Reviews Encore Caregivers
August 2026
Maxim healthcare is a great company. I love that they allow the parents to interview the staff before having them as your child’s nurse. The staff are very friendly, and forgiving when situations that you may not like regarding your child take place. They are attentive at getting other nurses to interview so that we you can decide if it’ll be a great fit for you and your child. I have gone through a few nurses for various reasons and after explaining to them the situation they understood and let me know they keep looking. There were a few communication mishaps where someone showed up to interview but I had no idea they were coming and there was not a nurse present to train them. Or I didn’t know my daughter had nursing on some days because it wasn’t communicated but overall if I could change one thing it would be to encourage better communication on the recruiter side of the program.

5 Stars “ Outstanding Care and Compassion I cannot say enough good things about Encore Caregivers. From the very first phone call, their team was professional, responsive, and genuinely compassionate. They took the time to understand our family’s needs and matched us with caregivers who were not only skilled and dependable but also kind, patient, and incredibly thoughtful. Our caregivers became like members of the family”always arriving on time, treating our loved one with dignity and respect, and going above and beyond in every way. Whether it was helping with daily routines, preparing meals, or just offering companionship and a warm smile, they brought comfort and peace of mind to our entire family. What stood out most was the personal touch. The office staff checked in regularly, made scheduling easy, and truly cared about the well-being of both the client and our family. Knowing that our loved one was in such capable and caring hands was an enormous relief. I wholeheartedly recommend Encore Caregivers to anyone looking for top-notch, compassionate in-home care. They truly make a difference.

Simply well-done and well managed caregiving service.
April 2025
Garrett and Encore Caregivers staff have been nothing short of amazing. I lived four hours away when I received a call from the hospital saying my mother had been diagnosed with late-stage dementia and depression and could no longer live independently. I was from out of town and had no idea where to start. Encore's knowledgeable and caring staff immediately stepped in and consistently went above and beyond throughout our extremely dramatic and challenging year and a half. I am eternally grateful for their support, professionalism, empathy, and creative problem-solving. If you have a family member who requires caregiving, I highly recommend Encore Caregivers - they will not disappoint no matter how challenging your situation may be.

Encore provided an amazing experience with Deborah A. as my caregiver for a short procedure at MDA. I was in town alone for the procedure, and she stayed in an adjoining room at my hotel, checked on me at agreed on intervals, and assisted me with transportation. I was able to focus on what I needed to do, without worring about logistics and feeling the confidence that if I needed help, someone was there. Thanks you Encore and Thank you Deborah!

Would definitely recommend. Appreciated the kindness and attentiveness from the staff and prompt communications.
February 2025
Encore's compassionate caregivers took amazing care of my mother while she was in hospice. They were such professionals but also quickly felt like family. The caregivers gave my mother the dignity we'd hoped she would be provided during such a difficult time but also brought joy and happiness to a home that was otherwise consumed by grief. Their kindness and thoughtfulness during this time will never be forgotten. We are so grateful to have found Encore and the incredible team of caregivers: Rita, Lacy, Dammy, Philippa and so many more. Thank you for everything.

We appreciate James VERY MUCH! He is pleasant and follows through when Ron needs him. I like him too. He can easily lift Ron where some people couldn't in the past.

An Excellent place to find good caregivers. The caregivers they selected are experience in caring patient with dementia. Encore services are outstanding! One can extend the service hours when needed. Substitute caregiver will be provided quickly when main caregiver was absence.

