About Dovie

I took care of my Mother-In- Law for two years. We had caregivers come to our home while I was working. I found a lot of satisfaction taking care of her. I was laid off my job in 2010. At that point in my life I knew I wanted to do a job that mattered. So I became a CNA.

    I have worked with seniors since I was 9 years old volunteering at senior living care homes. I have always had a special place in my heart for elderly. As I became an adult I knew I wanted to keep working with them. I have worked with several families in Reno for the last 16 years. I am patient, kind, and will give them the dignity they deserve. I have experience helping with medication reminders and organization, bathing, meal prep, light housekeeping, running errands, and companionship.
