Respite Care in Claremont, CA and Nearby Areas
Our respite care services offer primary caregivers the break they need in Claremont, Upland, La Verne, and the surrounding communities
When a senior loved one needs respite care at home, family members often become primary caregivers. Though this is a noble, rewarding gesture, the daily grind of balancing a career, family, personal needs, and caring for a loved one is too much for one person to handle alone. Sometimes primary caregivers are even reluctant to ask for help, thinking they can manage it all on their own – but this can only lead to over-the-roof stress levels and complete burnout.
At Comfort Keepers, we understand the challenges and hardships that primary caregivers may face, and we want to help. With our easy-to-schedule respite care services, you can take a break from caregiving whenever you need it, with peace of mind knowing you left your loved one in the trusted hands of a trained Comfort Keeper.

What Are Respite Care Services?
Though some countries call it “short break” care, in the United States, respite care refers to planned, temporary care provided by professionals when family or other unpaid caregivers need time off from caregiving.
As our services are flexible, you can easily schedule respite care for as little or as long as you need. Whether you need half a day off to run long-neglected errands, want to rest at home and spend quality time with the kids, or are going on a two-week vacation, we are here to back you up. Our trained care professionals offer all kinds of assistance and can help your parent with:
In-Home Care:
Companion Care – our caregivers are dedicated to building solid relationships with the clients in their care
Personal Care – we offer respectful assistance with personal needs like bathing, dressing, and grooming. This also includes services like fall prevention, mobility assistance, transferring, toileting and incontinence care, and meal preparation
Safety Care – we ensure seniors stay safe at home, even if they are alone
Interactive Caregiving – our caregivers are there to uplift seniors' lives and ensure they have the best quality of care for their overall health
Specialized Care:
24 Hour Care – this service benefits older adults with safety concerns, who are bedridden, or who live with a chronic condition. Our caregivers can work in shifts to provide quality services and monitor your loved one’s health at any time
Dementia Care – our memory care services allow a person with dementia to remain where they are most familiar and comfortable: home. Our caregivers are trained in the best practices of memory care to ensure you or your loved one is safe and healthy at home for as long as possible

Frequently Asked Questions
What is respite care, and who is it for?
Respite care is short-term, temporary care provided by a trained professional so family caregivers can take a break—whether for a few hours, a day, or an extended vacation—while their loved one continues receiving quality care at home.
How much notice do I need to schedule respite care?
Respite care is flexible. While advance scheduling helps ensure caregiver availability, Comfort Keepers can often accommodate both planned breaks and shorter-notice requests. Contact your local office to check availability for your specific timeframe.
Is respite care only for a few hours, or can it cover longer periods like a vacation?
Both. Respite care can be scheduled for as little as a few hours to run errands or rest, or for extended periods — including multi-day or multi-week coverage — if you're traveling or need a longer break from caregiving duties.
Do I need to use the same caregiver every time I schedule respite care?
Comfort Keepers works to match your loved one with a consistent, dedicated caregiver whenever possible, so they're cared for by someone familiar rather than a different person each visit.
Is respite care only for seniors with a specific diagnosis, like dementia?
No. Respite care is available for any family caring for a senior loved one, regardless of diagnosis — though specialized training is available for conditions like dementia when needed.
How much does respite care cost?
Cost depends on the type of care, frequency, and duration of the respite period. Visit our Paying for Care page for more details, or contact us for a personalized quote.
Can respite care help prevent caregiver burnout?
Yes. Taking regular breaks through respite care helps family caregivers manage stress, protect their health, and sustain their ability to provide care long-term—rather than reaching a point of complete burnout.
