Safety & policies

Please read this before your first booking. It's short on purpose — we'd rather you actually read it.

How we screen Carers

Every Carer completes a national background check, ID verification, and an enrollment or degree check with their school before appearing in search. Background checks reflect records at the time they were run and cannot guarantee future conduct — use your own judgment, especially at a first meeting.

Independent contractors, not employees

Carers are independent contractors, not employees or agents of collegecarers.com. They set their own schedule and methods, and are solely responsible for their own transportation to and from visits.

Not licensed care, and not advice

collegecarers.com is a companionship and errand-help marketplace — not a home health, medical, legal, financial, or licensed caregiving service. Carers do not provide medical care, medication management, physical lifting or transfers, or professional advice of any kind. For medical, legal, or emergency needs, contact a licensed provider or call 911.

Meetings, outings & travel

Clients and Carers mutually agree on meeting locations, outings, and routes directly with each other. We recommend first meetings happen in a public place or with a family member present. collegecarers.com does not supervise, accompany, or transport anyone during a visit.

Use at your own risk

All bookings are used at the client's own risk. collegecarers.com is not liable for injuries, losses, disputes, or damages arising from a visit. A liability waiver is presented and must be accepted before a client's first booking is confirmed.

Money-back guarantee

If your first hour with a Carer isn't a fit, tell us within 48 hours and we'll refund that hour in full — no forms, no back-and-forth.
