  • My Papa’s Rock!

    The time I spend with my Papa’s is priceless. I have developed meaningful relationships and consider it a privilege spending time with them hearing their stories. My favorite question to ask is “based on your life’s experience, what advice would you give me?” Their answers are wise and thoughtful. I could write a book!
  • Pay increase from members requests

    As I continue getting experience from 229 visits completed so far, and many members requesting my stellar service and companionship, I would like to see an increase in pay from members requesting me.
  • A rewarding accomplishment!

    PaPa Pals is a rewarding job helping the elderly run errands and house work that they can’t do and also young people who are disabled or just don’t drive and need to get around. It gives you a very happy feeling and knowing that you can build a trusting caring relationship with someone you just met and to get to know them by just a small conversation together and the best part about it all is that you get request from members and it makes you feel good that you are doing a great job and you should be proud of yourself and Your accomplishments that you are receiving at PaPa Pals.

  • PAPA???

    Okay the title was just for sillies but seriously, this is a great way to get a little extra money on your schedule and help out your community! I’ve only had one experience so far but i look forward to many more! There are so many connections to be had and this is a fantastic way to symbiotically help others and yourself ❤️
  • Rewarding work with meaningful purpose

    Helping a member as their pal is a rewarding & meaningful experience. Connecting with someone with your presence & conversation & by completing helpful tasks for them, you will feel like you have contributed to making their day better. You can also learn a lot from them when they share their own life experiences and wisdom with you.
  • I’m so glad I found this

    It didn’t take long to get signed up and start working. My background check came back fast and I just had my first client. I had a little trouble finding the address because the map on my phone was a little off, but I called the company and they resolved it immediately.
  • Papa pal is the best

    I am writing my review to say that every since April 21 of 2022 I have had nothing but maturity good experiences with this company. As normal you will have people that are a little bit absurd and then you have the people that are just amazing beautiful soul people and those of the people that I enjoy working with the most I have a lot of prefer pals that I enjoy seeing every day to hear a new story to be around in their life it’s a blessing more than anything. Doing Papa Pal👵🏽👨🏽‍🦳 has helped me out a lot personally and help me develop my characteristics a little more and definitely my social skills. I enjoy making my pals smile and just being a part of their day and live even if it is for two to maybe five hours every visit. Papa Pal👵🏽👨🏽‍🦳 is a first come first serve when it comes to visit they do have amazing bonuses that can range from 15 to 25 extra dollars on top of your regular pay depending on the state. Overall I encourage everybody to try Papa Pal👵🏽👨🏽‍🦳 you can work from various group ages from newborn to a wise elder.

  • Working as a Pal at PapaPal

    This is the most rewarding work. The members or Papa’s truly need help with little tasks they can’t do. If they didn’t have PapaPal they would dwell on the fact that they can no longer do it themselves. Which would make them sad or they would attempt to do these little tasks (like changing a lightbulb) they could hurt themselves. On top of this, they enjoy your companionship and they need this connection. It makes them happy and you will love hearing their stories. They have been where we are but we have not been where they are. They are very interesting and insightful. If you listen you will get much information that you can apply in your own life from their experience. This companionship also helps their health and extends their lives. PapaPal is the best service ever invented. For the Papa and the Pal! ❤️

  • Great Idea……Super Poor Execution

    After two or three months of trying to work for this company I finally had to give up and delete the app today. Sad, because I am exactly the kind of person they should be looking for. A recent retiree, not that interested in the money, looking to help people and have a flexible work schedule. But after many tries at booking visits I had about a 40% success rate and it started to get discouraging and annoying. It is common to book a visit one day and wake up the next day with the visit gone from your queue. The help desk verified the commonality of this and admitted that it can be discouraging. I also had a few members cancel the day before the visit. On top of that the app is a mess. I would suggest they immediately fire the company that supports the app and revamp it. Most of the visits, I would say 90% or so, are for ‘house chores’. You don’t get the details on exactly how in-depth the cleaning is until after you accept it. If you try to cancel it you are threatened with a warning that it may impact your ability to book more visits. On a positive note, it felt good to help people who need it. I had pretty good luck with the help desk but had to use it way too often. I was paid the proper amount quickly.
