and see 4–6 clients a day—like working in assisted living, but you’re on the go. You'll get guaranteed hours, a consistent paycheck, and full-time employment.

You’re a great fit if you:

• 
  

  Hate downtime and love to stay busy - visits last between 45 minutes and 2 hours, on average.

  
  


• 
  

  Enjoy variety and are comfortable working with all types of clients (male, female, dementia, incontinence, pets, etc.)

  
  


• 
  

  Have a reliable car, your name on your auto insurance, and are willing to transport clients

  
  


• 
  

  Love driving and don’t mind traffic, finding parking, or staying organized between stops

  
  


• 
  

  Want to be part of a team and communicate often

  
  


• 
  

  Can commit to the same availability Monday–Friday

  
  

Not a good fit if:

• 
  

  You want to choose your own clients or decline certain types of care

  
  


• 
  

  You get easily frustrated by traffic, parking, or changes in your schedule

  
  


• 
  

  You prefer a set routine every day or only want a few hours here and there

  
  


• 
  

  You like working alone and don’t want to be part of a collaborative team

  
  

2. Companion Care (Assignment-Based Model)

Pay: $18–$20/hr | No benefits | Full-time or weekend-only

This role is for caregivers who want longer visits and consistent one-on-one relationships with clients. You choose the assignments that fit your availability and preferences.

You’re a great fit if you:

• 
  

  Like working longer visits (all visits are minimum 6 hours)

  
  


• 
  

  Prefer working with one or two clients at a time

  
  


• 
  

  Like having more control over your schedule and who you work with

  
  


• 
  

  Enjoy slower-paced care and downtime between tasks

  
  


• 
  

  Are looking for full-time hours or steady weekend work

  
  

Not a good fit if:

• 
  

  You're only looking to pick up a shift here and there with no regular availability

  
  


• 
  

  You're only interested in providing companionship and not hands-on personal care

  
  

Requirements (for Both Roles):

• 
  

  Active Home Care Aide (HCA) registration in California

  
  
  
  
  • 
    

    You must be registered with the state, have passed your Live Scan background check, and be listed as active

• 
  

  iPhone or Android smartphone – You’ll use work-related apps daily

  
  


• 
  

  Strong communication skills – We expect you to respond quickly and reliably

  
  


• 
  

  Reliability is non-negotiable – If your last employer would say you called out a lot, we’re probably not the right fit

  
  

We’re not just offering a job—we’re offering support, respect, and real paths for growth. If you’re serious about caregiving and ready to work for a company that has your back, apply now and tell us which model sounds like the best fit for you—or choose both.
