Care At Home

What Care At Home does

Care At Home is a family-owned, non-medical home care registry based in Arnold, Pennsylvania, in the Pittsburgh metropolitan area. Founded in 1995 by Sandra Dunkel, RN, the company matches individual seniors and families with caregivers for personal care, companionship, medication reminders, mobility support, meal preparation, light housekeeping, and 24/7 care. It is licensed by the Pennsylvania Department of Health, and Jessica Healey has owned the business since 2024.

Rather than employing caregivers directly, Care At Home acts as an intermediary that connects caregivers with clients. Its documented go-to-market model is direct-to-consumer through its website, telephone, and in-person consultations. No pricing, fee, client-volume, contract-value, or revenue figures are disclosed, and no underlying software platform or technical architecture is described; the available evidence therefore supports a local service-registry characterization rather than a technology-platform characterization.
