Senior Assistance & Errands

Not every family lives close enough to help with the everyday stuff. Biddy Jobs connects you with neighbors nearby who are ready to lend a hand — whether it’s for yourself or a parent you’re looking out for from a distance.

What people post for senior assistance

• Grocery shopping and pickup — regular runs or a one-time list
• Rides to appointments — doctor visits, pharmacy, hair salon
• Light housekeeping — tidying, laundry, dishes
• Technology help — phones, TVs, WiFi, video calls with family
• Yard and home upkeep check-ins — making sure things are handled
• Companionship visits — a friendly face and some conversation

Available across Broward and Palm Beach County, including Hollywood, Fort Lauderdale, Pompano Beach, Deerfield Beach, Coral Springs, Boca Raton, Delray Beach, Boynton Beach, and West Palm Beach.

How it works

Post the task, describe what’s needed, and set your own price or ask for bids. Compare nearby neighbors ready to help, then pay securely once the job’s done. See the full step-by-step process.

Senior assistance FAQ

Can I post this on behalf of a parent who doesn’t use apps?
Yes — many family members post and manage tasks for a parent or relative directly, then coordinate the visit or pickup by phone.

Is it safe to have someone I don’t know help at home?
Biddy Jobs verifies every user’s identity before they can post or bid, and profiles show ratings and reviews from past tasks so you can choose someone with a track record you trust.

Can I set up a recurring helper for weekly errands?
You can post a new task each time or work with the same Bidder again once you find someone who’s a good fit — there’s no subscription or recurring contract required.
