History

Established in 2013.

In 2013, HomeHero launched the fastest, most affordable way for families to find senior home care.

HomeHero came from humble beginnings: founders Kyle Hill and Mike Townsend watched for many years the struggles their parents went through finding reliable in-​home care for their grandparents.

They quickly realized that the country’s home care system was old, antiquated and had been grossly neglected by the tech industry for too long. It was only inevitable that a marketplace company would come in and consolidate this highly-​fragmented market using technology. In doing so, they could help millions of families afford high-​quality, trusted in-​home caregiving services like never before.
