Pleasant Hill CA Senior Care Hillendale

Home Care in Pleasant Hill, CA

Pleasant Hill sits right in the middle of things, tucked between Walnut Creek and Concord and connected by BART, so it's a place where families often split their time between a parent's house and their own across town. When that back-and-forth starts to feel unsustainable, or a loved one simply needs more support to stay safely at home, Hillendale Home Care provides non-medical home care in Pleasant Hill built around that daily reality. Our caregivers help older adults keep their routines, their independence, and their own front door, while giving family members some breathing room.

Home Care with Humanity

From the moment you meet the Pleasant Hill Hillendale team, you'll feel the difference: personalized caregiver matching, hands-on training, seamless coordination, and clear, ongoing communication.

In-Home Support for Pleasant Hill Families

Whether you need hourly assistance or around-the-clock care, the Hillendale team is here to help. Together, Hillendale's highly trained caregivers and comprehensive care management team build individualized in-home care plans to provide ongoing support that meets your family's unique needs throughout Contra Costa County.

Our Pleasant Hill caregivers assist with:

  • Personal care such as bathing, dressing, and grooming
  • Meal planning and cooking according to specific dietary needs
  • Medication reminders and wellness check-ins
  • Laundry and light housekeeping
  • Friendly conversation and emotional companionship
  • Transportation to appointments and errands

Care That Puts the Person First

We know that inviting a caregiver into your home is a decision that takes trust. Our approach starts with listening: understanding a client's habits, preferences, and personality before we ever talk about a schedule. Every plan of care is built around the individual, not a template, and adjusted as needs change over time. Families in Pleasant Hill work with our team to set a pace and routine that actually fits their household.

Familiar with Pleasant Hill

Our caregivers get to know the rhythms of the neighborhoods they serve, not just the address on file. That might mean a slow walk through Pleasant Hill Park on a clear afternoon, or timing a grocery run around traffic near Diablo Valley College. For clients who live close to the Contra Costa Centre transit village, easy BART access also means out-of-town family can visit more often without a long drive, and we build our scheduling around those visits rather than working against them. Because Pleasant Hill sits so centrally in the county, it's also convenient for our care team to coordinate closely with family members based in Walnut Creek, Concord, or elsewhere nearby.

Why Pleasant Hill Families Choose Hillendale

  • A care plan built around your loved one's specific needs and preferences, not a fixed package
  • Caregivers who are comfortable navigating Pleasant Hill's neighborhoods, from areas near Diablo Valley College to streets close to the BART station
  • Flexible scheduling that can expand from a few hours a week to around-the-clock care as needs change
  • A local team that's easy to reach and easy to talk to, based nearby in Walnut Creek
  • Consistent communication with family, wherever they live

What Families Are Saying

I recently had total hip replacement surgery and needed someone to take me to and from the hospital and be with me for the following 48 hours or more if needed. The caregivers from Hillendale were exceptional. Violetta picked me up promptly very early on the day of my surgery, stayed with me through admittance, picked up my post-operative medications, joined me in recovery to go over my post-operative care instructions, drove me home and helped me until Hakuna relieved her for the overnight shift. Hakuna was just as attentive and professional during the overnight hours. She would hear me get out of bed and was immediately there to help. Violetta and Hakuna were with me for 48 hours and were both exceptionally professional and helpful. Jean relieved Hakuna after that, but by now I was getting around quite well and no longer needed much help. However, Jean was eager to help in any way and was a great companion. All three ladies were extraordinary companions and caregivers. I would highly recommend Hillendale Home Care to anyone needing their specialized services.

Truly Exceptional Care and Compassion. Every single person we interacted with at Hillendale—starting from our very first call—has been compassionate, communicative, organized, honest, and deeply supportive. If you find yourself in the incredibly difficult position of needing in-home care for a loved one, we can say without hesitation: Hillendale is the best in the East Bay. Their team and caregivers showed our grandmother, and our entire family, an extraordinary level of empathy and kindness during one of the darkest and most emotional times in our lives. Their caregivers bonded with our grandmother immediately—offering not just support, but true companionship: encouragement, warm conversations over coffee, shared stories, and even soothing hand and foot massages. They've been flexible and responsive with schedules, staffing, and changing needs. Their professionalism is matched only by the genuine heart they bring to this work. Hillendale has been worth every single penny, and we are so grateful for the peace of mind and comfort they brought to our family.

Francesca, Gabriella, and the team of caregivers at Hillendale are wonderful. They all showed such compassion to my parents and to me when organizing care and caring for my dad when he started hospice at home. Each caregiver was respectful, helpful, and friendly. Gabriella went above and beyond her duties to make sure my parents and I felt supported and she made herself available to us 24/7 for questions and concerns. I believe that the Hillendale team helped my dad get strong enough to where he has now regained some independence in terms of personal care and getting around the house. My family and I are very grateful to this amazing team of caregivers.

Hillendale Home Care provided outstanding care to my 95-year-old mother in the last stages of cancer. They responded quickly, deployed excellent people who were always on time, always considerate, and always confident and skillful.

I can't say enough about the amazing Hillendale staff! My brother Brian Cooley had a major stroke back in 2017… he was only 52 at the time. His whole life changed dramatically that day. It takes a very special kind of person to come out mobily every day and offer a smile and a shower, a fresh set of clothes. My brother is a very social, kind person and the stroke has limited his ability to get out. He so enjoys and appreciates all that Hillendale does for him, we all do. The staff are kind, patient, thorough, safering, professional, trustworthy, consistent, always on time, full-of-heart kind of people and we are forever grateful for their service to those in need. Thank you! Sincerely, Cristin Schump.

Hillendale is an amazing company. They helped my family and I so much when we needed to get a caregiver for my grandmother. We first spoke with Laura and she was so understanding and helped explain the whole process to us. Our caregiver has been nothing but great and so helpful. I would recommend Hillendale, Laura and their caregivers to anyone who is looking for help with a loved one.
