Caregivers With Full Days Close to Home in South OC and Premium Pay

Caregivers — Full Days Close to Home in South OC | $20–27/hr + Paid Drive Time

Full Time / Part Time • San Juan Capistrano, San Clemente, Mission Viejo & Aliso Viejo 

If you're tired of driving all over the county for a couple hours here and a couple hours there — read this.

We're building steady, full-day caregiver routes right in South County. Picture two-three clients who live close together, back-to-back shifts of about 3–5 hours each, and a real 6-to-10-hour day multiple times a week. Less time on the freeway, more hours on the clock, and a schedule you can actually plan your life around.

$20–27 per hour based on experience. Paid every two weeks — plus same-day pay through PayActiv when something can't wait until payday.

And when you do drive, we pay for it: paid travel time and paid mileage between your cases. Your day starts when you clock in, not when you finally get there.

What the work actually looks like

You'll be in someone's home helping them stay there — bathing and dressing, getting around safely, meal prep, light housekeeping, medication reminders, and good company through the long part of the afternoon. Some clients are recovering from surgery, some have dementia, some just need a dependable person in the house. We match you to clients who fit your experience and your comfort level, and we tell you exactly what you're walking into.

The best caregivers we've ever had shared one thing: they showed up when they said they would, and they noticed things. The rest we'll teach you.

Why work for us

We're a local, independently owned agency — not a national call center that treats caregivers like numbers. When you call the office, a person who knows your name picks up. We don't overbook you, we don't send you into a house blind, and we don't disappear when a shift goes sideways. Take care of our clients, and we'll keep you busy, close to home, and paid well.

Apply today. Every application gets a real response — usually within one business day.

We are an equal opportunity employer and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability status, protected veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law.

A few notes so this actually performs:

You never say "veterans" or "SCAN" anywhere — good instinct. "Some clients are recovering from surgery, some have dementia" keeps it honest and generic without tipping the payer source.

Job boards live and die on the headline, so here are three alternates worth A/B testing:

One honest flag: the phrase "willing to work with one or two clients" can read two ways to a candidate — some love a small, steady caseload, but a few will worry it means "not enough hours." I framed it as a feature (full days, more hours) to kill that objection up front. If your South County demand is genuinely deep, you could add a line like "and as more neighbors need care, we'll grow your route" — but only promise that if it's real.

Want me to drop this into a clean Word doc alongside your old two so you've got all three in one file, or spin up a shorter text-message / social version for quick recruiting blasts?
