What is a Papa Pal?
Papa Pals support our members with companionship, help around the house, shopping, transportation, and more.
Become a Papa Pal and use our mobile app to browse flexible work opportunities, book visits with members on-demand, and work as much as you want, whenever you want.
Browse nearby visits by distance, day, and time. Once you find a visit that works for you, tap to accept. Book visits the same day or up to 30 days in advance.
The Papa Pal app tracks your travel. All you need to do is show up on time and have a great visit. That’s it!
You’ll earn an hourly rate, daily AND weekly bonuses (based on how many visits you complete), as well as any other bonuses we may offer. Papa Pals are usually paid within two business days.
Work from anywhere, anytime, with no limit on earnings.

So many seniors are lonely and I am here to help them feel heard and loved. When I build healthy relationships with Papa members, I help them overcome their feelings of loneliness, and they give me the joy of human connection.
The companionship we offer not only allows the members to feel good and appreciated, but I also feel good knowing I am making a difference in their lives. I do the things for them that they cannot—errands, organizing, cooking—while we talk, spend time, and strengthen our social bond.