I cannot speak highly enough about the service and care Encore has provided to my husband during his frequent visits to MDAnderson for treatments. The staff are kind and attentive. Shout out to Sheretta and Ms Debra (who actually came out of retirement to help my husband). We are from Georgia and having caregivers in Houston Texas that we can trust is extremely important. I highly recommend Encore Caregivers in Houston.
August 2024
This is the 4th time I’ve used Encore Caregivers. Debra is fantastic.. very friendly, helpful, pleasant making recovery less stressful. Great Team.
May 2024
Many times I have used Encore Caregivers to transport me from the MD Anderson Endoscopy Center to the Rotary House hotel. From the very first call, everyone has been so helpful and nice. Sheretta, who schedules the people to pick you up, is so very kind, efficient and flexible. It is always a pleasure to talk with her and she keeps me up-to-date on who is assigned to take care of me. This past week, I had the pleasure of meeting Deborah A., one of the caregivers, and she was there on time and took care of getting me discharged and to my room. This is a very valuable service for people who do not have family members to assist them. The hospital, rightfully so, will not let you leave after sedation unless there is an adult to take care of you. Encore Caregivers is an excellent service and I highly recommend them.
April 2024
Their caregiving services are nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we spoke with Cindy, the nurse, they demonstrated a level of professionalism and compassion that immediately put our minds at ease. The caregivers have become like family to us. They are not only highly skilled and knowledgeable but also incredibly kind and attentive to our needs. They go above and beyond.
April 2024
Pendo, our caregiver, has been outstanding. She is extremely reliable, very bright & attentive. She provides quality observations on how my husband can regain some of his independence. Highly competent in every aspect of service. We feel very lucky to have her. Encore Caregivers is very responsive & easy to deal with.
March 2024
Encore Caregivers has been a blessing to our family. The office staff goes above and beyond to help and stay in communication with our family. The RN, Cindy is extremely kind and wealth of information. Our caregiver is amazing, not only does she do a great job but she is also a positive and calming influence. Overall amazing experience in what can be a difficult situation.
March 2024
I was getting a procedure done here out of state from Florida and I found the encore caregivers in Yelp and gave them a call and took a big risk because I’m just unfamiliar with any of the caregivers around here. First of all these caregivers were so caring and concerned about who they connect you with what kind of experience they’re going to provide you and just everything from the type of service to the budget to everything so that was really reassuring for me. Then I updated my information with them and they provided me. Someone called Lillie who was absolutely phenomenal. She not only showed up a little bit early because I was nervous and she kind of anticipated everything for me, but she drove me to the place in a very clean car . She was very personable. She knew exactly what she was doing. Not once did I have to say hey hold this for me pick this for me help me with this she was spot on ahead of the game and just so sweet we connected right away bless her heart. She is just such a professional and personable human being , she also was not the type of person who had to leave on time the situation extended much longer and she waited for me for that extra time which was so appreciative because I would’ve had to stay overnight. If I didn’t have someone to help me, you know check out because you can’t just Uber yourself out of a hospital so that was really very very appreciative and I felt very blessed to have someone like that. I can’t tell you that encore is the best. It was the best for me and it was far above my expectations. The people the professionals they care they were just so engaging they were very Kind in their you know discussions with me they didn’t talk to me like I was you know just a piece of meat or an object which was nice and I’m so lucky that everything went even better than well, so I just wanted the world to know that you can trust yourself in the hands of encore and the professionals. They really know what they’re doing. They really care about their clients and patients And the staff is just extremely knowledgeable and so they’re not going to do anything that is gonna you know raise eyebrows or even you know cause harm they’re gonna prepare for it all and you can count your blessings on that, so I hopefully will show my appreciation through this review on how much this meant to me because having a procedure on your own by yourself is frightening enough, but knowing that someone is there with you that isn’t just there because you’re paying them. They really care is just even more than you can ask for , thank you encore and Lillie

The decision to seek in-home care for my loved one was incredibly difficult, but choosing Encore Caregivers was the easiest and best choice I've ever made. From the moment we contacted them, everyone at Encore radiated warmth, understanding, and professionalism. Every step of the way, they listened carefully to our needs and concerns, ensuring we felt supported and confident in our decision. I would recommend Encore to anyone who is considering home healthcare for their loved one!
November 2023
Encore Caregivers are reliable, professional, and great with communication. I don’t live in Houston, so being able to trust Encore with family gave me peace of mind. Definitely recommend 10/10
October 2023
Our experience with Encore was stellar. From start up, to implementation, to finish... All aspects were professional, including excellent communication, upfront pricing, organized service, on-time caregivers and personal care. We felt respected, loved and safe with these people. The only area of improvement I would recommend is invoicing. The portal did not work very well for us. We would have actually preferred to just send payment over the phone or by mail. Digital just behaved differently on so many platforms. But the office did help us work it out. Thank you, Garrett, for always taking my calls and treating us like family.
August 2023
I had a first-rate experience with the team at Encore Caregivers during a recent series of outpatient surgeries. My request required their services outside of their typical business hours, yet from my first phone call, the Encore team went the extra mile to understand my needs and accommodate my transportation and support needs. My assigned caregiver, Miss Lily (sp?) was outstanding - very friendly, compassionate, and a great pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend for any short-term or long- term healthcare engagement and will gladly work within again in the future!

Best agency to work with. The scheduler is super awesome and the nurse trainings are the best!!
August 2023
The entire experience with Encore Caregivers was performed in a professional and reassuring manner. From the initial request for services through assignment and scheduling of the Caregivers, more than a reasonable effort was made to accommodate the needs of the patient and her family. Each of the Caregivers arrived on time, dressed appropriately and acted with dignity and empathy for the patient’s post surgery pain and disability that we admired and appreciated.
April 2023
Encore Caregivers was a lifesaver. I needed help getting to and from an important doctor's appointment. Encore stepped in and made it easy. I was picked up on time by a driver and companion who was great. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone and plan on using them again anytime I need help.

