Our Story
RestUp is an app and website that provides businesses and families a marketplace of caregivers that are available for hire on demand. It is like Uber or Lyft but for non-medical caregiving services. RestUp gives family caregivers on-demand access to hundreds of local professional caregivers at affordable rates. It is perfect for occasional respite care or in case of family emergencies. There are no minimums or contracts, you just request a caregiver each time you need one.
Each caregiver's profile is integrated with that of his or her Facebook or LinkedIn profile. Additionally, an option to link to a video introduction is available. A background check and rating system has also been built into the app.
All payments are handled via the app, using the service Stripe, for easy withdrawal from the user's bank account.
For ease in determining the final bill charged to the user, a timeclock is used which can only be initiated when the caregiver is close to the user's home. Then, the caregiver is automatically clocked out when leaving.
