"I don't like having people in our house but needed help. Veronica provided caregivers who became friends quickly. She is kind and compassionate. My husband had the best care possible. I would only use her agency because she is so involved and cares so much."
"Veronica and Aya are wonderful people with great love and compassion for your loved ones — and I'm very picky. Lovely and caring best describes them."
"Veronica and her team of aides have been taking care of Mom for a number of years. Great people and competitive rates. Thanks for all you do for Mom."

🎂 Celebrating a client's 95th birthday — every client becomes family
💙 "If you are looking for care for a loved one, you don't need to look any further" — Wendy, whose grandmother was in our care
✨ Care in action — Veronica doing a client's hair
The question every family quietly asks is "will my parent actually be okay?" Here's our track record.
And if a caregiver ever calls out? The owner covers the gap herself. Your parent is never left alone waiting.
| Only The Best | Typical Corporate Agency | |
|---|---|---|
| Owner personally comes to the first visit & introduces your caregiver | ✓ Always | ✕ Call center intake |
| Same matched caregiver at every visit | ✓ Caregiver Match Program | ✕ Rotating roster |
| Who answers at 2am | The owner | Answering service |
| Call-out coverage | ✓ Owner covers the shift herself | ✕ "We'll try to find someone" |
| Hourly rate | $35–$45 | $60–$65 |
| Long-term contracts | ✓ None — weekly billing | ✕ Often required |
| Caregiver replacement if not a fit | ✓ Within 7 days, guaranteed | Can take up to 3 months |
| Extra tasks outside the care sheet | ✓ We just do them | ✕ "Not in scope" |
| Caregiver pay (quality follows pay) | Well above market | Minimum they can get away with |
| Background checks, certification & insurance docs handed to your family | ✓ Before day one | On request, maybe |
| Sunday visits, birthday & holiday gifts, random quality drop-ins | ✓ Standard | ✕ |
"Typical corporate agency" reflects what families in Collier & Lee County consistently report to us about large franchise providers. Individual agencies vary.
Every layer of protection is standard, on every assignment, from day one. Nothing is an upgrade.
Full background checks and health screening (including TB/PPD testing) before anyone enters a client's home — and we show your family the file.
Certified caregivers (CNA/HHA), personally trained by Veronica and retrained as your parent's needs change.
Insurance including auto coverage for appointments and errands. Proof provided to every family.
Every visit documented daily — what was done, what was eaten, how your parent seemed. You're never guessing.
Veronica drops in on assignments randomly and calls clients directly for feedback. The standard is enforced.
We proactively ask you and your parent how care is going — a second layer of accountability most agencies never offer.
Meet the owner and the caregivers — the same people who will be in your parent's home.
🎂 Ms. Molly celebrating her 103rd birthday
Ms. Molly's children live across the country in California. For nine years, Only The Best has been their eyes, ears, and hands in her home — 24/7, all-inclusive care from the same trusted team.
When she fell and broke her leg, Veronica visited the hospital every other day, refused to let anyone discharge her without her doctor's and children's approval, then personally oversaw her recovery at home — until she was walking again.
That's what "only the best" actually means: someone who treats your mother like their own.
Because we're owner-run — not a franchise paying corporate fees — we deliver more personal care for less.
Your exact rate depends on your loved one's care plan and hours — clear written quote at your free assessment. Private pay · checks, credit/debit, direct deposit · secure payments via Square.
If you're not completely satisfied with your caregiver within the first three weeks, we'll replace them within seven days — at no additional charge. Big agencies can take months. We won't make your parent wait.
Tell us who needs care and how soon. We'll call you back the same day — usually within the hour — with our availability.
The owner personally visits your loved one's home, walks it for safety, listens to your family, and writes a clear care plan with an exact quote. No cost, no obligation.
Veronica introduces your hand-matched caregiver in person, hands you the background-check and insurance documents, and care begins. Protected by the Right-Fit Guarantee.
Almost every family tells us the same thing after care begins: "We should have done this months ago."
Most families call us after the first fall, the first hospital stay, the first scare. Fall-prevention habits and a safe routine are worth far more before the emergency than after it.
Right now, "the plan" is probably you — flights, phone calls, guilt, and exhaustion. Burnout strains the very relationship you're trying to protect.
Skipped meals, missed medications, and isolation compound slowly. The right support early keeps your parent stronger, sharper, and at home longer.
Yes. Only The Best Home Care is a registered non-medical home care agency serving Collier and Lee Counties, Florida, with nine years of professional caregiving behind us (established 2017). We provide our registration and insurance documents to every family before care begins.
Every caregiver is background-checked, health-screened, certified, and insured — including auto insurance for transportation. We keep a full file on every caregiver and share the documentation with your family.
Once you sign, your matched caregiver is in the home within 24–48 hours — often sooner. Same-day and next-day starts are frequently available. In a true emergency gap, the owner covers the shift personally.
Rates run $35–$45 per hour depending on the care plan and hours ($45/hr for 4–5 hour visits, $35/hr for 6+ hours) — typically $15–$20 per hour less than the large corporate agencies. Exact written quote at your free assessment. Weekly billing, no long-term contracts.
Yes — that's the heart of our Caregiver Match Program. We match by personality and needs, Veronica introduces the caregiver in person, and that caregiver stays on the assignment.
Tell us within the first three weeks and we'll replace them within seven days at no additional charge.
Yes. Specialized non-medical dementia care, plus personal care, companionship, medication reminders, housekeeping, meals, transportation, and 24/7 packages. See all services →
