Our Clients
Mrs. Parks is an 80 year young, energetic senior. She had given up driving and was accustomed to her husband running errands and maintaining the household bills. When he passed away, she considered moving into an assisted care facility but turned to Extra You instead. We visit her weekly and keep her home tidy and organized. We pay her monthly bills. She did not want to part with her car, so we use it to go grocery shopping, gift shopping and to take her to needed doctors appointments. We make sure the car is always full of gas and is well maintained, and that she has everything that she needs to maintain her independent lifestyle. 16 hours per month retainer
Mrs. Stillman, a widow with two adult children (both of whom lived out of town) wanted to get her papers in order. Prior to her husband passing away, she had never filed or paid bills. She was unaware of what was in the filing cabinets. Extra You went through years of papers, shredded everything she was keeping that wasn't necessary and put everything in order. She wanted her children to be able to access everything easily upon her death.
Carol is a successful single mom of two. When juggling home, kids and career became too stressful, she turned to Extra You.

We visit weekly to help maintain organization, drop off and pick up her dry cleaning, transport family dog to and from the spa, and work with the nanny to maintain the home. 20 hours per month retainer

Mary travels out of the country and when she is gone she has her mail held. She use to shop via magazine prior to the internet and use to receive "every known magazine to man." She had so much mail it took her 5+ hours to go through it all upon returning home. She was also a victim of identity theft at one time, so she shredded anything with her name on it. She hired Extra You initially to get rid of all the magazines and JUNK mail. She can now return home and go through her mail within an hour.
