Homewatch CareGivers

Homewatch CareGivers is one of the oldest and most established home care franchises in America, providing non-medical care services to seniors and adults with disabilities since 1980. Founded by Paul Sauer in Greenwood Village, Colorado, Homewatch CareGivers operates 175+ franchise locations across 31 states, serving thousands of clients with a reputation for reliability, professionalism, and quality care as of 2026. With over 40 years of experience in home care, Homewatch CareGivers has refined its approach to providing personalized, dependable care that allows clients to maintain independence and dignity in their own homes. The company's longevity speaks to its ability to adapt to changing client needs and industry standards while maintaining its core commitment to quality care. Homewatch CareGivers provides comprehensive non-medical care services including personal care assistance (bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting), companionship, meal preparation and nutrition support, light housekeeping, medication reminders, mobility assistance, and transportation. The company also offers specialized services including dementia and Alzheimer's care, Parkinson's care, post-hospitalization care, and end-of-life care. One of Homewatch CareGivers' distinguishing features is its proprietary training program called "Homewatch University," an extensive online and classroom-based education system that ensures all caregivers receive consistent, high-quality training regardless of location. This standardized training covers personal care techniques, safety protocols, dementia care, communication skills, and ethical caregiving practices. Homewatch CareGivers is also known for its "BackUp Care" program, which ensures that if a client's regular caregiver is unavailable due to illness or emergency, a trained backup caregiver who is already familiar with the client's care plan can step in immediately. This continuity of care provides peace of mind to families. Each Homewatch CareGivers franchise is independently owned and operated, allowing for personalized service and community engagement while maintaining brand standards for caregiver selection, training, and quality assurance. All caregivers undergo comprehensive background screening and ongoing performance evaluation. Homewatch CareGivers has earned numerous industry awards including consistent rankings in Entrepreneur Magazine's Franchise 500 (often among the top 10 senior care franchises), recognition from Franchise Business Review for franchisee satisfaction, and accreditation from Home Care Pulse for quality and client satisfaction.