Encore Caregivers provided exceptional service during a difficult time of illness for a family member The Encore staff members who helped us were professional, courteous, had positive attitudes and were highly skilled. If you have tried other providers, and are not happy with the results, I strongly encourage you to contact Encore as soon as you can - they will truly help you.
April 2022
My family has been a client of Encore Caregivers since late April 2020. We have been very pleased with the service and care provided by the company and its caregivers and would highly recommend them to others. Although she has remained mentally acute, after our then 95-year-old mother fell and broke her right hip and wrist last year, we determined that the only way she could continue living alone in her own home would be if she had someone with her part of each day to ensure she was okay and provide non-medical assistance with activities of daily living as needed. Since we were not sure what those needs would be or what times or number of hours would be required, we needed a company that was flexible in their scheduling parameters. We needed caregivers who were professional and well-trained, including in safety and sensitive hygiene care. We liked the idea that ENCORE is a small family-owned business and have been very satisfied with the quality of their caregivers and the responsiveness of their office personnel. They are always reachable by phone 24 hours a day, seven days a week and respond immediately to our needs and concerns, working with us to answer questions and resolve any problems that occasionally arise. Their caregivers are patient and companionable, quick to recognize and report “ when appropriate - any significant changes in our mother’s mental and physical state. We have enjoyed working with ENCORE’s team and look forward to continuing their services as long as they are needed.
February 2022
The level of compassion and care that Encore exhibits has provided comfort to my family, something that is so appreciated. Thank you for always providing the care and support that we need at this time.
August 2021
Having been in the Emergency Room the night before, I was in no shape to drive myself to my two appointments down in the Houston Medical Center the next day. Encore worked fast and tirelessly to get a caregiver/driver for me so that I arrived on time. The Caregiver was very efficient, careful; she cheerfully received and welcomed my instructions for the route and even for specific driving lanes. She sat patiently through the appointments, afforded sweet company for me, and graciously received my reports of the findings of the appointments. Encore is my Go-To for superior help in time of need.
November 2020
I used Encore Care Givers. Had a very professional woman. She couldn't vacuum or mop. When I asked her to feed my gold fish she said," you can do it yourself" another time I asked her to relay a message to the drive up pharmacy window and she said you can do that yourself making me scream over her to the window. She would never walk near me. I never understood that. It was like at least 12 feet apart I just left her alone staying in my bedroom. Depended on her for transportation. I had to hire more maid service the house was getting so unclean. I started documenting her sitting on the couch most of the day. She would cook. I got her doing some laundry. I became aware she was in some kind of savere pain. Noticing lidocaine patches in her car. Taking tyenol before I had her carry heavy items. I noticed one day when she came out of the bathroom that the medicine cabinet was open. I wondered if she had some kind of wound. I emailed the Encore nurse about concerns for a wound or severe pain. I sent her a picture of the lidocaine patches in her car. Told her about the tyenol. Melton and the nurse said she was right for me. I explained I would not work a woman in pain. They let me know it was her or no one else. I could not believe they would do that to her and to me also...
September 2020
Encore came highly recommended through a friend. I contacted them after my mother had fallen and we decided we needed a caregiver in the home to help her. On my initial call I spoke with Marilou. My first impression could not have been any better. Marilou was thorough, personal and very much engaged. We set up a meeting in my Mom's home with the nurse, Cindy. Again, I cannot tell you how thorough, personable, engaging and overall sweet Cindy was during our meeting. We set a schedule and had our first caregiver, Yinka, a few days later. Yinka was the sweetest. My mom has memory loss and it is overwhelming for her to sit and have long conversations. Yinka has been trained and was very good with Mom. We are no longer using Encore, but it is not because we were not happy with every aspect of the care my mom was receiving. It came down to the number of hours we needed help and the cost. If the cost was not in the equation, Encore/Yinka would still be caring for my mother. We had one miscommunication about working on a holiday, and Marilou quickly took care of the issue. If your loved one needs care, speak to Marilou. She knows her stuff and their company is very well-run and equipped.
July 2020
My family was in need of full time caregivers for my father on hospice. The team was very professional, respectful, compassionate, and patient. We were blessed to experience their services and get to know the team that came to our home. My family also appreciated the ability for us to log on to a scheduling/bio link they provided so we could know who is scheduled to come, and when. Very trustworthy, very much appreciated.
May 2020
When our last caregiver Bukky left I was so sad to see her go since she had been with us for several months. The new caregiver, Mo, that took her place is so awesome. I was so impressed that she picked up where Bukky left off and immediately developed a caring relationship with my mom. She is so kind and gentle with my mom and so very patient. I never worry about mom when Mo is with her. I don't know what we would do without her. I can’t tell you how thankful I was for Laura last week when I had to call Encore at the last minute when our personal caregiver became ill. I read Laura's profile and immediately was impressed. When Laura came to visit , she was an absolute breath of fresh air and she fit right in like family. Thank you again for Mo and Laura. I realize that the caregivers are not just there for mom, but for the family, as well.
